4.3.7. USB and Power Section

The KeyStep Pro is a standalone product and can be used by itself without a host computer.

To do this, simply connect the included 12 V power supply adaptor to the KeyStep Pro and

switch it on. To make life easier for international travelers, the 'universal' power supply

adaptor (12V DC, 1.0 A, center positive) includes interchangeable leads, enabling you to use

the KeyStep Pro in most countries of Planet Earth.

The USB connector provides a data connection to your computer or tablet for those

occasions when you want to use the KeyStep Pro with a host device. When working this

way, simply connect the KeyStep Pro to your host device with the supplied USB cable and

switch it on.

WARNING!: Although the KeyStep Pro might seem to work OK when you power it up with a power

bank, we strongly advise you NOT to power it this way. The KeyStep Pro needs a lot of current for its
LEDs and analog output. Using a defective or partially charged power bank could damage the KeyStep
Pro.

4.3.8. Kensington Lock Port

The KeyStep Pro is highly portable and easy to carry, but it should be carried away only

when you want it to be, and not by a thief!

We've included a Kensington lock slot on the far right edge of the back panel so you can

secure it to the surface of your choice.
