1. Introduction
With the Smart Office Keyboard, We presents a keyboard which is ideally matched to the
requirements of Office and Windows®
users. In addition to the ergonomic design of the case and the
high manufacturing quality, the main advantages of the Smart Office Keyboard are the practical
additional key and the patented controls which simplify your everyday work.
Frequently used functions, such as File...New, File...Open, Send to¡KEmail Recipient, Print, etc. are
no longer hidden in the complex menu structure, but are accessible at the touch of a key. The clear
layout of the keys in accordance with their functions permits quick access to many Office,
Multimedia and Internet functions.
Unique clipboard keys and the "direct access" key for the € -symbol permit simple editing of
documents. The innovative 3D scroll roller with keys for the most important commands such as
Copy or Cut and Paste
increase your personal productivity. You need the mouse only rarely, which means that you save up
to 70% of the hand movements between the keyboard and the mouse. This also results in a better
compensation between the dominant right hand and the recessive left hand.

This menu permits quick access to frequently used text phrases, documents, music titles, etc. By
pressing a single key, you can directly edit a sentence, names or text or start one of your favorite
applications as easily as using a mouse to scroll and click. Before you can use the pop-up menu, you

scroll roller and select "Configure". This opens a dialog for the settings. Enter the desired phrase,
name or text. If you want to start an application, enter the path to it or click on "Shortcut" to search
for the path. Confirm the settings by clicking on "OK".

The texts, names, etc. saved here can be inserted into any Windows text program (Word, Excel, etc.).
Clicking on "Back" returns you to the previously opened selection menu. To close the menu, click on
"Exit".
5.4 The direct access €key
The "Num Lock" key is used as the direct access €key.
In order to use this function, the "Office shift key" (€) and the "Num Lock" must both be active
(LEDs on). On most PC systems, the "Num Lock" key is activated automatically when the PC is
switched on. If the enclosed keyboard software has been installed, the Office shift key is also
automatically activated by default. The €symbol can now be entered by pressing a single key.
If you want to deactivate this function and use the numeric keys of the numeric keypad, simply press
the Office shift key (LED off).
6. Trouble shooting
• The Smart Office Keyboard software does not work correctly:
Make sure that all other keyboard drivers have been removed from your system. If this is the case,
but the
software still does not run correctly, remove the Smart Office Keyboard software, restart your PC
and install
the driver again.

• Removing, adding and de-installing the Smart Office Keyboard software:
Once you have installed the software, the blue-red "Ez" icon appears on the right-hand side of the
taskbar.
To remove the software, right-click on this icon and select "Close". Select "Yes" in the next dialog
to
remove the software. Alternatively, you can open the Control Panel àSettings àSoftware and
add or
remove the Smart Office Keyboard software there. After removing the software, restart your PC to
ensure
that all driver components are deleted.
• Other applications cannot be installed correctly:
The Smart Office Keyboard software may cause this. Remove this software as described above,
install your
new application and then install the Smart Office Keyboard software again.
• The commands in the OSD appear very slowly:
This is caused by a slow CD-ROM drive. You should use at least a quad-speed drive.
• "Next track" and "Previous track" do not work:
Pressing one of these keys should cause the CD Player to move to the next or previous track. If this
does not
work, the reason is that your CD-ROM drive is too slow. We recommend that you use at least a
quad-speed.
• CD Player or Video Player cannot be started:
Ensure that the software supplied with these devices was installed correctly.
• VCD titles or MPEG files cannot be played back:
Install the Windows Media Player 7, which can be downloaded from the Microsoft® website.
• Some of the short-cut keys cannot be assigned:
The Smart Office Keyboard driver uses some of the resources of the operating system. The
following five key
combinations cannot be used: CTRL+ALT+E, CTRL+ALT+P, CTRL+ALT+0, CTRL+ALT+D,
CTRL+ALT+C
