About the Built-in Battery

Rechargeable Lithium-ion Polymer Battery :

Batter y Operating Time: Approx. 120 minutes (with

continuous use)
Capacity: 500 mAh (Max) @ 3.7V
Charging the Battery: Use supplied USB cable to
begin charging the battery.
When charging is complete and VK 200 KEYFOB®
all battery status bars will be lled in on the VK 200
KEYFOB® screen.
The Battery icon will scroll indicating remaining
charging bars still required for full charge.
When VK20 0 KEYFOB® is off and charging is
completed “Charged” will be displayed.

8

Charging Time: Approx. 240 minutes

Note

Charging time increases if product is used while
charging.

Cautions

1. For safety reasons, be sure to use only the micro
USB to USB cable specied for this product.

2. Make sure to fully charge the batter y before using
the product for the rst time.

3. Battery charging times may vary slightly depending
on the ambient temperature.

4. The battery may not be charged to 10 0 percent of
its rated cell capacity even when the battery status
on the VK 200 KEYFOB® screen indicates all bars.

5. Using or storing the battery in high temperature,
humidity and pressure environments may cause the
battery to explode.

6. Since the battery is a consumable item, its storage
capacity decreases gradually as time passes.

HOW THIS PRODUCT WORKS

This product emits infrared light from the lower end
of the product to detec t objects such as ngers. When
an object passes through the area illuminated by
the infrared light source, any infrared light reec ting
off the objec t is detected by the sensor. Information
on the position and movement of the object is then
analyzed to per form the product’s role as a keyboard.

Sensitivit y: difference in thickness, shape, and color of
the user’s ngers or operating environment result in
differences in the amount of reected infrared light. If
the amount of reected infrared light is appropriate,
the sensor will have no problem detecting objec ts
such as ngers. However, if the amount of reected
infrared light becomes low because of the causes
mentioned above or some other cause, the keystroke
recognition rate may decrease or your keystrokes
may not be recognized at all. On the other hand, if
the amount of reected infrared light is too high, the
keystroke recognition may become too sensitive or
a “hovering Effect” may occur where a keypress may
occur when you have not yet touched the projec ted
surface. See section “Adjusting the Sensitivity” for
corrective steps.

Conditions to Avoid

1. Avoid direc t sunlight.

2. Avoid low color temperature light source, such as
tungsten, halogen, or incandescent lamp.

3. Avoid uneven or irregular surfaces. Place the
product on at surfaces.

4. Avoid a table or surface that is as transparent or
reective as glass or mirror.

5. Avoid placing any objects within the space between
the main unit and the laser projected keyboard
layout.

NOTE

Because this produc t uses infrared rays, strong

infrared radiation from direc t or reected sunlight

or from tungsten (halogen or incandescent) lighting

may cause operating error.

CAUTION

Although this equipment is classied as Class

2 laser product, for your safety, do not directly

expose your eyes to pattern projection beams or

infrared rays.

4. IDENTIFYING PARTS AND
THEIR FUNCTIONS.

1. Projector: Uses a red laser to project the image of a

keyboard onto a at surface in front of the typist.

2. Sensor: Picks up the infrared light reected of f the

typist’s ngers and triangulates the location of the
reected light to determine which key was pressed.
This sensor provides a keyboard function.

3. IR Light Window: Uses an infrared laser to emit an

invisible plane of light a few millimeters above the
projec tion surface so that the infrared light can be
reected off of the typist’s ngers to the sensor.

FUNCTION IS INCORRECT

If one or more of the above modules are blocked
by some cause, the projec ted keyboard image
may not be displayed correctly or, the location
and movement of the typist’s ngers may not be
recognized correctly. Use only a completely at
surface.
