4. Opsætningsvejledning
4.1 Indledende opladning
Before first use, it is recommended to fully charge your Galaxy100 keyboard. Connect the provided USB-C cable to the keyboard's USB-C port and the other end to a powered USB port on your computer or a wall adapter. The keyboard features an 8000mAh battery for extended use. A battery indicator (often via RGB lighting or a dedicated LED) will show charging status and full charge.
4.2 Forbindelsestilstande
The Galaxy100 supports three connection modes: USB-C wired, 2.4GHz wireless, and Bluetooth. Use the switch located on the back or side of the keyboard to select your desired mode.
4.2.1 USB-C kablet tilstand
Connect the USB-C cable from the keyboard to your computer's USB port. The keyboard will be recognized automatically and is ready for use. This mode also charges the keyboard.
4.2.2 2.4 GHz trådløs tilstand
Insert the 2.4GHz USB receiver into an available USB port on your computer. Switch the keyboard to 2.4GHz mode (often indicated by a specific switch position or key combination like FN+R). The keyboard should automatically pair with the receiver. This mode offers low latency for gaming.
4.2.3 Bluetooth-tilstand
Switch the keyboard to Bluetooth mode (often indicated by a specific switch position or key combination like FN+Q/W/E for different profiles). On your device (PC, laptop, tablet, smartphone), enable Bluetooth and search for new devices. Select "EPOMAKER Galaxy100" from the list to pair. You can typically store up to three Bluetooth devices.
4.3 QMK/VIA Software Setup
The Galaxy100 keyboard supports QMK firmware and VIA software for advanced customization. To utilize VIA, download the latest version from the official VIA webwebsted (www.caniusevia.com). Once installed, connect your keyboard via USB-C, open the VIA application, and it should automatically detect your keyboard. You can then remap keys, create macros, and customize lighting effects.
4.4 Operativsystemkompatibilitet
The EPOMAKER Galaxy100 is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Android operating systems. Use FN+A for Windows mode and FN+S for Mac mode to optimize key functions for your specific OS.
5. Betjeningsvejledning
5.1 Grundlæggende nøglefunktioner
The Galaxy100 features a standard 1800 layout with a Numpad. Most keys function as labeled. For specific multimedia or function keys, refer to the keycap legends or the VIA software for customization.
5.2 RGB-lysstyring
The keyboard features south-facing RGB LEDs for bright and customizable backlighting. Use key combinations (often involving the FN key) to cycle through various lighting effects, adjust brightness, change colors, and control animation speed. Detailed lighting controls can also be configured via the VIA software.
5.3 Volume Knob Usage
The metal knob located on the top right of the keyboard primarily functions as a volume control. Rotate it clockwise to increase volume and counter-clockwise to decrease volume. Pressing the knob typically mutes or unmutes audio. Its function can be remapped using the VIA software.
5.4 Hot-swapping-switche
The Galaxy100 features a hot-swappable PCB, allowing you to change mechanical switches without soldering. Use the included 2-in-1 switch puller to carefully remove the keycap, then use the switch puller to gently extract the switch from its socket. Align the pins of the new 3-pin or 5-pin mechanical switch with the socket holes and press firmly until it clicks into place. Ensure pins are straight to avoid bending.
5.5 Batteristyring
The keyboard's 8000mAh battery provides extensive wireless usage. When the battery is low, the RGB lighting may dim or a specific indicator LED may flash. Connect the keyboard via USB-C to charge. It is recommended to fully charge the keyboard periodically to maintain battery health.
6. Vedligeholdelse
- Rensning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the keyboard surface. For deeper cleaning, remove keycaps using the provided puller and use compressed air to clear debris from between switches. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Opbevaring: Opbevar tastaturet et køligt, tørt sted væk fra direkte sollys og ekstreme temperaturer.
- Væskeeksponering: Undgå at udsætte tastaturet for væsker. I tilfælde af utilsigtet spild skal du straks frakoble tastaturet, slukke det og lade det tørre helt, før du tilslutter det igen.
