X-keys Desktop Output Report

The following types of output reports are available; Set LEDs, Set Unit ID, Set Key and Check Key.  The Unit ID is a value between 0 and 255 which can be set and read.  This number stays permanently in the device independent of computer. It is useful if more than one device of the same PID will be connected to the same computer in order to distinguish the devices uniquely.  The Set Key and Check Key reports are for the dongle feature, non PC users please contact P. I. Engineering for further details.
