FAQs

Is this keyboard suitable for QWERTY users?

This keyboard features a QWERTZ (German) layout. While it can be used with QWERTY systems, you will need to adjust your typing input settings in your operating system to match the physical key layout, or adapt to the different key positions.

How large are the keys?

The keys are significantly larger than standard keyboard keys, designed to provide a larger target area for users with reduced dexterity or visual acuity.

What is the purpose of the 2-port USB hub?

The built-in USB hub allows you to connect two additional USB devices, such as a mouse, webcam, or USB drive, directly to the keyboard for added convenience and a cleaner workspace.

Does the keyboard require any software installation?

No, the Accuratus Monster 2 keyboard is a plug-and-play device. It uses standard USB HID drivers that are built into most modern operating systems, so no additional software is needed.

Can I use this keyboard with a Mac?

Yes, this keyboard is compatible with macOS as it uses standard USB HID protocols. You may need to configure your keyboard settings within macOS System Preferences.

How do I clean the keyboard?

Disconnect the keyboard and wipe it with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals. Ensure it is dry before reconnecting.

Troubleshooting

Keyboard not recognized by the computer

Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the keyboard and the computer. Try plugging the keyboard into a different USB port. Restart your computer.

Some keys are not working

Disconnect and reconnect the keyboard. If the issue persists, check for debris around the affected keys. Restart your computer. If the problem continues, contact support.

Keys feel sticky or unresponsive

Disconnect the keyboard. Gently clean the affected keys with a slightly damp cloth. Ensure no liquid seeps under the keys. Allow to dry completely before reconnecting.
