Frequently Asked Questions 

 

Q: What should I do when I type on the keyboard and nothing 
happens? 
 

 

Check that mobile device’s batteries are charged. 

 

Verify that keyboard has sufficient power to operate. 

 

Check to make sure that the keyboard software is installed properly 
according to the instructions. 

 

Check the BT tab of the Keyboard Control Panel to make sure the 
Stowaway BT Keyboard is enabled.  

 

Check the Config tab of the Keyboard Control Panel to make sure 
you’ve selected the appropriate keyboard type. After tapping Enable
you should select Bluetooth wireless keyboard

 

 

Use the Keyboard Help icon to launch the help. 

Q: I tried to turn off the Bluetooth radio and it automatically turned 
back on, what should I do? 

The Stowaway keyboard must be disabled before the Bluetooth radio can be 
turned off. See the 

Disabling the Stowaway Keyboard

 section for more 

information. 
 
Q: What are the Serial and IR tabs of the Keyboard Control Panel 
for? 
 
If you should ever select and setup the Connected serial keyboard or 
Infrared wireless keyboard option on the Config tab of the Keyboard 
Control Panel
, you will see a Serial and/or IR tab added to the Keyboard 
Control Panel
. Even if you change back to the Stowaway BT keyboard 
the Serial and/or IR tab will remain in the Keyboard Control Panel. Serial 
keyboards use a physical connection versus a wireless connection to a 
mobile device. Only users of Stowaway keyboards that use a physical 
connection will use the Serial tab. Infrared keyboards use an infrared line of 
sight connection to a mobile device. Only users of Stowaway Infrared 
Wireless
 keyboards will use the IR Tab. Users of the Stowaway BT 
keyboard
 can ignore this tab. 

 
 

Q: What is the Stowaway Bluetooth Mouse button for? 
 
This is used to setup the optional Bluetooth mouse. This is only for users 
that also have the Stowaway Bluetooth Mouse.
