We just purchased a brightsign, and I have updated the firmware to the latest version (1.0.73). I downloaded the demo file, and copied it to the CF card. The demo launches to the menu, but I cannot select any of the options. I have tried several USB keyboards (microsoft / kensington / viewsonic) without any luck. All the keyboards power up, and I can select / deselect the num lock, caps lock, etc, but I cannot get the hd600 to accept any commands.....any suggestions?

  The brightsign demo you downloaded works with a mouse or with a GPIO button board. That particular demo doesn't support keyboards. You can very easily write a script that will playback the different options depending on what keyboard button is pressed.
  
  
  
  Here are some USB mice you can try.
  
  
  
  Belkin MiniScroller Mouse F8e841-BLK
  
  Dynex MiniScroller Mouse DX-OM20
  
  Logitech First/Pilot Wheel Mouse M-BE58
  
  Logitech Mini Optical Mouse M-UV55A
  
  Logitech Optical Mouse (3 buttons) M-BT96a
  
  Logitech Marble Mouse T-BC21
  
  
  
  
  
  These Mice worked when used in with a USB hub:
  
  Kensington PilotMouse Optical Wireless 72216
  
  Logitech MX310 Optical Mouse M-BP86
  
  Logitech LX3 Optical Mouse m-bw112a
  
  Logitech Cordless Mini optical mouse RBS111
