Compatibility
X-keys USB devices require MacroWorks 3 for Windows XP, Vista, or 7 or
ControllerMate for Mac OS-X. The X-keys Desktop also has a “Hardware
Mode” which gives it the ability to mimic a USB keyboard or mouse on any
USB enabled operating system (including Linux). Learn more about Hardware
Mode on our web site or contact our Technical Support Department
([email protected]).
Identifying the Keys
Select appropriate icons or use the blank side of the legend sheet to create
your own key legends. The keycaps snap off with a fingernail or small
screwdriver. Apply the label under the keycap, and replace it. The key caps
hold a legend 0.575" wide and 0.5" high (14.6mm x 12.7mm). Other options
are available for printing legends for multiple units. Contact our Sales
Department ([email protected]) for more information.
Horizontal and Vertical Double-keys
The included double-keys replace two single keys on the X-keys. To install a
double key cap, remove two adjacent keys with the provided key-puller by
positioning the key-puller teeth under the key and pulling straight up on the
key cap. Press the double-key in place over the two exposed switch stems.
