1.1.4 Using a Keyboard
You can use a USB keyboard with the DS-L1. For frequent text or character entry, you'll find
using a keyboard most convenient. Be sure to use a recommended type of keyboard. Not all USB
keyboards are compatible with the DS-L1.
Alphanumeric characters in upper- or lowercase can be used with the DS-L1.
The function keys on the keyboard can be assigned various functions, such as displaying a menu,
freezing or the Capture button for quick operations.
