Default Layout: QWERTY (U.S.) 

All Advantage2 keyboards come preconfigured from the factory with the familiar QWERTY layout, but customizing is easy with the simple on-board 
programming features (see page 3).

 

 

Alternate Layout: Dvorak 

The Advantage2 also comes preloaded with an onboard Dvorak layout. Dual-legended QWERTY-Dvorak keycaps are standard on the KB600QD, but 
they can also be purchased separately and installed on any Advantage2 keyboard.

 

   

 

Thumb Key Modes: Windows, Mac, or PC 

Users may also configure the modifier keys in the thumb-operated clusters in one of three modes.  These modes are optimized for Windows users, 
Mac users, and PC users who don’t need a Windows key. Thumb Key Mode is set independently from layout (QWERTY or Dvorak). Thumb Key 
Mode defaults to the Windows configuration in the US (PC mode is pre-set for non-US models to allow the right Alt to serve as Alt Gr). Extra 
keycaps and a keycap tool are included.
