  • **Keyboard not responding**: Ensure the keyboard is charged. Check the connection mode switch (2.4G, BT, USB) matches your intended connection. For wired mode, ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected. For wireless modes, ensure the receiver is plugged in (2.4G) or Bluetooth is paired correctly.
  • **Keys not registering**: If specific keys are not working, try removing and re-seating the switch for that key. Ensure the switch pins are not bent.
  • **Backlight issues**: If the RGB backlight is not working or behaving unexpectedly, try resetting the lighting effects using the keyboard's function keys or through the customization software. Ensure the battery has sufficient charge.
  • **Connectivity issues**: If experiencing intermittent disconnections in wireless modes, try moving the keyboard closer to the receiver/device or reducing interference from other wireless devices. Re-pair Bluetooth connections if necessary.
  • **Software not detecting keyboard**: Ensure the keyboard is connected via USB-C wired mode when attempting to use the customization software. Download and install the latest version of the software from the official websit.
