Description

With user comfort and ergonomics in mind, Microsoft created the LXM-00001 Ergonomic Keyboard. This keyboard was created by Microsoft, a renowned technology corporation, with the goal of giving users—especially those who operate on computers for extended periods of time—a more comfortable and effective typing experience. The split-key design of the LXM-00001 Ergonomic Keyboard implies that the keyboard is divided into two distinct portions with a space between them.

The tension on the tendons and muscles in the hands and forearms is decreased by using this layout, which encourages a more natural hand and wrist position. Users can type with their hands aligned with their natural anatomy because of the split-key design’s encouragement of a more relaxed posture.

Most Notable Characteristics

The cushioned palm rest of the LXM-00001 Ergonomic Keyboard is one of its most notable characteristics. This cushioned section below the spacebar gives the wrists more support and comfort, lowering the possibility of wrist fatigue and repetitive strain injuries. Users are able to keep their wrists in a neutral position, which is necessary for both long-term typing comfort and general well-being. The keyboard also features a gently curved shape, with the keys placed in that shape. With this design, all the keys are more easily accessible without putting too much stress or strain on the fingers because it follows the natural curvature of the hands.

Comfort Level

A comfortable typing experience is guaranteed by the low-profile, silent, and responsive keys themselves. Additionally, the LXM-00001 Ergonomic Keyboard is fitted with a number of practical features. It has a numeric keypad for speedy data entry, media keys for rapid access to frequently used features, and programmable shortcut keys for flexible productivity. Additionally, it has a solid wireless connection that links to PCs, doing away with unsightly cables and allowing for placement versatility.

Maintenance 

  1. Turn off the keyboard: Before cleaning, unplug the keyboard from your computer and turn it off.
  2. To clean off any dust, crumbs, or other material from the surface of the keyboard, use a soft brush or a can of compressed air. Be mindful of the spaces in between the keys where debris may collect.
  3. Use rubbing alcohol or a moderate cleaning solution to wet a soft, lint-free cloth. To get rid of fingerprints, grime, or stains, gently clean the keyboard’s surface and the individual keys. Avoid applying too much moisture because it could harm the keyboard.
  4. If the keycaps are removable, you can use a keycap puller or your fingers to gently snap them off. Separately, wash the keycaps in warm water and mild soap. Before reattaching them to the keyboard, fully dry them.
  5. You can clean your keyboard’s removable palm rest independently using a similar technique to how you clean the keys. If it isn’t removable, gently wipe the palm rest with a cloth.
  6. Before reconnecting the keyboard to your computer and turning it back on, let it thoroughly dry out in the air. Check to make sure there is no moisture left before attaching the keyboard.
  7. Regularly cleaning your keyboard with a soft brush or a can of compressed air is advised to maintain it clean. Periodically wiping the surface and keys with a moist cloth can also aid in maintaining cleanliness.
