Choosing USB to Key Adapter
Why are there 2 different Key to USB Adapters? and... What's the difference?
MY-KEY-MOUSE and MY-KEY-SERIAL are hardware interfaces to connect your computer/tablet to a straight or iambic key via a USB port using compatible software. MY-KEY-MOUSE supports an HID compatible software controlled USB mouse interface while the MY-KEY-SERIAL supports a common USB to serial interface.
