Using a mouse with the 6400M

Member ✭✭
in FLEX-6000 Signature Series

GM,

I saw a video that VA3MW did on Youtube. He was showing the 6400M and 6600M. He was talking about the basic how to type stuff. But I noticed that when he was on the 6400M he was using his mouse to operate the menu items, instead of the touchscreen. Is there a way that one can use a mouse on the 6400M front screen?

    Correct. I was using development software.

    Hi Mark, there is no mouse input for the M models or Maestros. Mike was probably using an emulator to show the Maestro screen on YouTube.

    Thanks for the explanation.

    The OEM tablet in the M radios and the Maestro does not have any provision for external devices like a mouse or keyboard.

    The touchscreen is not bad. Don't get me wrong. But to be able to use a mouse to me would be a great feature! I know that I can connect an external mouse to my Ipad Pro. And I can even do that via Bluetooth. I'm not sure if the Flexradio's have Bluetooth or not. I'm wondering if I am one of few who would like to use a mouse with their M Version? I would be anxious to see how many would like to see that happen.

    Ditto on the mouse / keyboard comment. Wheather Windows or Linux there should be support for at least a mouse. Do the necessary drivers for m/k support require too much processing time or do they impact the radio operation?
