A
few anomalies I have found - all in all though it's made my desktop a lot
tidier !
1) Auto repeat not working in W2K - or as you say only
8
characters
2) Extended keyboard keys not supported on PS2
keyboards
(on USB are OK). (Would love to be able to program a function key to
switch) -
I am going to try two keyboards to get around this - one just for switching
-
I think I have one that holds key sequences internally
somewhere.
3) Quite a delay ~5secs in switching using front panel
select switch (think this to allow the USB to settle to new
PC)
4) Can't switch using hot key with USB keyboard (as
per
manual), can use select switch but 3) makes switching
tedious.
5) Channel names transposed when switching using
hotkeys
but correct when switching using front panel select switch - anyone else
get
this ??
6) Sometimes channel names stay on screen indefinitely
-
esc does not cancel -scrollock a few times gets rid and corrects the
problem
in 5) temporarily
7) No beep from unit when I press scrollock twice
(contrary to manual)
8) Belkin site has no specific info on support for
this
model - missing link perhaps
8) Not sure if there is any firmware tweaks or
upgradeability have emailed Belkin TS. (The USB to PS2 adaptor does have
some
limited tweaking and I think that is what is built into the
switch).

Has anybody else
noticed that under Windows 2000, you only get 8 characters
with an
auto-repeat, but Windows 98 works normally?
Is there a registry hack
to stop this, as it is annoying; but at least
Windows 98 is ok, which is
where this would be a real pain for games.

Steve

PC-World
In case anyone in the East London area was looking for
these PC-
World in Beckton had a stack left on a shelf. No price
tags but
when I took it to the till it was £47. Did someone find
cheap all-
in-one cables somewhere for these?
Cheers,
Matt
