Hitch 2 can be programmed for many alternative keyboard commands. Instructions for programming this row of functions can be found in the Getting Started With Hitch 2 article. If Hitch 2 does not appear to be handling programming, we recommend:

  • Ensure that the Program Switch is positioned towards the word “Program.”
  • Be sure the correct programming mode is selected. Note that only the bottom row of Hitch 2 (PR1 through PR5) is available for custom programming.
  • Check that the USB keyboard is securely connected to Hitch 2’s USB port labeled “Keyboard.”
  • Try a different keyboard. AbleNet tries to ensure most keyboards will work for programming, but it’s always possible that some may not.
