[Personal organization] Practical shortcut keys for Android, Win, MAC, and practical tips for the Royal Axe R108 mechanical keyboard

1. Android shortcut keys

2. Practical skills of Royal Ax keyboard - light effect, power display, keyboard driver, Fn function key combination

3. Keyboard macro editing

4. Firmware upgrade process

My mobile phone model is Xiaomi 9 MIUI 12, so the following will introduce the Android shortcut keys with MIUI 12 as an example

❤️Cmd+Backspace Return

❤️Cmd+Enter key to return to the main screen

❤️Alt+TAB cut to the list of recently used programs

❤️Cmd+Space switch keyboard layout (Azerbaijani, Arabic, English QWERT layout, English Dvorak layout...)

⭐️Cmd+/ Display shortcut key list

⭐️Cmd+N notification bar

Some applications can also use shortcut keys to call out:

⭐️Cmd+A - Calculator

⭐️Cmd+L - Calendar

⭐️Cmd+B - Browser

⭐️Cmd+E - Email

⭐️Cmd+C - Contacts

⭐️Cmd+S - SMS

The following shortcut keys are tested to be compatible with the combination of Yufu R108 device + Xiaomi 9 MIUI12:

❤️1. If you are watching what is worth buying , when your Android device is placed on the stand—— PageUp and PageDown You can turn pages while browsing the web. (The page turning function is only supported by some apps)

❤️2. Fn+F area play key Can operate BI off ratio video play and pause (But there is currently no button that supports long press and fast forward) ⭐️3. Fn+Volume key You can adjust volume

❤️4. Screen capture button PrtSc can be used for mobile phone screenshot

⭐️5.Ctrl to the left menu button Can switch program

Here are the two lighting effects that I think are the most interesting so far:

⭐️Music rhythm - the light effect follows the music of the player (need to cooperate with the driver)

⭐️Light and shadow - follow the monitor screen (need to cooperate with the driver)

1. Fn+Del to turn on the light

2. Press and hold Fn+Spacebar , see how many numbers 1-0 light up, such as 9, which means there is 90% power

To install the keyboard driver, you can enter the following interface

You can register an account to synchronize keyboard settings

Configure button mapping

0

The Fn layer can also configure key mapping

Lighting can choose 18+4 styles. The last 4 need to connect to this driver for setting.

Royal Ax officially wrote instructions for the Fn function keys (the numbers in the figure below correspond to the keys in the figure above), but not every key is compatible with Android, Win, and MAC systems. In order to save everyone from detours, I will add my actual measurement situation below:

Android:

F1 screen dimming ✅ F2 screen brightening ✅ F3 multi-screen display ❌ F4 return to desktop ❌ (Cmd+Enter) F5 media player ❌ F6 play/pause ✅ F7 previous song ✅ F8 next song ✅

Win10:

F1 screen dimming ✅ F2 screen brightening ✅ F3 multi-screen display ✅ F4 return to the desktop ✅ (Win+D) F5 media player ✅ (you can open the default player Windows Media Player) F6 play/pause ✅ F7 previous song ✅ F8 next song✅

MAC:

F1 screen dimming ✅ F2 screen brightening ✅ F3 multi-screen display ❌ (Ctrl+↑) F4 return to desktop ❌ F5 media player ❌ F6 play/pause ✅ F7 previous song ✅ F8 next song ✅

Android:

F9 Mute ✅ F10 Volume Down ✅ F11 Volume Up ✅ F12 Input Method Switching ❌(Cmd+Space)

Win10:

F9 Mute ✅ F10 Volume Down ✅ F11 Volume Up ✅ F12 Input Method Switching ✅ (Ctrl+Space/Shift Chinese-English switching)

MAC:

F9 mute ✅ F10 volume down ✅ F11 volume up ✅ F12 input method switching ❌ (actually open focus search)

These are the control buttons for the lights:

What I usually use is:

⭐️Fn+Del light on/off

⭐️Fn+Ins light mode change

⭐️Fn+Backspace key Monochrome switching

In addition, Royal Ax has also developed several special buttons - from left to right in the picture below, they are back to the previous page, Fn lock, computer monitor lock screen, calculator

Android:

Return to previous page ✅ Fn lock ✅ Computer monitor lock screen ❌ (measured as open calendar ) calculator ✅(The actual measurement can open the calculator, but the number cannot be entered)

Win:

Return to previous page ✅ Fn lock ✅ Computer monitor lock screen ✅ Calculator ✅

MAC:

Back to previous page ❌ Fn lock ❌ Computer monitor lock screen ❌ Calculator ❌

Keyboard macros are very useful for simplifying input. Let me take the screenshot shortcut keys of the MAC system as an example to demonstrate the editing of macros.

First open the macro editor window

Record keyboard macros in the editing area on the right, or add them one by one in the way of adding

Return to the main keyboard configuration interface, click the button that needs to configure the macro, for example, select F1, and check the macro file just saved

After the recording is completed, the button turns green to indicate that the macro command has been bound

The 402 firmware of Yufu cannot support the connection of the driver on the mac, and the firmware needs to be updated to the 404 version. First download the driver from the official website.

Download the corresponding driver according to your model

After inquiry, my keyboard firmware is version 402. According to the official document, the firmware version 402 cannot open the driver on the mac interface. So you need to upgrade the firmware under the win interface. The driver I installed for the first time was unsuccessful, and I entered such an interface↓All buttons are unusable.

The solution is to reconnect the win computer used for firmware upgrade, open the driver software, it will automatically re-enter the firmware upgrade mode, and wait for the firmware upgrade to complete. After the firmware upgrade is complete, the keyboard lights will all light up.

At present, the shortcut keys of win and mac are basically fixed, but the shortcut keys of Android system still have certain differences among major companies. Therefore, the overall support of the Bluetooth keyboard for the Android system needs to be improved. This article is a version compiled by individuals in practice. There are many shortcomings. I hope that partners who have researched on shortcut keys and recording keyboard macros will actively leave a message~
