Hello, and congratulations on your new UHK! Thanks so much for your support!

Let's unbox your UHK and split the halves by pulling them apart in opposite directions:

It's up to you how much space you leave between the halves, but your wrists should be aligned straight-on with each half:

Good posture

Bad posture

Connectivity

USB: Connect the right half via USB and connect the halves via the spiral cable. If your UHK has batteries, the spiral cable is unnecessary as the halves will communicate wirelessly, but it's convenient to avoid regular charging.

BLE: Select "UHK 80" on the host device and enter the pairing code on your UHK. If "UHK 80" doesn't appear in the Bluetooth devices list, you may have an older host that only supports the older Bluetooth Classic standard instead of the newer BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) standard. Only BLE is supported by the UHK 80.

Dongle: Pair the dongle with your UHK.

Switching between connections

Currently, switching between connections is only possible with the switchHost macro command. You have to map a key to a macro that includes a command macro action with this command. The `switchHost next`, `switchHost previous`, and `switchHost last` commands switch to the next, previous, and last connection, respectively. You can also switch to a specific connection featured on the Connections page of Agent. For example, the `switchHost "My PC" command switches to the "My PC" connection. We'll make connection switching much more user-friendly.

Disabling the keyboard

The UHK 80 doesn't have dedicated power switches. We'll implement a sleep mode instead that will also lock the keys until a key combination is hit.

OLED display content

  • The top left icon shows whether the halves are connected, and if so, wirelessly or via the bridge cable.
  • The top center icons show the status of caps lock and num lock.
  • If your UHK 80 contains batteries, the top right percentages show their charges. These values are inaccurate, and we'll make them much more accurate.
  • The middle row shows the name of the current keymap
  • The bottom row shows the current connection.

Charging

The two halves should be charged via separate USB cables for maximum charging speed. Alternatively, a single USB cable is sufficient if the other half is connected via the bridge cable, in which case the half not directly connected via USB will charge slower. The charging percentages are inaccurate, which we'll fix via firmware updates.

Setup

If you have a Riser 80, see the Riser 80 manual for its setup.

If you don't have a Riser 80 but only the included flip-out feet, see the tenting, negative tilting, and positive tilting setup instructions. These instructions were made for the UHK 60, but the setup is identical for the UHK 80.

Where to go from here?

We have a nice tutorial to familiarize yourself with the keymaps, layers, and mouse keys of your UHK 80, and we strongly recommend you read it. This tutorial was made for the UHK 60, but it also applies to your UHK 80.

Finally, install Agent and customize your UHK to your needs.
