Keyboard & Mouse Emulation
The Voyager uses a microprocessor to emulate the keyboard and mouse. It is not
necessary to have any keyboard or mouse connected to local unit either at start-up or
during use.
Some mices and keyboards need to be plugged in before boot up.
Do not mix 2 button and three button /scroll mices because it might confuse the
operating system. Normal you can hot plug your mouse and keyboard into the local and
remote Voyager.
Some mice’s do not initialise unless you disconnect the supply shortly.

The PC boots fine with no error messages but the remote keyboard does not
work at all
a) Cable is loose, replug keyboard cable.
b) Wrong cable plugged in, keyboard and mouse cables reversed.
c) Try a different model of keyboard. If the new keyboard works then
original one may be incompatible (some older auto-sensing units may not work with
this product).
