Re: Exernal USB keyboard as input device??

I haven't done it, so I don't know if it would work.

However, here's something to try. Create a new empty robot project in LabVIEW. Delete the drive code in Teleop but keep the Joystick VIs. There should be a raw output on the Joystick Get VI, right-click that and create an indicator. Plug your keyboard into your DS on USB1, then switch to the Robot Main VI and click the run arrow. After it deploys, go back to the Teleop VI's front panel. Mash the keyboard and observe results.

If you get nothing, then I'd suggest waiting for someone more knowledgable in this area to post or do some more research on your own.
