LEDs
The blue LEDs in the upper right corner of the right keying module include four lights: caps lock, numlock (PC), scroll
lock (PC), and fn/sleep. Numlk (numlock) and scrlk (scroll lock) are PC status indicators that are not active on your
Mac. The fn LED indicates when the embedded layer has been activated with the fn key. The Fn LED is also
illuminated when the computer is in sleep mode.
USB 2.0 ports
Two bus-powered USB 2.0 ports located at the back of the right keying module enable connection of a mouse or
flash drive, or a self-powered digital camera or printer. Note: these ports provide a maximum of 400 mA and
therefore cannot be used to charge a digital device such as an iPod or iPhone.
Physical configurations (removing pivot tether)
The Freestyle2 convertible keyboard is shipped with the two keying modules connected by a linking cable and by a
removable pivot tether™ (shown at right). To remove the pivot tether, slide the appropriate release button towards the
outside of the keyboard and allow the pivot tether to detach from that keying module. The two keying modules may then
be separated by up to 9 inches with the standard separation model (KB800HMB-us) or by 20 inches with the
KB800HMB-us-20 model. Other physical configurations are possible with optional accessories (see below). To purchase
accessories, inquire with your dealer or visit kinesis.com.
