Overview Universal Serial Bus (USB) port technology has emerged in response to the proliferation of external peripheral devices (keyboards, mice, scanners, digital cameras, removable drives, etc.), that are increasingly being connected to the latest generation of PCs. The USB is much faster than conventional bus ports (i.e., serial, parallel, PS/2), and since it does not require any IRQs, the problem of IRQ conflict is eliminated, allowing many more devices to be attached to the system.

Top View 3. 2. 1. 1. Mouse and Keyboard Ports The cables from the PS/2 Mouse and PS/2 Keyboard plug in here. The ports are marked with an icon to indicate which is which. 2. Mouse and Keyboard LEDs The LED lights when its corresponding peripheral (mouse or keyboard) is connected to the UC-100KMA. It flashes when its corresponding peripheral is transmitting data packets. 3. USB A Type Connector This connector plugs into the computer’s USB port, or into a USB Hub that is connected back to the computer.
Installation 1. Before you begin, make sure that power to all the devices you will be connecting up have been turned off. You must unplug the power cords of any computers that have the Keyboard Power On function. Otherwise, the UC-100KMA will receive power from the computer. 2. To prevent damage to your equipment, make sure that all devices you will be connecting up are properly grounded. Connecting Up 1. Plug the PS/2 Mouse and PS/2 Keyboard into the appropriate connectors on the UC-100KMA adapter.
Operating Platform Considerations: Windows 98SE: 1. The first time you start up, Windows detects the UC100KMA’s presence. Follow along with the Installation Wizard to install the appropriate driver for it. 2. There is no need to restart Windows once the driver has been installed. Windows 2000: 1. The first time you start up, Windows detects the UC100KMA’s presence and automatically installs the appropriate driver for it. 2.
Red Hat Linux: USB keyboard and mouse drivers have to be installed on the system before Red Hat Linux will work with the the UC-100KMA. If the drivers aren’t already installed, do the following to install them: 1. With the computer powered off, plug a USB keyboard and mouse into its USB ports. 2. Power on the computer. After the system installs the drivers, you can use the UC-100KMA at any time.
Hotkey Settings Hotkeys are used to select the keyboard layout, reset the USB, select the operating platform that the UC-100KMA works under, and obtain system setting information. Note: 1. Use the Hotkeys to specify your OS and keyboard language layout the first time your run your computer with the UC-100KMA (see the table, on p. 8). 2. After changing the keyboard language layout, you must restart your system in order for the change to take effect.
Hotkey Summary Table The following table shows the Hotkeys and their functions: Hotkey Function Ctrl + F12, F1 Selects the PC Compatible (Windows, Linux, etc.
System Information Invoking the system setting information hotkey returns a code that looks similar to the example, below: O 03 L 33 Where O represents the Operating Platform, and L represents the keyboard language. The codes for the operating platform and keyboard language are provided in the table on page 8. Sun Wake Up Function Normal use of either the mouse or keyboard on Sun systems should intiate the wake up function. If the system fails to respond, press the POWER key ([Ctrl] [4]).
Keyboard Emulation Mappings Sun Keyboard: The PS/2 (101/104) key keyboard can emulate the functions of the Sun keyboard when the Control key (Ctrl) is used in conjunction with other keys. The corresponding functions are shown in the table below. Note: When using Control Key ([Ctrl]) combinatons, press and release the Control key, then press and release the activation key.
Mac Keyboard: The keyboard emulation mappings from the Mac keyboard to the PS/2 keyboards (101 key and 104 key), are listed in the table below. Note: When using key combinatons, press and release the first key (Ctrl or Alt), then press and release the activation key.
