Keyboard Overview
This document describes the SKYLOONG SK96S, a 2-mode keyboard offering both USB wired and Bluetooth connectivity. The keyboard features a compact layout, suitable for Mac users, and includes dedicated function keys, navigation keys, and media controls. The layout is a standard QWERTY arrangement with modifier keys labeled for both Windows (WIN, ALT, CTRL) and Mac (Command, Option, CTRL) operating systems. A note specifies that for the "X" series models, the space bar module is replaceable.
Connectivity Indicator: A flashing blue LED indicates the keyboard is connecting to a Bluetooth device. The [FN key] + [Space bar] combination switches between USB mode and the last connected Bluetooth equipment.
FN Key Functionality
The [FN key] provides access to secondary functions. Double-clicking the [FN key] locks its function (indicated by a white LED on the FN key), allowing users to activate secondary functions without continuously holding the [FN key]. Pressing [FN key] again releases the lock.

The standard mode allows for user customization of keyboard personality through four modes, with onboard modes 1, 2, and 3 being highly recommended.
