5. Maintenance

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Aigo A87 keyboard, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

  • Keyboard Not Responding:
    • Ensure the keyboard is charged or connected via USB-C.
    • For wireless mode, check if the 2.4G receiver is properly plugged in and the keyboard is powered on. Try re-pairing if necessary.
    • Try connecting to a different USB port on your computer.
  • Keys Not Registering or Repeating Presses:
    • This can sometimes occur due to software conflicts or debris under the keycap/switch.
    • Ensure your operating system and keyboard drivers are up to date.
    • Carefully remove the affected keycap using the key puller and inspect the switch for any visible obstructions. Use compressed air to clean around the switch.
    • If the issue persists, consider replacing the switch with a spare one, utilizing the hot-swap feature.
  • Wireless Connection Issues:
    • Ensure the keyboard is within range of the 2.4G receiver (typically up to 10 meters).
    • Avoid interference from other wireless devices (e.g., Wi-Fi routers, other 2.4G devices).
    • Try plugging the receiver into a different USB port, preferably a USB 2.0 port if available, as some USB 3.0 ports can cause interference.
  • Charging Problems:
