gently pressing on the arrows with your two thumbs until you hear a click. Remove the battery cover on the backside of the LMP Keypad.LMP Keypad power button

2) Place the 2 AA-size batteries in the battery compartment.

Make sure the batteries are placed according to the polarity symbols (+/-) shown in the battery compartment!

3) Press the power button on the LMP Keypad to turn on

the LMP Keypad. The LED indicator will be light up once in green. The LMP Keypad is now turned on.Pairing the LMP Keypad in Mac OS X Make sure that you have Bluetooth support on your Macintosh™ and Mac OS X

10.5.x or higher installed. The LMP Keypad may work with older Mac OS X but

it is not officially supported.

1) Choose the Apple menu and open the "System Preferences." Under “Internet &

wireless communication” (OS X 10.6.x)/”Hardware” (OS X 10.5.x) you should see a Bluetooth icon. If you do not, your Mac does not have Bluetooth.

2) Enable Bluetooth. Under "System Preferences" click the Bluetooth icon and make

sure you see "Bluetooth: On" under the "Settings" tab. If it's not turned on, click "Turn Bluetooth On." 3) Go to the menu bar and click the Bluetooth icon, then click "Bluetooth Preferences."4) Click the "+" tab (set up new device) in the left window to pair a new Bluetooth device. The Bluetooth assistant opens. (With Mac OS X 10.5.x, the Bluetooth assistant may ask what kind of device you are going to pair. Choose “keyboard” and click “continue”). Your computer now searches automatically for new Bluetooth devices.

5) Press the Pairing Button on the backside of the LMP Keypad with a pen to set up a

connection to your Macintosh™. The pairing LED starts to flash in yellow. Your Macintosh™ should see the LMP Keypad as “Bluetooth Keypad”. Click “continue”.

6) In the dialog box the device “Bluetooth Keypad” will appear. If it is not listed, make

sure that LMP Keypad is turned on and in pairing mode. Then click "Search Again" in the "Bluetooth Device" dialog box.

7) Click on “Bluetooth Keypad” and press “continue”. The PIN number of the LMP

Keypad will be shown on your screen.

8) Enter the 8-digit PIN number with your LMP Keypad according to the digits shown on

your screen and press the “enter” key of your LMP Keypad. Click "OK" and the LMP Keypad should be listed in the "Devices" tab under "Bluetooth Preferences." When you enter a digit on the LMP Keypad, it is not highlighted as with some other Bluetooth devices. Keep entering the digits quickly and press the “enter” key at the end. If you need too long to or enter a wrong digit, you may have to enter the PIN number again.Using the Pairing Button

1) You may use the pairing button after you have changed the batteries (you need to

set up the LMP Keypad like you did for the first time) or when the connection is constantly lost. Follow steps 1 ~ 8 above.

2) If you have used the LMP Keypad with another Macintosh™ computer, you have to

set up the LMP Keypad again. Follow steps 1 ~ 8 above. Power Management To save power, it is highly recommended to power off the LMP Keypad if the LMP Keypad won’t be used for a longer period.

1) To power off the LMP Keypad, hold the power button of LMP Keypad about 3

seconds until green LED indicator is turned off. You should see the message “lost connection” on you screen. The LMP Keypad is in power off mode.

2) To power on the LMP Keypad again, hold the power button of the LMP Keypad for 1

second. The LED indicator flashes in yellow. You may see the message “connected” on your screen. You can use the LMP Keypad now. The pairing time of LMP Keypad with your Macintosh™ computer normally just takes a few seconds. However, it may take up to 40 seconds with some Bluetooth dongles.3) The LMP Keypad greatly reduces the power consumption automatically when it is in idle mode (connected, but no keying). In fact, the power consumption in idle mode is only about ¼ (about 0.65 mA) of the consumption of the keying mode (typing on the LMP Keypad; about 3 mA). This feature greatly extends the battery life.

4) The LMP Keypad uses 2 pcs. AA size batteries. You can either use non-rechargeable or

rechargeable batteries. Connecting with Apple™ wireless keyboard (A1314)

1) Connect the linkage bar to the LMP Keypad on its left side by simply sliding it into

the opening. It will nicely form a Keypad unit ready to be linked to the Apple™ wireless keyboard.

2) Connect the Keypad unit to your Apple™ wireless keyboard (A1314) by sliding the

right side into the LMP Keypad unit as shown in figure shown below. You now have a full size Bluetooth wireless keyboard ready for use!

3) You can turn on/off the Apple™ wireless keyboard with the power on bar of the LMP

Keypad situated on the right side and upper right corner of the LMP Keypad. To turn on the Apple™ keyboard, press the power on bar of the LMP Keypad for 1 second. To turn off the Apple™ wireless keyboard, press the power on bar for about 2 ~ 3 seconds.Make sure the Apple™ wireless keyboard is firmly plugged into the LMP Keypad unit.FAQ

1) The LMP Keypad shows an erratic behavior such as a sudden loss of connection,

sleep mode after a short time (i.e. only a few seconds), no connection possible when trying to pair, etc. Erratic behavior of the LMP Keypad can be a result of (too) low battery power. You should change the batteries now.

2) Short cuts with the cmd-key (i.e. “cmd+” (to enlarge) or “cmd-” (to downsize) in

Pages) do not work when using the Apple™ wireless keyboard together with the LMP Keypad. Keyboard and LMP Keypad are recognized by the Mac OS as two separate input de- vices. This means that a combination of the two input devices to form a single com- mand is not possible. Instead, you can use the programmable hot-keys F13 to F17:

• Choose “System Preferences” > “Keyboard” > “Keyboard Shortcuts”. Press “+” to assign a new keyboard shortcut.

• Enter the shortcut command and assign a hot key (i.e. “Show All Bookmarks” to F14)

• Make sure you are using the correct term and the exact same spelling as in the program so the system activates the command correctly (i.e. “Show All Bookmarks” vs. “Show all bookmarks” which will not work!).

• Use the hot-key for the assigned task.3) The “clear” key under Windows™ has different and sometimes strange functions such as delete forward, delete backwards, no function at all, numlock function, clear all, etc. The LMP Keypad is designed to work with Mac OS X. However, it can be used with certain Windows™ OS and programs as well but without support from the manufacturer. The “clear” key under Windows™ OS is basically equal to numlock. However, it can have different functions depending on the software being used. This shortcoming cannot be changed. Use “delete” and “delete forward” instead to clear any characters and try to avoid using the “clear” key while working with Windows™ OS.

4) The LMP Keypad does not work anymore with Windows™ OS

You may have accidentally pressed the “clear” key, which locks the LMP Keypad (numlock function in some programs). Unlock the LMP Keypad by pressing “clear” again.

5) Can the LMP Keypad be connected with various Macintosh™ computers, i.e. an

iMac and a MacBook, and switch back and forth? No, the LMP Keypad can only be connected with one Macintosh™ computer at a time. When switching to another Macintosh™, the pairing needs to be redone. It is recom- mended to delete the “Bluetooth Keypad” first before re-pairing is performed. You can delete it by choosing the “Bluetooth Keypad” and clicking on the “-“ sign in the left window. Follow the steps under “Bluetooth Pairing under Mac OS X”.6) Can the battery power status be read in the Apple™ System Preferences like with the Apple™ wireless keyboard? No, there is no reading for the current battery power status. Once the battery power is low, the LMP Keypad will display an erratic behavior like loosing the connection all the time, having difficulty to do the pairing, etc.

7) When using the LMP Keypad with my iPad it does not work properly.

The WKP-1314 is specifically designed to work with desktop or portable Macintosh™ computers. It does not support any iPad which is clearly stated on the packaging.

8) On the LMP Keypad, there is a “.” (decimal) key. In my language, the “,” is used

as the decimal sign. Will the LMP Keypad display a “.” or a “,”? Whether the LMP Keypad displays a “.” or a “,” depends on the Mac OS installed (keyboard layout/language), i.e. in French OS/keyboard layout, the decimal key displays a “,” while in Swiss OS/keyboard layout, a “.” is displayed.

9) During the process of pairing the LMP Keypad with the Macintosh™, there is a
