Notes on my Keychron Keyboard

This blog post mostly contains information that I usually forget about my Keychron K2V2.

Battery Status

Command Line : upower --dump | grep keyboard -A 7

Backlight : Press Fn+b to activate the battery status backlight.

| Charge     | Status             |
|------------|--------------------|
| 100% - 70% | Whole keyboard on  |
| 69% - 30%  | First row off      |
| 29% - 00%  | First two rows off |

Function Key

  • Try holding Fn + X + L until the keyboard blinks
  • Try running one of these until it works the way you expect to:
    • echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/module/hid_apple/parameters/fnmode
    • echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/module/hid_apple/parameters/fnmode
