Important tech note on Goldtouch products: Laptop with a Docking Station:
If you are using a laptop through a Docking Station, please be sure to connect
the keypad directly into an available USB port on the computer itself the first
time. Once you have followed the instructions below, you can connect the keypad
through the Docking Station for use.
Multiple computers via KVM switch:
If you are connecting two or more computers through a KVM switch, be sure
to install the keypad onto each computer that will be used before connecting
it to the KVM switch. A KVM switch will not allow the drivers to install automatically;
therefore it is necessary to connect the keypad directly into each computer
for proper installation the first time. Be sure that your KVM switch is for
USB devices, not PS/2.
Desktop or Laptop with limited USB input ports:
Determine the number of available USB ports on your computer. You may want
to add a USB Hub or port expander to accommodate multiple devices like mice,
printers, keyboards, numeric keypads, PDA's, etc.
Connect the keypad directly into a USB port on the computer, power up the computer
and allow Windows to detect the device and install the drivers. Do not attempt
to install via hub or switch, as the keypad must be connected directly to the
computer for correct driver installation. You may see a window that tells you
the hardware is installed and ready for use when it is done.
!!! Do not attempt the plug a Goldtouch keyboard into one of the USB ports
located on the sides of the USB keypad, as these ports are intended only for
low power devices, like mice or USB storage drives. Doing so will cause the
keyboard and keypad to malfunction. !!!
