USB Keyboard

[g.putland]

Hi,

 

I am having trouble attaching a USB keyboard to my Jester Desk. I am just plugging it in and resetting the desk.

 

I have tried multiple keyboards that I know work.

 

Would appreciate any help,

Can you explain the issue in greater detail?

assuming this is a jester 12/24 or a 24/48 then this may be to do with the age of the desk.

the early revision (R1) motherboards did not support keyboards.

If you go into super user, you should get the desk type and version of OS it is running on, serial number and on the new version of the PCB it should also say R2.

if you PM me the s/n i can work out the age and let you know if it a R1 or R2 version if it is not displayed.

Hi,

 

Thanks for the responses. You've hit the nail on the head. It's a Jester 48 R1

 

So it won't ever work then,

 

Thanks for the help though

Question about the keyboard.

So I have a Jester 48 version 4.1R2.

 

What Keyboard doing / working on ?

Calling memory ? writing name Effect ? Other things ?

 

I try a keyboard, (Apple) and it s not working...

And on the notice there is no explication about keyboard connecting...

Thank for your help

Hi Eric,

A Windows compatible Keyboard can be attached to Jesters via USB to name cues/submasters. Try using a Keyboard designed for Windows PCs and see if that works for you.

Kind regards

Most (possibly all?) Apple keyboards have a built in USB hub, which might be causing it not work.

Thank a lot.

I will try with PC Keyboard.
