Think Outside Stowaway universal bluetooth keyboard model xtbt01

Orienting the Keyboard

Hold the folded up keyboard so the mostly flat side is on the table and the PDA stand's hinge is away from you.  You will find three dots on the left edge. Below the dots on the end is a tab that when pressed in will open the keyboard.  As you open up slowly it will flatten out and lock in place.
You will find two space bars on the first row closest to you.

Remember, when using a QWERTY keyboard with the PK, you can only use text commands, not braille. If you plan to create documents in KeyWord, you will want to change the default file type to text, or MS-Word, etc.

To get the pk and the Think Outside keyboard communicating with each other:
On the Keyboard, press control, left function and right function together and hold them down for a couple of seconds to make sure the keyboard is ready to be paired.
On the PK, hit control plus o for options; hit c for connectivity, then b for bluetooth.
Hit Y for turning on bluetooth.
Hit Y to start it searching.  When it finds the Think outside keyboard, hit Y to pair and activate the keyboard.  When it asks for an authentication code, you can simply hit enter for an unsecured connection, or type in an authentication code for a secure connection. There isn't a specific code that is used for authentication. The code is a numeric code that the user chooses. It's entered first on the PK, followed by the enter key. Then, immediately enter the same code on the Bluetooth Keyboard with the Left Function key and the number row keys, such as 1234 which would be done with Function key plus q w e r on the BlueTooth Keyboard. Followed with Enter on the BT Keyboard to complete the pair. Then hit chord-(for sign, which is dots 1,2,3,4,5,6) on the PK to go back to the main menu.
If it doesn't work the first time, go back into the list of bluetooth devices and see if it says that the ThinkOutside keyboard is paired and active.  If it only says, "paired," then hit enter on that and when it asks if you want to remove the pairing or Activate the keyboard, hit "a" to activate.  Then you should be in business.

When you are finished using the keyboard, you can press control plus left function plus right function again for approximately one second to turn off the keyboard. If you wish, you can then go back to Options, Connectivity, Bluetooth and hit N to turn off the bluetooth.
The spring that allows you to fold the keyboard up again is on the top edge of the keyboard, directly above the dash key. Slide it to the right and hold it there while you start folding up the keyboard.

The Bluetooth Keyboard layout for the PK is:
First row (closest to you):
Control, Windows key, Read key, Left Function, Space, Space, Right Function, Left Arrow, Down Arrow, Right Arrow, Delete.

second row:

Third Row:

If you want the above information in a braille file, KeyWord type, I had to put it in a zip file to get Internet Explorer to down load it, so click on this link and save it, then unzip it and put the .kwb file on your PK:
