Operating Instructions
Basic Use
The Delux T11 is a compact, left-handed mechanical keyboard designed for efficiency. Its QWERTY layout provides familiar key placement for common functions.
Custom Shortcut Keys
A key feature of this keyboard is its customizable shortcut keys. These keys are pre-programmed for common design or editing functions, but can often be remapped using dedicated software (if available from the manufacturer) or operating system settings. Consult the manufacturer's website for any specific software tools.
- Identify Programmable Keys: Look for keys with special markings or those designated as "custom" or "macro" keys.
- Software Configuration: If manufacturer software is available, install it and follow its instructions to assign new functions or macros to the programmable keys.
- Operating System Shortcuts: For basic remapping, your operating system's keyboard settings may allow some customization.
Maintenance
Cleaning
- Power Off: Disconnect the keyboard from your computer before cleaning.
- Dust Removal: Use a can of compressed air to remove dust and debris from between the keys.
- Surface Cleaning: Gently wipe the keycaps and keyboard surface with a soft, lint-free cloth lightly dampened with water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution. Avoid excessive moisture.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use strong solvents, alcohol, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the keyboard's finish or keycap legends.
Storage
When not in use, store the keyboard in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Protect it from dust and spills.
Troubleshooting
- Keyboard Not Responding (Wired):
- Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the keyboard and the computer.
- Try connecting the keyboard to a different USB port on your computer.
- Test the keyboard on another computer to rule out a system-specific issue.
- Keyboard Not Responding (Bluetooth):
- Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your computer and the keyboard is in pairing mode.
- Remove the keyboard from your computer's Bluetooth device list and attempt to re-pair it.
- Check the keyboard's battery level if it's a wireless-only model (though this model is listed as "Wired" for power source, Bluetooth implies a battery for wireless use).
- Keys Not Functioning Correctly:
- Clean the keyboard to remove any debris that might be obstructing the key switches.
- If specific keys are not working, it might indicate a hardware issue.
- Custom Shortcuts Not Working:
- Verify that any necessary software for customization is installed and running.
- Check the software settings to ensure the shortcuts are correctly configured.
- Ensure there are no conflicts with other software or operating system shortcuts.
