• Converts Wireless Keyboard to programmable RS232-output keyboard
• Your system does not need USB .. it receives RS232 characters
• Converts USB-Keyboard Codes to simple ASCII
• All keys can be programmed to output custom strings
• Non-ASCII Keys Send 8-bit Characters
• Keyboard LEDs Fully Operational
• ALT/CTRL/NUM LOCK fully functional
• RS-232 Connection To Host W/Selectable Baud/Parity. Baud rates from 600 to 115k
• programmable baud rate (model suffix = E)
• Newer models operate on eXtended power input of 4-30VDC^[1] applied to the DB9, or power jack
• Legacy models operate on 5VDC, or 6-12VDC with/without optional wall adapter

• Systems without USB support, or no HID drivers
• Replacement for RS232 CNC keyboards at reduced cost
• Embedded systems needing wireless keyboards

       WLKB232 is a 2.6" X 1.7" X 0.8" module which provides translation of wireless USB keycodes to serial RS232 characters. This allows even small microcontroller systems to incorporate wireless keyboards without any of the development complexity of USB and HID drivers. RS232 key-cap characters are available from the wireless keyboard by simply plugging the WLKB232 into your system with a DB9 cable. By operating with standard industry-leading wireless keyboards you get the assurance of a reliable RF link.    Manual available here

Typically works with all USB wireless (and wired) keyboards or keyboard/mouse combos which do NOT require special drivers to operate on a PC. Although most wireless keyboards include a driver CD for special features, many work with the default Microsoft OS USB drivers and these will work with the WLKB232.

E-baud models (ending with 'E') provide programmable baud feature which is backward compatible with jumper-only units and eliminates the need to ever open the case.
