2. To add keyboards, complete the following fields:
• System Port Number – Enter the port number
of the keyboard's connection to the
MegaPower CPU. The MegaPower CPU can
support up to 128 keyboards using port
expansion modules. Port expansion modules
convert a single port into four ports. When a
port expansion module is connected to a port,
port numbering adds an alpha character (a, b,
c, d) to each port number; for example, port
one becomes ports 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d; port two
becomes ports 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, and so on.
• Expansion Port – Choose the port on the
expansion port module (if the
MegaPower CPU is so equipped) that the
keyboard will connect to. The choices are a, b,
c, or d.
• Name – Enter a name for the keyboard using
alpha or numeric characters.
3. Left click OK to display the new keyboard
definition or Cancel to close the dialog box

Adding Cameras to Keyboards

To associate cameras with keyboards:
1. Left click on a keyboard (any cell in the desired
keyboard row) in the upper screen.
2. Double-click in either the Camera View Access or
Camera Control Access fields, and enter the
desired camera or range of cameras. See Adding
a Range of Cameras below for detailed
information.
3. Click in another field or press the Tab key on the
keyboard to set the new camera definition.
Adding a Range of Cameras
Enter the pseudo numbers of the cameras or range
of cameras you want to associate with a specific
keyboard. The specified range shows all the enabled
cameras by their pseudo numbers.
For example, Figure 106 displays a range of
cameras for five different keyboards. For Keyboard 1,
the pseudo numbers of the mapped Camera View
Access cameras are 1, 3 through 16, and 19 through
1024. Each camera number or range of camera
numbers is separated by a comma.
