Keyboard Battery Installation Power-low Indicator LED

When the green power-low indicator LED on the keyboard flashes – until batteries are
replaced or when the keyboard enters sleep mode – replace both batteries immediately
to avoid interruption.

Connecting the Keyboard to the Computer

• Remove the USB receiver dongle from its storage located at the back of the keyboard. Plug
the dongle into an available USB connector on the notebook or desktop MCE computer.
Wait for the system to detect new hardware and run through auto-install process in the OS.

Connecting and Synchronizing the Keyboard to the PC

• The USB receiver and keyboard are pre-synchronized at the factory for your
convenience. The keyboard should be functioning now. Next, turn on the keyboard
power switch located at the back of the keyboard by placing the power switch to
“On” position.

• Make sure the keyboard is within 30 feet from the PC. This product is designed with
RF technology without line of sight. Nevertheless it’s recommended to keep the
receiver dongle away from metal walls/panels to achieve its full transmission strength.

Page 5 Page 6

• This keyboard is designed with the latest RF technology. Once the link is established
between the keyboard and the receiver dongle, they stay connected even when the
keyboard is turned off and out of range. If for any reason the connection is lost,
or there’s interference in the vicinity, you may reset the connection by doing
the following:
Remove the receiver dongle from the PC, wait 3 seconds and plug the receiver back
into the computer’s USB port. Press the “ID” button located at the back of the
keyboard for 3 seconds. The RF (radio frequency) will be reset to another channel.
If this doesn’t clear the interference, power off the computer and power on again to
reset the RF channel.

• Please note that there’s no “ID” button on the receiver dongle. This product is
designed with the latest RF connection technology and the receiver is set to
automatically scan and synchronize with the keyboard each time the computer is
powered on.

Operating Instructions

• This keyboard is designed to be held in 2 hands and typed with 2 thumbs. For
comfortable typing, position your index fingers slightly below the 2 mouse buttons to
avoid accidental trigger of the mouse buttons.

if you are holding the keyboard with both hands. Alternatively you may swipe the
touchpad with two fingers simultaneously if you are holding the keyboard in one

30 minutes of idle/non-operation. To wake it up, simply press any key on the
keyboard. Any keys, including the hot keys, with the exception of the orange-color Fn
key, will wake up the keyboard.

Troubleshooting and Operating Tips

• Keyboard no longer works:
Make sure the USB receiver dongle is securely plugged into the PC.
Check the batteries for correct installation. Remove the batteries and reinsert them to
ensure proper contact is made. If battery power is low as indicated by power-low
indicator LED, replace batteries at your earliest convenience. Please refer to the section
“Installing Batteries.”

• Typing or cursor movements become erratic:
Make sure the keyboard remains within 30 feet of the computer and receiver dongle.
If necessary, move closer for better radio reception. RF signal strength is dependent on
the environment around the transmitter (keyboard) and receiver (dongle.)
Remove the USB receiver dongle from the computer, plug it back into the computer’s
USB port, and press the ID button at the back of the keyboard for 3 seconds to avoid
interference or to reestablish the link. Please refer to the section “Connecting the
Keyboard to the Computer.”
It is possible that computer monitor or a large metal object interferes with the
receiver’s radio reception. Try to reposition the computer and receiver dongle to avoid
metal object(s).

• Cursor control moving too fast or too slow:
Adjust the mouse cursor travel speed in Windows Control Panel.

Page 15 Page 16

• Touchpad doesn’t function after power is turned on:
Wait approximately 3 seconds before using the touchpad after the keyboard is powered
on. The touchpad is built with its own on/off mechanism which follows after the
keyboard’s on/off switch.
