3.6 Removable Palm Supports

The palm supports are detachable so you can customize the keyboard
based on your typing and gaming preferences. To remove, flip the keyboard
over and gently wiggle the palm support to lift the tabs over the bumps on
the underside of the keyboard, and then pull straight out. To reattach, slide
the palm rests into the key modules until they latch into place. Note: if the
palm support doesn't snap into place easily you may be trying to attach it to
the wrong key module, or it may be misaligned.

3.7 SmartSet Programming Engine- Onboard Shortcuts

The SmartSet key is used in conjunction with the F7-F12 keys to activate
onboard shortcuts. Onboard shortcuts are legended in italics to differentiate
them from embedded Fn layer actions. Additional (unlegended) onboard
shortcuts are described in Sections 4.10 - 4.15.
To trigger an onboard shortcut, first press and hold the SmartSet
Key and then tap F7-F11. To prevent against accidentally
triggering the Soft Reset shortcut you must also press and hold
Shift along with the SmartSet Key before tapping F12 ("RESET"
appears in all-caps to indicate that it requires the shift key). For a
detailed explanation of onboard shortcuts see Section 4.

3.8 Adjustable Linking Cable

The two key modules are connected by a 20" braided linking cable that can
be adjusted to suit your preferences and gaming style. The basic
configuration allows for up to 12" of separation. If you need additional cable,
simply remove the cable compartment cover on the back of the left key
module and thread out more of the stored cable. Once you have achieved
the desired cable length, carefully fit the excess cable into the compartment
removing any kinks and slide the cable cover onuntil it latches.
Rotate the left key module as needed to remove any
kinks from the cable so it lies flat.
Position the key modules in the optimal configuration relative to your other
input devices, or separate the modules to shoulder-width for maximum
typing comfort. There is no wrong way to configure the Edge, experiment
with different positions to find the configurations that work best for you.

3.9 Game Bank

The Game Bank comprises eight fully programmable keys (blank by
default) that can be programmed to perform any custom key action or
macro, in either layer. The Game Bank is perfect for moving critical right-
sided keys over to the left key module to enable one-handed play.
