ASSIST MODE

The ASSIST MODE on BigKeys LX accommodates those who cannot press
two (or more) keys simultaneously. ASSIST MODE works with and enhances
the Windows "Sticky Key" Accessibility Option.

When not in ASSIST MODE, the function keys are produced on BigKeys LX
by pressing simultaneously the F key and a number key. (F+1 produces the
F1 function, etc.)

The BigKeys LX Assist Mode enables you to press the F key and have it
remain active until you press another key. In ASSIST MODE, the F key
becomes a "Sticky Key".

Examples of using the BigKeys LX ASSIST MODE:
-To obtain an F1 in ASSIST MODE, press and release the F key, then
press and release the 1 key.
- To obtain an "Alt-F4" in ASSIST MODE, press and release the Alt key,
then press and release the F key, then press and release the 4 key.
(The Windows "Sticky Keys" Accessibility Option must be turned ON
for this example.)

To enter the BigKeys LX ASSIST MODE press the CAPS LOCK key three
times in a row.

To exit ASSIST MODE and return the keyboard to normal operation,
again press the CAPS LOCK three times in a row.

Note that while in ASSIST MODE it is necessary to press the F key twice to
send an F to the computer.

NO RUN-ON OPTION

BigKeys is designed to allow only one keystroke to be sent to the computer for
each key depression. This feature prevents multiple characters that might occur
inadvertently when holding down a key too long.

We have a new RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) form on our website for product returns and exchanges. Just go to http://www.infogrip.com/rma.asp or click here for the new form. All customers wanting to return or exchange a product must obtain a RMA prior to shipping the product back to Infogrip. We are not responsible for any product sent back without an RMA.
