Hardware Installation
Plug your DV Keyboard directly into any available USB port on your computer - there is no need to shut down the
computer first. Once the computer has recognized the new hardware, the keyboard's standard functions will be
ready for use, however, in order to take advantage of the programmable jog/shuttle controller, Specialty keys, or
multimedia keys, you must install the keyboard driver from your installation CD. The keyboard also features two
USB ports of the back of the keyboard - perfect for plugging in a mouse or other USB device.
Software Installation
To install the drivers insert the installation CD into an available CD-ROM drive on your computer. The installation
utility should start on its own automatically. If it doesn't, you can start it manually by going into Windows Explorer
and clicking on My Computer. Find the listing for the CD-ROM you inserted the driver disk into. Click on it to open
and then find the "setup" or "setup.exe" icon and double-click on it. This will launch the driver installation. Follow
the instructions on your screen to complete the driver installation. It should take less than a minute on most sys-
tems. At the end of the installation it will ask you if you want to execute the keyboard driver now. Select yes and
your keyboard should now be correctly installed.
Launching the DV Keyboard Settings Program
To confirm its installation or to load or modify your keyboard settings, launch the DV Keyboard utility pro-
gram from your Windows Start menu under All Programs/ DV Keyboard / DV Keyboard Settings. You can
also double click on the DV Keyboard icon in the Notifications area of your Taskbar.
Interface Basics
The driver interface is designed to be simple and straightforward. It is divided into two sections: Jog/Shuttle and
Multimedia. You can toggle back and forth between the two sections by clicking on the Jog/Shuttle and Multimedia
tabs in the upper left corner.
Presets For Popular Applications Included
The DV Keyboard software already includes presets for popular applications. If you click on the drop-down window
next to “Target Application” and see the software you are using, you should be ready to use the keyboard.
