Using a USB Keyboard
To aid in navigation and data entry, a standard USB keyboard can be connected to the 664. To use a
USB keyboard, connect the male USB A plug of the keyboard into the supplied USB A female adapt-
er, then connect the keyboard to the left panel USB B jack on the 664 with the supplied USB cable.
Change the Setup Menu option SYSTEM > USB Port to Keyboard.
Keyboards with an embedded USB hub are not compatible. Some keyboards must be disconnected when
powering the 664 up and only connected after the 664 has booted.
Whenever the on-screen keyboard is displayed, an attached USB keyboard can be used to enter data.
