HP Supported USB Devices
USB Keyboard
The HP V ISUALIZE B1000/C3000 workstations support USB keyboards. The keyboard
shipped with the workstation provides a localized PC-104, PC-105 or HP-JIS-106
compatible
input device for USB-equipped PA-RISC workstations and other
USB-compatible computers that support the HP-UX operating system. The keyboard
includes a captive cable terminated in a USB Style A connector.
The USB keyboard is designed specifically for use with HP workstations. All keyboard
models with the exception of the JIS-106 layout may also be compatible with conventional
personal computers.
Some applications may expect to use keycodes generated by keys existing on other types of
keyboards. Consult the documentation that accompanies each input device for specific
information concerning its use.
NOTE HIL and PS/2 devices are not supported by the B1000/C3000 workstations.
USB HP Scroll Mouse
The HP scroll mouse (USB) has a left and right button that function the same as most
mice. However, it also has a scroll wheel located between the two buttons that allows for
vertical scrolling in a window. Note that vertical scrolling will only occur if you are in a
window’s vertical scroll bar. This scroll wheel also functions as a middle button when you
press down on it. Essentially, the HP scroll mouse is a three-button mouse.
For general information on the various cursor shapes associated with different areas of HP
CDE while using a mouse, see the Using Your HP Workstation document.
HP Hub for USB Devices
The HP USB hub (part number D6804) provides the ability to connect more than one USB
device to the workstation, as well as the ability to extend your USB device’s cable length.
As an example, you may desire to locate the workstation’s keyboard and mouse at a
greater distance from your workstation. To accomplish this, connect the HP USB hub to
one of the USB connectors on the rear of the system. The keyboard and mouse are then
plugged into the USB hub. This is the only acceptable USB hub configuration currently
supported by Hewlett-Packard.
