A Guide to the Compact Keyboard

The keyboard, a detachable USB-C cable, and a keycap puller.

No. This board is wired only, so there's no battery to charge and no wireless mode to set up.

Press FN + Right Ctrl to cycle through the 18 built-in lighting effects.

Press FN + Left Ctrl. The rim light runs separately from the key lighting, so you can set each one differently.

Press FN + Space to bring up the color palette. Each key lights up showing a different color option. Press whichever key shows the color you want, and every key on the board switches to match it.

FN + Insert brightens, FN + Delete dims. Brightness steps through off, 33%, 66%, and 100%, starting at 100% by default.

Yes, for more lighting and backlight settings you can download the driver from the manufacturer's site. It's Windows only. Everything in this guide works without it, on any operating system.

Try a different USB port and cable first, then a factory reset (FN + Backspace, hold 3 seconds). If a key still isn't registering, reach out to support.
