Keyboard and mouse

Getting Started with your


Keyboard
Edit this on GitHub

Our oOcial keyboard includes three host USB ports for


connecting external devices, such as USB mice, USB
drives, and other USB- controlled devices.

The product’s micro USB port is for connection to the


Raspberry Pi. Via the USB hub built into the keyboard, the
Raspberry Pi controls, and provides power to, the three
USB Type A ports.

Keyboard Features
The Raspberry Pi keyboard has three lock keys: Num
Lock, Caps Lock, and Scroll Lock. There are three
LEDs in the top right-hand corner that indicate which
locks are enabled.

Num Lock
Allows use of the red number keys on the letter
keys, effectively creating a numeric keypad. This
mode is enabled and disabled by pressing the Num
Lock key.

Caps Lock
Allows typing capital letters; press the Shift key to
type lower-case letters in this mode. This mode is
enabled and disabled by pressing the Caps Lock
key.

Scroll Lock (ScrLk)


Allows use of the cursor keys for browsing web
pages and spreadsheets without the mouse. This
mode is enabled and disabled by pressing the
ScrLk key while holding the Fn key.

Getting Started with your


Mouse
Edit this on GitHub

Our oOcial mouse has three buttons, which activate high-


quality micro-switches. The wheel is for quick scrolling
when browsing documents and web pages.

Always place the mouse on a Yat, stable surface while


using it. The mouse optically detects movement on the
surface on which it is placed. On featureless surfaces,
e.g. PVC or acrylic table tops, the mouse cannot detect
movement. When you are working on such a surface,
place the mouse on a mouse mat.

Connecting it all Together


Edit this on GitHub

This is the con[guration we recommend for using your


Raspberry Pi, oOcial keyboard and hub, and oOcial
mouse together. The hub on the keyboard ensures easy
access to USB drives, and the mouse’s cable is tidy, while
being long enough to allow you to use the mouse left- or
right-handed.

NOTE

It is important that the power supply is connected to


the Raspberry Pi and the keyboard is connected to the
Raspberry Pi. If the power supply were connected to
the keyboard, with the Raspberry Pi powered via the
keyboard, then the keyboard would not operate
correctly.
