Using Your NEC Versa 4-31
External Keyboard/Mouse
You can add a full-size PS/2-style keyboard or PS/2-style mouse to your
NEC Versa system. You can continue to use the system keyboard while an
external keyboard is connected.
If you want to attach both an external keyboard and an external mouse at the
same time, use the optional NEC Y-adapter. For ordering information see
the online NEC Versa Tools Catalog.
Follow these steps to connect an external keyboard/mouse to your system.
1.
Press the Suspend button on the NEC Versa. Check that the system is in
Suspend mode.
!
CAUTION
Make sure the NEC Versa is in Suspend mode (look for the moon
icon on the Status Bar) or Powered off whenever you add or remove
the keyboard. Connecting an external keyboard to the system in Ac-
tive mode can damage the keyboard controller chip.
2.
Connect either the keyboard/mouse cable connector to the key-
board/mouse port on the system.
