1) Remove Rugged Keyboard from the packaging. Havis recommends using our Keyboard Mount
(Part # C-KBM-201 - sold separately). These two products are designed to interlock together and
give the user docking, adjustment, and quick release abilities. However, the Rugged Keyboard can
be mounted to any appropriate surface that has VESA 75 or AMPS mounting hole pattern.
2) If not using the Havis Keyboard Mount, determine if your mounting location is equipped with
VESA 75 or AMPS mounting pattern. Install the Rugged Keyboard to your mounting device using
(4) M4 x 0.7mm screws (Hardware Kit Item #1). NOTE: Length of screw is dependent upon your
specific mounting application. Torque screws to 20 in-lbs (2.3Nm) ± 10%.
3) Insert the USB connector into a compatible USB port on the computer or docking station in your
vehicle.
4) Turn the computer on. Computer will detect and install drivers once the keyboard initiates.
Drivers are standard plug and play.
