How to use

Connect the GEMBIRD KPD-U-03 to an available USB port on your laptop or desktop PC.

Recommendations

If using with a laptop, place the keypad where hand movement is comfortable to reduce strain during extended data-entry sessions. Regularly clean the key surfaces with a dry or slightly damp cloth; avoid aggressive solvents.
