You can use an IR-keyboard with PSP XTI. You can edit the file pspirkeyb.ini and modify it according to your IR keyboard model.
- 1 - Compaq/HP foldable keyboard.
- 2 - Snap'n'Type.
- 5 - HP Slim keyboard.
- 8 - Belkin IR (not IrDA).
- 9 - Flexis FX-100 keyboard.

Use the arrows of your keyboard to navigate through the menus. The Enter key is use to validate, and the Escape key to cancel.
Inside the TI-92 window, you can press Tab to return to the emulator menu.
- The keys CTRL-A -> CTRL-G are mapped to F1 -> F7.
- The key CTRL-O -> Diamond.
- The key Ctrl-P -> 2nd.
- The key Ctrl-K -> Hand.
- The key Ctrl-L -> Home.
Load TI-92 Application files (92)
You can save any TI 92 files (with .92* file extension) on your PSP Memory Stick. Then press Select+L-Trigger+R-Trigger in the main menu and use the file selector to choose one application to load.
It may happen that the file is not properly loaded, and so you have to try again.
To manage applications already loaded in your TI-92, you can use the VLINK menu (activate button 2ND and press the "-" key).
You can find applications from ticalc.org and Official TI FTP site.
If you don't have enough memory to load all the program files you can use the Save slot option to save differents states of the emulator (save slot). You will then be able to load them, one at a time for different usages.
Load Key Mapping files (KBD)
For given games, the default keyboard mapping between PSP Keys and TI-92 keys, is not suitable, you can write your own mapping file to overcome the issue.
Edit a file with the .kbd extension and put it in the kbd directory. Sample and syntax can be found in the file default.kbd.
Keyboard mapping file can be loaded in the main menu. Use the Keyboard menu to configurate, load and save your keyboard mapping files inside the emulator.
