After buying any gadget, it becomes necessary to connect it, but not always from the instructions attached to it it is clear how to do it. In this article, let's talk about connecting a wireless keyboard to a computer.
How to connect a wireless keyboard?
Installing the keyboard is easy, provided that in addition to it you have:
- USB adapter;
- a driver disk;
- free USB port on the computer;
- batteries (usually finger).
If everything is there, you can proceed with the installation itself:
- We insert the disk into the DVD-ROM and wait for the autorun of the installation program. If this does not happen, then click on the "My Computer" icon and open the used disk.
- We find on it an installation file (with the extension .exe) and, following the prompts that appear, install the program.
- We insert the adapter into the USB port.
- We insert the batteries if they are not already installed.
If everything is done correctly, a message will appear on the monitor about the detection of the device. The computer will automatically find and activate the drivers for the wireless keyboard. After the message "the device is ready to work" appears, it can be used.
How do I turn on the wireless keyboard?
Sometimes you need to turn on the keyboard. To do this, move the lever from the "Off" position to "On". It is located most often on the bottom or top side of the device.
What should I do if the wireless keyboard does not work?
It happens that the keyboard stops or does not start working. Here's what you can do in this case:
- Check the batteries. It happens that they are not delivered correctly or they are exhausted.
