[Elecraft] Genovation keypad & K3/K3S

[Dave Cole (NK7Z)]

Hello Chuck,

If you are referring to the keypad I used in making the 48 key macro 
launcher, I used the CP48 USBHID, as described in line 4 of the page 
located at:

https://www.nk7z.net/adding-external-keypad-k3/

There is a link to the device on that page as well.  Remember, this 
plugs into the P3/SVGA, not the K3 as you originally asked.

The only difference I see today, is the current version is version 2.0, 
while I used version 1.1.  I suspect this is just a software change, 
which will make no matter if so.  I have the keypad image to update the 
keypad which makes it P3 compatible on my site as well.

You will need to have the P3/SVGA to make this work.

73s and thanks,
Dave (NK7Z/NNR0DC)

Now, as I understand the P3 cannot handle more than one USB device and if Elecraft ever adds mouse support to the P3 the Genovation keypad cannot be used at the same time.
