Fehlerbehebung

Koppelungsprobleme

• LED light flashing rapidly: This indicates the keyboard is actively searching for a device to pair with. Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your host device and it is discoverable.
• LED light flashing slowly: This means the keyboard is attempting to reconnect to a previously paired device. Ensure the paired device's Bluetooth is on and within range.
• Keyboard not appearing in Bluetooth list:
  • Stellen Sie sicher, dass die Tastatur aufgeladen und eingeschaltet ist.
  • Make sure the keyboard is in pairing mode (LED flashing rapidly).
  • Try restarting both the keyboard and your host device.
  • Clear existing Bluetooth connections on your host device if you have too many.

Number Pad Not Working

If your number pad is not functioning, and there is no dedicated "Num Lock" key, you may need to adjust a setting in your macOS:

1. Gehe zu Systemeinstellungen auf Ihrem Mac.
2. Klicken Sie auf Zugänglichkeit.
3. Scrollen Sie nach unten und wählen Sie Zeigersteuerung.
4. Deaktivieren the "Enable Mouse Keys" option. This setting can sometimes interfere with the number pad's functionality.

Allgemeine Verbindungsprobleme

• Ensure the keyboard is within the effective range of your Bluetooth device (typically up to 33 feet or 10 meters).
• Minimieren Sie Störungen durch andere drahtlose Geräte (z. B. Wi-Fi-Router, schnurlose Telefone).
