# Wireless Keyboard First  Time Setup Guide

## Connecting your Keyboard

To connect your wireless keyboard, simply turn on each half. Then open your bluetooth device list on your device you are wanting to connect your keyboard to, and search for your keyboard name. Then simply connect. This will connect to your default 0 layout on your keyboard.

Even plugged in your keyboard will always use Bluetooth to connect. USB is used for charging the battery, programming. and flashing new firmware to your keyboard.
{% endhint %}

### Connecting to Multiple Devices

Our wireless keyboards support multiple  blue tooth profiles. By default your first connection will be added to connection profile 0. To connect to other devices, first switch your keyboard to a new profile number and then open your Blue Tooth settings on your device and add your keyboard to it.

## Charging your Keyboard

Simply leave your keyboard switch ON and then plug in any USB C cable and it will charge. Once the charging light shuts off, your battery is fully charged.

{% hint style="info" %}
If your keyboard doe not come with a dongle, then the left half is the master keboard so expect its battery to drain much faster than the right half. This is expected as its communicating to both the right half and your computer/device you are connected to.
{% endhint %}

## Programming Your Keyboard

We use ZMK for our wireless keyboards which has a couple easy ways for programming your keyboard so you can customize it for your needs.

Our keyboards come pre-flashed with ZMK Studio enabled. This is both an online and downloadable configuration tool.

* Online Tool - [ZMK.Studio](https://zmk.studio/)
  * Requires Chrome, Edge, or other Chomium based browser
* Local Tool - <https://zmk.studio/download>
* Documentation - <https://zmk.dev/docs/features/studio>

Follow this process to  program your wireless keyboard

* Turn on both halves
* Plug the left half into an available USB port
* Open up ZMK Studio app or Online tool
* Unlock your keyboard using the button combination shown in your Default Keyboard Layout. For example for the Sweep you press and old the outer most left hand Thumb button and then press your index home row key.
