Wireless keyboard transceiver through IPAC?
Ummon:
I'm wondering if the IPAC can provide enough via the pass-thru to power the transceiver for my wireless keyboard? I also have two P360s connected to the 5v.

I'm a bit confused by this question- any chance of a quick sketch of your current/proposed control setup?

I think he's asking if he plugs the wireless transmitter from his keyboard into the PS2 slot on the IPAC, will it transmit well enough to get a signal. I'm planning on getting a wireless keyboard for my cab as well, so I'm interested in this.
Ultimarc's site doesn't say anything specifically, but since it lets a keyboard pass through, I would think it should work. Only way to be sure is to try it out, but I don't have a wireless keyboard....

Yes this should work, or you could use a USB wireless keyboard.

I'm still lost by this - my wireless keyboard and mouse (and most I've seen) have the transmitter built into the mouse and keyboard itself, with only the receiver having a cable and USB/PS/2 plug on the end. Are you saying your keyboard has a dongle or something that plugs into it, then a receiver that plugs into the PC? If this is the case, how would you power the ipac? See I'm picturing this:
I would love to have a wireless panel with an i-pac but this is the only way I can picture what you are proposing.
