Compatibility

X-keys USB devices require MacroWorks 3 for Windows XP, Vista, or 7 or
ControllerMate for Mac OS-X. The X-keys Professional also has a “Hardware
Mode” which gives it the ability to mimic a USB keyboard or mouse on any
USB enabled operating system (including Linux). Learn more about Hardware
Mode on our web site or contact our Technical Support Department
([e-mail]).

Identifying the Keys

Select appropriate icons or use the blank legend sheet to create your own key
legends. The keycaps snap off with a fingernail or small screwdriver. Apply
the label under the keycap, and replace it. The key caps hold a legend 0.575"
wide and 0.5" high (14.6mm x 12.7mm). Other options are available for
printing legends for multiple units. Contact our Sales Department
([e-mail]) for more information.

Tall and Wide Double-keys

The included double-keys replace two single keys on the X-keys. To install a
double key cap, remove two adjacent keys with the provided key-puller. Press
the double-key in place over the two exposed switch stems and configure it in
MW3.1 by selecting both keys, right-clicking, and selecting “Apply Large Key”.
