FAQs

Do I need to install software on every computer I use the keypad with?

No, the programming is stored directly on the keypad. You only need the Accuratus Matrix software on a Windows computer for initial programming. After that, it works as programmed on any compatible computer (Windows, Mac, Linux).

Can I create custom macros with this keypad?

Yes, the Accuratus Matrix software allows you to create and assign complex macros (sequences of keystrokes) to any of the 24 keys.

How do I create custom labels for the keys?

Each key has a removable top cover. You can print your own labels or text and place them under these covers to customize key identification.

What is the warranty period for the Accuratus S24B?

The Accuratus S24B comes with a 1-year warranty.

Is this keypad compatible with macOS and Linux out of the box?

It is plug-and-play for basic typing functions on macOS and Linux. For full programmability and custom shortcuts, it must first be programmed on a Windows machine.

What are EPOS-grade membrane keys?

EPOS-grade membrane keys are designed for high durability and frequent actuation, typically found in point-of-sale systems, indicating a robust and long-lasting key mechanism.

Can I use this keypad with a tablet?

Yes, if the tablet supports USB input (e.g., via an adapter), the keypad can be used. Its compact size also makes it well-suited for tablet setups.

Troubleshooting

Keypad not recognized by computer

Ensure the USB cable is securely connected. Try plugging into a different USB port. If the issue persists, try programming it again on a Windows machine as a reset.

Programmed keys not functioning as expected

Reconnect to the Windows programming software and re-verify the key assignments. Ensure the programming was successfully saved to the keypad. Check for any conflicting software on your computer.

Keycap feels sticky or unresponsive

Disconnect the keypad and gently clean around the affected key with compressed air or a soft brush. If the issue is persistent, the key's membrane may require closer inspection or professional service.
