Three pedals preprogrammed for mouse button actions.
Features
The X-keys Media Player Foot Pedal comes preprogrammed with the USB media commands for Play/Pause, Previous Track, and Next Track. Plug and play on all computers and on tablets supporting USB HID input. This pedal installs as a media device and does not interfere with on-screen keyboards.
Pedals may also be reprogrammed with volume up and down or any media, keyboard, mouse, or game controller command. This foot pedal has all the capabilities of our standard XK-3 USB Foot Pedal.
