USB HID Keyboard Interface
The TriCoder can operate as a USB HID keyboard on both a PC and a Macintosh. A USB cable and Setup configuration change is all
that is needed. To install the TriCoder as a USB keyboard, use a cable C22. Use the following procedure and the diagram below to
install the TriCoder between the keyboard and computer:
Take the large flat end of the C22 cable and plug it into your TriCoder. Make sure it is fully engaged – you will hear a click.
Take the USB end of the C22 cable and plug it in to the back of the computer to any free USB port.
