FAQs
What does TKL mean?
TKL stands for 'Tenkeyless', meaning it lacks the dedicated numeric keypad found on full-sized keyboards. This makes it more compact and frees up desk space.
Can I customize the LED colors?
The Trust GXT 833 THADO features multicolour LED illumination with various effects, but the colors and effects are pre-set and not individually customizable per key via software.
How do I activate Gaming Mode?
Gaming Mode is typically activated by a specific key combination on the keyboard. Consult your keyboard's manual for the exact shortcut. It disables the Windows key to prevent accidental game interruption.
Is the keyboard mechanical?
The Trust GXT 833 THADO uses membrane key switches, not mechanical ones. This provides a quieter typing experience compared to mechanical keyboards.
What is N-key rollover?
N-key rollover (NKRO) is a feature that allows the keyboard to register multiple simultaneous key presses accurately. This is essential for gaming where complex commands involving several keys are common.
How do I clean the keyboard?
Unplug the keyboard and use a slightly damp, lint-free cloth to wipe the keys and surfaces. Avoid using liquid directly on the keyboard or harsh cleaning agents.
Troubleshooting

Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the keyboard and the computer. Try plugging the keyboard into a different USB port. If the issue persists, restart your computer.

Check for debris under the unresponsive keys. Try using compressed air to clear any obstructions. If a specific key is consistently failing, it may indicate a hardware issue.

Ensure that Gaming Mode is deactivated. If the issue persists, restart the keyboard by unplugging and replugging it.
