Checklist: Setting up an X-keys USB Keypad
Avid iNEWS Command interfaces with the X-keys
®
USB keypad for playout control. The
X-keys USB keypads connect to the USB port the Command Workstation and offer up to
fifty-eight user-reprogrammable keys for one-button access to playout functionality.
n
X-keys is third-party hardware. Command natively supports a variety of X-keys devices,
which are configured through the Command Workstation application. Native support gives
users an added level of functionality that is not available through the X-keys Macro Works
software. See the Avid iNEWS Command ReadMe for the specific X-keys devices that are
supported.
You can also use the Macro Works software, a keyboard emulator, with any X-keys device.
For more information on X-keys USB keypads, see that manufacturer’s documentation on
www.xkeys.com.
Setting up the keypad to control playout through Command requires the completion of the
following tasks:
Tasks Refer to...
