Operation

Use either keyboard interchangeably. Input from both keyboards will go
to the computer. Modifier keys pressed on one keyboard will effect input
from the other.

Keyboards may be “hot-plugged” into the Y-key key without powering
down the computer, but do not attempt to connect or disconnect the Y-key
key to or from the port of a running computer.

Toubleshooting

The Y-key key uses the standard keyboard driver already on your
operating system. Both keyboards must use the same driver. Test each
keyboard independently without the Y-key key to confirm that each will
operate on the computer.
