USB receiver is now ready for operation.
1.3 Installation of the keyboard
Recommended requirement for that is the successful installation of the USB receiver under point 1.2.

Switch the I/O sliding switch to ON position!
Advice:
The USB receiver and the keyboard are factory-made already synchronised on the same channel. Normally you have not to make a new-synchronisation (as described under point 2.4). The keyboard is immediately functioning.
Now you can check the functionality by pressing any key of your keyboard. If you press the Windows key, there has to open for instance the Windows Pop-up menu down left on your screen. If so, your wireless keyboard is working correctly now. If not, please synchronise the USB receiver and the keyboard again like described under point 1.4.
Advise:
Should the functionality be influenced by other users applying their wireless keyboard close-by, make a new-synchronisation as described under point 1.4.
1.4 New-synchronisation of the radio channel
The keyboard is equipped with the newest radio technology allowing in the easiest manner to make a new-synchronisation.
In contrast to conventional or older wireless keyboards on the market here is to press the PAIRING key on the back side only 1 time, whereby the new synchronisation signal is transmitted to the USB receiver . Thereby a complete, extremely comfortable handling from the user’s location is possible without the need to stand up for pressing the synchronisation key of the receiver, which is usually located in the USB port of
the PC.
The process of synchronisation can take up to 10 seconds and is signalised by flashing up of the PAIRING-LED (left LED on front side of the keyboard), which goes out after successful procedure. The keyboard is now re-synchronised.
Check now the functionality of the keyboard like described under point 1.3.
In implausible case the keyboard does not work even after new-synchronisation, you have the following options to solve this problem:
Repeat the procedure including the hardware reset of the USB receiver (conventional synchronisation) by pressing at first the LED key on the USB receiver (blue LED of the USB receiver stays on 3 seconds in a row) and plug-in USB adapter and dongle into keyboard to pair . In very rare cases it is necessary to repeat this routine several times until the right “radio channel” was found.
2. How to use the keyboard
After successful launch enjoy now during the operation a free and independent choice of location up to approx. 10 m distance to the PC. More or less range can be caused, like mentioned above, by metallic dividing walls, other computer cases, monitors, ZIP drives, loudspeakers, switching power supplies etc., but also by different loading capacity of the batteries. For this, the status LEDs on front side of the keyboard give you information about the current operating condition.
2.1 Meaning of status LEDs
Pairing -LED indicates that the keyboard and the USB receiver are in Pairing-Mode, that means during manual initiation of the new-synchronization routine to one shared “radio channel” (ID). It goes out after successful synchronisation.
Battery Low -LED indicates that the load condition of the batteries is below 2.4 Volt. It flashes until a
new battery was inserted or the battery was used up completely.
Besides it flashes only when the keyboard is not in Sleep -Modus (idle state).
Charging -LED
Plug-in the USB cable , the LED will flashing when battery is charging.
When the Battery is full recharged , the LED will always bright.
2.2 Special operation modes of the keyboard
Sleep -Mode
When 30 minutes happens no input in your keyboard respectively touchpad, the keyboard turns automatically into Sleep -Mode (idle state) to save battery capacity.
Wake up -Mode
For activating the keyboards from Sleep-Mode press any key on your keypad
(not the left or right mouse function key of the touchpad or the touchpad itself!).
Reconnect -Mode
After reactivation the keyboard connects automatically again with the USB receiver .
Depending on environmental conditions for the radio transmission it needs for that between less than 1 second up to few minutes.
