Bedienungsanleitung

Grundlegende Tastenfunktionen

The SK66 features a 60% layout, meaning some functions are accessed via the Function (FN) key combined with other keys. Refer to the keycap legends for primary and secondary functions.

RGB-Hintergrundbeleuchtungssteuerung

The keyboard offers various RGB lighting effects. Basic controls can often be accessed directly on the keyboard using FN key combinations. For full customization, including color, brightness, speed, and specific effects, use the EPOMAKER driver software.

Programmable Layers (FN1/FN2/FN3)

The SK66 supports three programmable layers, allowing you to assign different functions to keys. These layers are typically accessed by holding down the FN key and pressing a designated layer switch key. Detailed configuration is performed through the driver software.

Macro Recording and Key Remapping

Utilize the EPOMAKER driver software to record complex macros or remap any key on the keyboard to suit your preferences. These configurations can be saved to the keyboard's onboard memory.

Systemkompatibilität

The keyboard is designed to work seamlessly with Windows, Android, and Mac OS. For Mac users, dedicated keycaps (Control, Option, Command) are provided for a familiar layout.
