Cleankeys Keyboard User Guide
3.3. Mounting
The keyboard can be placed on a counter top or mounted to a wall or bracket.
There are three #6-32 mounting inserts on the bottom of keyboard. These inserts
are compatible with the MIS-D TS VESA standard pattern. Using these mounting
inserts, the keyboard can be mounted at any angle, including vertical.
4. Using the Cleankeys keyboard
The Cleankeys keyboard has several features that are not found on standard
keyboards.
4.1. Typing on the Cleankeys keyboard
Although the keys on the Cleankeys keyboard do not move, the same typing
technique is used on the Cleankeys keyboard that is used on a standard keyboard.
The Cleankeys keyboard accomplishes this by using touch sensing technology.
4.1.1. Touch sensing
The Cleankeys keyboard uses touch capacitance technology to sense the touch of
a human finger. This means that fingers must be used to touch the keys. Touching
or tapping the keyboard with another object, a pencil for example, will not activate
a key.
However, the Cleankeys keyboard can be used with surgical gloves, or any type of
glove for that matter. Just adjust the sensitivity accordingly. See
12. Changing the
sensitivity of the keys on page 11
.
4.2. Key indentations
The surface of the acrylic keyboard has shallow indentations over each key.
These indentations help to locate the position of the keys without looking at the
keyboard.
The surface of the glass keyboard does not have these indentations.
4.3. Low Battery Mode
The red Battery LED at the top of the keyboard begins to flash when the battery
charge is low.
The red LED flashes slowly (about once per second) when there is 20% of the
battery power remaining. The red LED flashes more quickly (about twice per
second) when there is 10% of the battery power remaining.
This feature is only available when using a wireless connection for the keyboard.
