8/26/2016 – Does having a numeric keypad on the keyboard affect the functionality of this keypad and how would the two interact with . . .

Response From Speech Recognition Solutions: The external numeric keypad simply acts identically to the one on the larger keyboard and does not in any way impact the functionality of the main keyboard. If you already have a numeric keypad as part of the main keyboard, the external one is, in some respects, entirely redundant. Beyond being able to locate it separate from the main keyboard, it doesn't offer any additional advantages. Let me know if you have any additional questions. Jon

However, if you have an embedded keypad, one that overlays the alphabetic keys, then there may be some adverse interactions on some systems. There are reports of people not being able to use external keypads with embedded keypad keyboards because use of the external keypad causes the embedded keypad to use the numeric rather than alphabetic version of the key(s). -Wayne
