Change sticky keys –
Sticky keys refer to the use of the
SHIFT
and
CTRL
keys. Without
the sticky keys feature enabled, you must hold down
SHIFT

another key. For example, to capitalize the letter
a
, you would hold down
SHIFT
and press
a
simultaneously. With the sticky key enabled, you can simply press
SHIFT
and release,
and the next letter you press will be capitalized. The same applies to the
CTRL
key. To
change this setting, press
F

second options menu. Toggle between (Sticky Keys)
ON
and (Sticky Keys)

ENTER
when you have finished.
Change keyboard settings --
There are two settings that apply to the keyboard: key
delay and key repeat.
“
Key delay
”
refers to the response speed from when you type a key
to when it appears on the screen (1 being the fastest and 4 being the slowest).
“
Key
repeat
”
refers to the speed of repetition when you hold down a key (1 being the slowest
and 32 being the fastest). For example, if you have key repeat set to one and you hold
down the letter
a
in a text field, subsequent
a’s
will appear rather slowly. To change these
settings, open the second options menu screen and press
F
3 or select the box labeled SET
KEY SPEED. Use the left and right arrow keys to navigate the window and numerically
type in your desired speeds. When finished press
ENTER
to exit and save changes.

PC (MAC
OR

QuickPAD Pro offers multiple methods of communicating with Macintosh and
Windows-based computers. Depending on the direction of the data transfer, the size of
the file to be transferred and the available interfaces on your computer, you can
determine the method that is best for you. The following information in this section
discusses these different methods, as well as general know-how for transferring files and
setting up the communication links.
2.3.1. Connecting to a Computer
There are three ways to directly connect QuickPAD Pro to a personal computer: USB,
Serial, and Infrared (IR). Both of the physical cables, USB and Serial, come standard in
the QuickPAD Pro package. The IR receiver, however, is an optional purchase and can
be obtained by contacting QuickPAD Technology Corporation.
Connect using a USB cable –
Using any standard USB cable (the one included is black),
insert the square-shaped end into the back of the QuickPAD and the thin rectangular end
into the back of your computer.
Connect the cable only after QuickPAD is turned on.
Since USB is plug-and-play, you should not need to manually install any drivers on your
computer. However, if there is no response or activity from your computer when you
insert the USB cable you may need to manually install a USB driver or adjust the USB
transfer speed. If this is the case, please refer to the troubleshooting guide at the end of
this section.
