A brushed anodised metal frame and bevelled brushed metal faceplate give it a clean, office-ready finish, while full-height angled keys slope towards the back of the keyboard for a tactile touch-typing feel.
Programming is handled directly on the keyboard, with no computer software required. Macros can be created, existing key programming can be changed, and a second programmable layer is available via the FN key. Settings can be updated as needed using the in-built re-writable EEPROM. Integrated multimedia functions, clear key legends and status LEDs for Caps, Num and Scroll Lock complete the everyday essentials.

The keyboard uses sealed contact mechanical key switches, known for their durability and tactile feedback.
How do I access the secondary programmable layer?
The secondary programmable layer is typically accessed by holding down the designated 'FN' key in combination with other keys.
What is the warranty period for this keyboard?
Warranty information is specific to the retailer and region. Please check the product packaging or consult the seller for details on the warranty period.
Can the keyboard's backlight be adjusted?

Troubleshooting
Keyboard not recognized by the computer

Keys are not responding or acting erratically
Disconnect and reconnect the keyboard. If the issue persists, try restarting your computer. Ensure no liquid has entered the keyboard.
Macro or custom key programming not working
