USB, RS232 and RS485 plugs available for the Enterpad™

The Enterpad, available with a DIN 5 or a MINIDIN 6 pin keyboard plug since 1989, is also available with a USB plug since 2001. The USB Enterpad was successfully tested with Windows 98ME/XP/2000/Vista. It emulates a regular keyboard without installing any driver because it uses the Windows HID keyboard driver.

The USB Enterpad has proved to be very reliable. It should be considered for all new applications where a USB port is available and when the Operating System supports Human Interface Device (USB keyboard).

The Enterpad is also available with a RS232 port. The RS232 Enterpad may be programmed with one computer and used with any equipment (CNC tool, scale, etc...) with a RS232 port to control it. The same concept applies: just configure the Enterpad from a computer and it will send ASCII or ANSI codes anywhere!

Hint: Are you developing a new electronic product? Use a micro-controller with a RS232 port and a very simple enclosure. By using the Enterpad there is no need to develop a keyboard to control your device.

The Enterpad is also available with a RS485 port. This model is useful when you need to connect several Enterpads on the same computer. By using a single RS485 port, your application keeps on searching through each Enterpad several times per second to find out if a key has been pressed.
