Troubleshooting

Keyboard not recognized by PC

Try using a different USB port, or switch to a different connection mode (e.g., from wireless to wired). Ensure the USB cable is securely connected at both ends. Restart your computer.

Wireless connection is unstable or drops frequently

Ensure the keyboard is sufficiently charged. Minimize interference by moving other wireless devices away from the keyboard and receiver (if applicable). Try re-pairing the device via Bluetooth or RF.

Keys are not responding or are registering incorrectly

Check if the keyboard is in 'Zone mode' or if any special function keys are accidentally activated. For specific keys, verify the actuation point settings in Gear Link. If a specific key is faulty, consider hot-swapping the switch.

OLED touchscreen is unresponsive

Restart the keyboard by disconnecting and reconnecting the USB cable or powering it off and on. Ensure the latest firmware is installed via Gear Link.

RGB lighting not working

Check lighting settings in Gear Link or via keyboard shortcuts. Ensure RGB is not disabled in 'Zone mode'. Try resetting keyboard settings.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The ROG Azoth 96 HE supports tri-mode connectivity. For wireless connection via ROG SpeedNova or Bluetooth, ensure the keyboard is charged and pair it with your device following the on-screen prompts or by using the keyboard's function key combinations. For wired connection, simply plug the included USB cable into your computer. The OLED touchscreen and control knob allow for initial setup and basic configuration directly on the keyboard. For advanced customization, access the Gear Link web app by visiting the specified URL and connecting your keyboard.

Compatibility: This keyboard is compatible with most operating systems, including Windows and macOS, due to its universal keyboard design and the web-based Gear Link app. Ensure your device has a compatible USB port for wired connection or Bluetooth capability for wireless pairing.

Care: To maintain optimal performance and aesthetics, regularly clean the keyboard. Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth for dusting. For tougher grime on keycaps or the body, use a slightly damp cloth (water only, ensure it's well wrung out) and wipe gently. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Keep the keyboard away from liquids and extreme temperatures. The keycaps are designed for durability, but gentle cleaning will prolong their pristine look. If you encounter any issues with the switches, they are hot-swappable, allowing for easy replacement.
