Abstract

See full text

A system and method for configuring a radio frequency (RF) peripheral device using bi-directional communication. A computer may be coupled to a first radio frequency transmitter/receiver (RFTR). The first RFTR may transmit an RF signal comprising configuration information to a second RFTR in an RF peripheral device. The RF peripheral device may be configured using the configuration information in the RF signal. For example, configuration information such as keymaps, status indicators, and annunciators and other beacon activators may be sent to the RF peripheral device. A status indicator such as a Caps lock indicator, a Num lock indicator, and a Scroll lock indicator may be activated/deactivated. Alternate key layouts may also be activated/deactivated using configuration information. Other configuration information may also be transmitted to and used to configure the RF peripheral device.
