Keypad Installation
The Port Keypad is designed to connect to a standard RS-232 serial
port. To install the keypad, plug the keypad DB9 connector into an
available serial port on the back of your computer. If your computer
has a 25-pin serial port socket, you will have to use a DB9-to-DB25
converter to connect the keypad.
Software Installation
The Port Keypad Manager software is required for the operation of the
keypad. To install the software, insert the diskette in your computer
and click on File, Run (in Windows 3.1x) or Start, Run (in Windows
95). Then type in A:SETUP or B:SETUP, depending on the drive letter
of your floppy disk drive, and click on OK. The setup program will
guide you through the installation.
Once you have successfully completed the software installation, start
the Port Keypad Manager by clicking on its icon, or by double-
clicking the UKP.EXE filename in the Windows 3.1x File Manager or
the Windows 95 Explorer.
If the Port Keypad Manager launches in its minimized state, double-
click its icon (in Windows 3.1x) or its task bar button (in Windows 95)
