the PIN to the chip card

1 Attaching the keyboard to
the PC and installing the
driver
• Connect the USB connector on the keyboard to
the USB port on the PC/laptop.
The integrated card reader is recognized by
Windows and the driver is automatically loaded.
• If the card reader is not recognized, use the
installation instructions for a driver update on
our support page www.cherry.de under
Service > Downloads. You will also find the link
to the Linux driver there.
2 Using the chip card
reader
Two chip cards in or on the reader at
the same time
If you try to read a chip card when there
is already another one in or on the reader, the
reader will only access the first card. It does not
matter whether it is a contact or contactless chip
card.
• Remove the first chip card.
2.1 Reading a contact chip card
• Insert the chip card with the chip facing down
and forward into the chip card slot.
After a significant pressure point has been
reached, contact is made.
2.2 Reading a contactless chip card
• Hold the chip card horizontally between the
guides to the back of the chip card reader.
When the chip card fits completely tightly against
the housing of the chip card reader, the data are
transmitted.
3 Secure PIN entry (only for
contact chip cards)
If your application supports it, the entry of the PIN
is not transmitted to the system, but instead from
the numerical keypad of the keyboard directly to
the chip card.
• Confirm the PIN by using one of the two "Enter"
keys.
• Abort the process by using the "Esc" key or the
"+" key on the number block.
• Correct your entry with the "Backspace" key or
the "–" key on the number block.

The keyboard can be switched to secure mode by
the system. It can then be authenticated, so that
key entries will be transmitted in encrypted form.
For the secure mode, the corresponding software
must be installed on the system by the
manufacturer. We provide a Software Developer's
Guide for this purpose (see www.cherry.de under
Service > Downloads).

5 Tips
5.1 Cleaning the keyboard
CAUTION: Damage may be caused by
harsh cleaning agents or liquids in the
keyboard
• Do not use solvents such as gasoline or
alcohol and scouring agents or scouring
sponges for cleaning.
• Prevent liquids from entering the keyboard.
• Do not remove the keycaps of the keyboard.
1 Switch off the PC.
2 Clean the keyboard with a slightly damp cloth
and some mild cleaning agent (e.g. dish washing
liquid).
3 Dry off the keyboard with a soft, lint-free cloth.
5.2 RSI syndrome
RSI stands for "Repetitive Strain
Injury". RSI arises due to small
movements continuously repeated
over a long period of time.
Typical symptoms are discomfort in the fingers or
neck.
• Set up your workspace ergonomically.
• Position the keyboard and mouse in such a
manner that your upper arms and wrists are
outstretched and to the sides of your body.
• Take several short breaks, with stretching
exercises if necessary.
• Change your posture often.
5.3 Troubleshooting
• Use another USB port on the PC/laptop.
• To make sure that the keyboard is not defective,
test it if possible with another PC/laptop.
• Set the option "USB Keyboard Support" or "USB
Legacy Mode" to enabled in the BIOS of the PC.
6 Disposal
Dispose of the used device at an official
collection point for electronic waste or at
