 Evolution eKeys Keyboard User Manual 

 

 
You are probably eager to plug in your eKeys keyboard and get started, but it’s  
sensible to check the installation documentation first. 
 
The single USB cable not only powers the keyboard but also sends MIDI data to and from 
your computer system.   

 
 

 

 

If you are using Windows XP or Mac OS X you can now simply plug the keyboard in to an 
available USB port. Because the eKeys keyboard is class compliant it will work with out 
any further installation.  

 
 
 

 

1. 

Power up your PC.   

2. 

Insert the eKeys Installer CD-ROM.   

 

The installer should open automatically.  If not, select run from the start menu and 

 

type d:\setup.exe where 'd' is your CD-ROM drive, then press ENTER. 

3. 

Click on 'install drivers'.  

4. 

Follow instructions on screen. 

5. 

When finished exit setup. 

6.

start your PC once the installation is complete.
