Setting Up and Using Your PC

Connecting Multimedia Accessories 

WARNING

To avoid electrical shock and harm to your eyes by laser light, do not open the laser 
module. The laser module should only be serviced by service personnel. Do not attempt 
to make any adjustment to the laser unit. Refer to the label on the CD-ROM for power 
requirements and wavelength. This product is a class 1 laser product.

Always turn the volume down before connecting the headphones or speakers. This 
avoids discomfort from unexpected noise or static. Listening to loud sounds for 
prolonged periods of time may permanently damage your hearing. Before putting on 
headphones, place them around your neck and turn the volume down. When you put the 
headphones on, slowly increase the volume until you find a comfortable listening level. 
When you are able to hear comfortably and clearly, without distortion, leave the volume 
in that position.

1

Connect the HP multimedia keyboard to the PC. 

The connectors are 

color-coded for easy matching.

2

Connect the microphone and headphones (or amplified speakers) to 
the keyboard.

Note

Connect devices such as a smart card reader to both a serial connector and a mouse port (not 
a keyboard port, which does not provide enough power).
