The ZXP 1000 offers the following features to help make the most of your gaming experience: GAMING PAD First-person and third-person shooter games have always relied on the WASD keys, or some variation of that key pattern, to control navigation through the game world. But traditional keyboards were not designed with this type of functionality in mind. The ZXP 1000 offers gamers an improved set of navigation keys in the Gaming Pad. These keys are larger than those found on a traditional keyboard, so that your fingers will not slip off the key in the heat of combat. Also, they are positioned at a slight angle to ensure maximum comfort over long periods of gaming. If you are unsure about which version of an application you are using, go into that application's `Help'>'About' section to verify the version number. 10 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (Question): My Z Engine System Tray icon stays red. (Answer): Check to ensure that the keyboard is properly attached to a USB port at the back of the PC. Ensure you are not using any intermediate devices between your keyboard and your PC such as PS/2>USB converter, KVM or other PC switch, or cable extension cord. A damp cloth with a dab of dish-washing detergent or "Computer Case and Monitor" cleaning solution, available at any computer store will be sufficient. STORAGE When not in use, store your Gaming Keyboard in a dust-free area, preferably in its original packaging. Keep all the components away from sources of major heat (baseboard heaters, car dashboard, etc. ). Keep the Gaming Keyboard away from any major magnetic sources. 12 HEALTH WARNING As with many activities, when using a computer, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of the body.
