External Keyboard and Mouse
If you cannot use the BlueScale web interface, using an external keyboard
and mouse connected to the library is useful when you need to enter large
amounts of information. The user interface options available when you use
an external keyboard and mouse are the same as when you use the library’s
touch screen operator panel.
If your library uses the Spectra PC module, you can connect a USA-type
PS/2 keyboard and mouse to the respective connectors on the LCM (see
Figure 8 on page 39).
If your library uses the Spectra LS module, you can connect a USA-type
USB keyboard and USB mouse to the LCM (see Figure 9 on page 39).
Note: If using a non-USA type keyboard, you need to find the
equivalent for some characters like the back slash or forward
slash.
When using a keyboard and mouse connected directly to the library, it
may also be useful to connect a monitor to the monitor port on the
LCM. The monitor displays the same information as the touch screen.
Feedback Required Screens
When the BlueScale software needs you to make a selection or perform an
action it displays a Feedback Required screen. If you do not respond to the
Feedback Required screen within 10 minutes, the request times out and the
action fails.
Not all characters on a USA-type keyboard are supported in the BlueScale user
interface. If a character does not appear on the soft keyboard, then its use is not
supported.
When accessing the library using an external keyboard connected to the library, do
not use the Enter key on your keyboard when making selections in the BlueScale
user interface. Doing so may cause inconsistent behavior in the BlueScale interface.
