Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Hexgears Immision A3 keyboard, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the keyboard surface. For deeper cleaning, use a can of compressed air to remove dust and debris from between keycaps.

• Battery Care: Avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. Charge the keyboard regularly to maintain battery health.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Hexgears Immision A3 keyboard, refer to the following common solutions:

• Inaccurate LCD Clock: The time displayed on the LCD may be incorrect. Currently, there is no direct way to adjust it via the keyboard. Software may be required for synchronization.
• Sleep Mode Glitch (Wired Mode): If the keyboard's backlighting repeatedly turns on and off when the computer goes to sleep while connected via USB, this indicates a sleep mode glitch. Disconnecting and reconnecting the USB cable or switching to wireless mode may resolve this.
• Wake Function Limitation (Wired Mode): Pressing a key may not wake the computer from sleep in wired mode. This is a known limitation.
• Connectivity Issues: Ensure the correct connection mode (2.4GHz, Bluetooth, USB-C) is selected. For Bluetooth, ensure the keyboard is in pairing mode and visible to your device. For 2.4GHz, ensure the dongle is securely plugged in.
• RGB Lighting Not Working: Check the brightness settings on the TFT display or via the software. Ensure RGB lighting is enabled.
