This tutorial will show you how to use the following features in Logitech Mouse and Keyboard software (SetPoint):

• Customizing the programmable keys
• Programming function keys

• Securing your keyboard

Customizing the programmable keys

To change key assignments, set up a desktop search tool, assign keystrokes and more, do the following:

1. Launch SetPoint (Start > Programs > Logitech > Mouse and Keyboard > Mouse and Keyboard Settings).

   NOTE: If you do not have SetPoint installed, you can download it from the MK300 Downloads Page.

2. Once SetPoint opens, click the My Keyboard tab. Then select the MK300 from the Select Keyboard drop-down menu.

   

3. Select the key you wish to customize under the Select Hot Key field.

   

4. Select the task you want the key to perform. Click Help for detailed descriptions of these options.

   

5. Certain options may generate a sub-menu. In the example above, we selected the Application Switcher key. Select which window the key should display.

   

6. Click Apply, then OK to close SetPoint.

Programming function keys

The Function Keys, or F-Keys, are the keys on labelled F1 through F12 above the number keys.

Similar to the programmable keys discussed above, the F-Keys can also be programmed to perform certain functions.

NOTE: To use an F-key, simultaneously press the FN key (shown below) and the F-key you want to use.

1. Launch SetPoint and click the My Keyboard tab.

2. Select the F Key Settings tab at the left side and make sure that you choose the MK300 from the Select Keyboard drop-down menu.

   

3. Select the F key you wish to program under the Select F Key field.

   

4. Select the task you wish the F key to perform from the Select Task field. Click Help for detailed descriptions of these options.

   

5. Click Apply, then OK to close SetPoint.

Disabling keys

You can disable keys you do not normally use.

1. Launch SetPoint and click the My Keyboard tab.

2. Select the Keyboard Inactive Key Settings tab at the left side and choose your MK300 from the Select Keyboard drop-down menu.

   

3. Click on the checkboxes to disable keys you do not use. Click Help for detailed descriptions of these options.

4. Click Apply and OK to close SetPoint.

Securing your keyboard

You can secure your keyboard to protect your privacy. This is recommended when you use your keyboard in an environment with other 27MHz devices within a six foot (two meter) range. To secure your keyboard, do the following:

1. Launch SetPoint and click the My Keyboard tab.

2. Select the Keyboard Connection tab at the left side and choose your MK300 from the Select Keyboard drop-down menu.

   

3. If you see the message ‘Your keyboard is not secured’ as shown above, click Secure.

4. The Encryption Wizard will start. Follow the on-screen instructions.

5. After the Encryption Wizard finishes, you should see the ‘Your keyboard is secured’ message.

   

6. Click Apply to save your settings. Click OK to exit SetPoint.
