I have been using a wired keyboard and mouse for the past couple years with my MK2, SLB and micro-PC (MeLe Quiter 4C Fanless PC Win11 Pro).
I am occasionally frustrated by the wires.
I am considering purchasing a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.
Has anybody had any issues with using wireless keyboard and mouse ?
BTW, I am using USB-C from the SLB to the micro-PC (with ferrite beads at each cable end).
I am going to be changing to Ethernet, I just haven’t gone there… yet.
@R.Portman I’ve been using a logitech wireless keyboard and mouse forever without issues. I also use a samsung table to control gSender. No issue there, either.
So far pretty happy with it. I’m not necessarily a fan of touchpads but this helps eliminate any dust-related issues with a mouse and keeps my cords to a minimum.
In my earlier setup, my pc in my office was handling cad and cam. To work with the mill 10m into the other room, I had two different bluetooth keybords connected to it and have recorded no trouble with them.
I now have a dedicated pc at the machine using a wired keyboard and a bluetooth mouse. The mouse goes to sleep pretty fast and needs to be woken by clicking a mouse button resulting in possible random activation within gsender. I’ve implemented a pause on start to be sure the machine doesn’t suddenly run a programm when all I wanted was waking up my mouse, like it did a few weeks ago.
I might replace it with a wired mouse, someday. I don’t like risking rezeroeing anything and screw over a perfectly good piece of wood, but I also don’t like the extra wire it will give.
I also don’t like needing to wake my mouse by switching it on off and on again with that tiny ass switch at the bottom side.
Either I learn to live with it, or it ends up on the lawn beneath my window waiting for me to roll out the lawn blender.
