Connections can be assigned as:
- Keyboard key
- Gamepad Button
- Gamepad analog axis with or without auto-calibration and center dead-zone.
- Mouse button (including double-click)
- Quadrature Mouse Pair. X or Y axis. Normal or reverse direction.
- Quadrature left/right button presses.
- PC-controlled LED output using special software
- PC Num/Scroll/Caps lock LEDs
- U-HID locally-controlled LED output based on the state of any switch.
- 5 Volt output (30ma max)
- Ground
- No special drivers or application changes needed except for PC-controlled LEDs which has an API with code examples.
- Simple open pin-header connectors allow use of separate or composite modular wiring harnesses.
- U-Config configuration utility allows the connections to be configured for each device type, and keycodes and other attributes set.
- Switches handled by super-fast logic using an individual de-bounce state counter for each input giving ultimate performance for gaming applications.
- No key ghosting or blocking ever.
- Advanced keycode/button programming with in-built shift feature. Includes macro capability
- 12-bit analog axis support
- Configuration utiity interacts real-time with the board and all settings stored instantly in Flash ROM on the board.
- Single Mini-USB connector for PC (or MAC) connection. No separate power needed
- 50 Truly independent inputs allow all switches to be commoned to ground. No matrix or diodes
- Modular 8-way + ground harnesses available.
- Extended switch harnesses available.
- ESD protected inputs. Vital for high-footfall public applications.
- All settings stored in Flash ROM and retained after power-off.
- Configuration can be changed on-the-fly using a command-line. The board can assume a completely different layout instantly.
- Simple-to-use PC Configuration application.
- Up to 8 boards can be connected. All are configured using the same U-Config utility.
- Key and Button functions can have one primary and one secondary code assignment.
- Secondary assignments are invoked by first activating a “U-HID Shift” connection.
- Any connection can be assigned as a shift.
- Unique separately-programmable “button down” and “button up” events allow use of all types of normally-closed, normally-open, or active high/low controls.
- “Button down” and “button up” can be separately assigned as primary or secondary codes.
- Controls can be assigned as “normal” or “pulse”.
- Toggle (push on-push off) and flip-flop modes available.
- Programmable analog offset and scale factor for all analog axes.
- X and Y axes can be configured with adjustable center dead-zone and auto-calibration.
- Extended macro capability.
- User-upgradeable firmware for future enhancements and customizations.
