[Elecraft] Multi-Device mouse and keyboard

[Jack Brindle]

As you noted, you will need two Unifying receivers - one for the K4 and the other for the PC. Be sure to pair both devices (mouse and keyboard) with both receivers - it is probably best to have channel one set to one receiver, and channel two to the other  on both keyboard and mouse.
After that you will need to switch both the keyboard and the mouse individually between the two receivers. The K780 uses the F1, F2 and F3 keys to select its current channel. Hold them a while to select the channel you want. Use the “easy-switch” button to change channels on the mouse.

You might want to install the Options software on your PC to add functionality to your devices. It won’t run on the K4, of course.

If you have any questions, just ask. Yes, there are hams at Logitech, at least a few of us…

I can only get the Mouse to work on both if I use one Unifying RCVR/Dongle in the K4 and another in the PC. The Mouse will toggle between the devices.  I can get the Kybd working on either the PC or the K4, but not both.
