4.5 Swappable USB-C Cable

The keyboard uses a detachable USB-C to USB cable, which can be swapped for custom coiled cables to further personalize your setup.

5. Одржавање

5.1 Генерално чишћење

Да бисте одржали дуготрајност и изглед ваше тастатуре:

• Искључите тастатуру из уређаја пре чишћења.
• Користите бочицу компримованог ваздуха да бисте уклонили прашину и остатке између тастера.
• Обришите тастере и површину тастатуре меком, благо длакомamp, крпа која не оставља влакна. Избегавајте јаке хемикалије или абразивне материјале.

5.2 Одржавање тастера и прекидача

When removing or installing keycaps and switches:

• Use the provided keycap puller to gently remove keycaps. Pull straight up to avoid damaging the switch stem.
• Use the provided switch puller to carefully remove switches. Ensure the switch puller prongs engage with the clips on the switch housing before pulling.
• When installing new switches, align the pins correctly with the hot-swap sockets and press down gently until the switch clicks into place. Do not force switches, as this can bend the pins.
• Ensure keycaps are pressed down evenly onto the switch stems.

КСНУМКС. Решавање проблема

6.1 Тастатура не реагује

• Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the keyboard and your device.
• Try connecting the keyboard to a different USB port on your device.
• Test the keyboard on another computer or device to rule out a system-specific issue.
• Ако користите УСБ чвориште, покушајте да га директно повежете са рачунаром.

6.2 Incorrect Key Output (e.g., WIN/ALT keys swapped)

• This may indicate the keyboard is in the wrong operating system mode (e.g., Mac mode on a Windows PC).
• Use the designated hotkey combination (e.g., Fn + Win or Fn + Alt) to switch between Mac and Windows key layouts.

6.3 RGB осветљење не ради

• Уверите се да је тастатура правилно повезана и да прима напајање.
• Use the RGB hotkeys to cycle through lighting modes and adjust brightness. It's possible the lighting is turned off or set to a very dim level.
• If individual keys are not lighting up, check if the switch for that key is properly seated or if the switch itself is faulty.

6.4 Bent Switch Pins

If a switch is not functioning after installation, carefully remove it and inspect the pins on the bottom of the switch. If bent, gently straighten them with tweezers before reinserting. If pins break, the switch will need to be replaced.
