The mWave for Mac Mechanical Keyboard from Kinesis Corporation will look very familiar to those familiar with the discontinued Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Keyboard. Visually it features the same familiar layout (but with the key addition of an FN key - a known weakness of the Microsoft Sculpt layout), very similar contours, and a slightly narrower footprint. Kinesis has added a number of subtle improvements that may not be readily apparent.
While visually very similar to the Microsoft Sculpt the mWave is equipped with more traditional crowned keycaps, with a secondary colour for home row keys as a visual cue for finger placement. In addition, the home row and arrow keys have a more distinct concave surface, providing a tactile indicator to enhance finger placement. The keyboard is also equipped with white backlighting when in the wired mode, with laser-etched shine-through keycaps for typing in low-light environments. The backlighting can be set to three levels of intensity, or turned off.
Below the keycaps are the most important feature, the Gateron Brown mechanical keyswitches offer a 55 gram activation and provide both tactile and a low-level audible feedback upon activation. With a full travel of 3 mm and 1.3 mm of post-activation movement these switches offer a greatly enhanced and more responsive typing experience. Paired with all of the features above is the option of driverless advanced programming. Whether there is a desire to customize a single key function or to entirely re-program the entire layout, the Kinesis Clique web-based programming interface (requires Chrome or Edge browser) provides access to almost unlimited custom programming options. Once programmed the mWave is completely browser and driver free, perfect for deployment where additional software is not permitted.
The mWave has a soft integrated cushioned palm support with a washable surface and includes three legs that attach magnetically to elevate the front of the support to create a 5° negative tilt. This can aid in reducing the risk of wrist extension. However, because this elevates the keyboard typists need to ensure that they are able to adjust the keyboard position to an appropriate height or they may actually be moving to a "less" ergonomic position when attaching the riser. There is also an Up-Arrow indicator that flashes when the FN layer is active and glows solid when the embedded numpad is activated.
The mWave Mechanical Keyboard is able to function either as a fully wired keyboard by using the included data cable or as a wireless bluetooth device able to support simultaneous connections to two bluetooth devices. Switching between the three connections is done using the Profile Switch centrally located between the hands. When set to the wired mode the bluetooth radio connection is disabled for full data security.
Le mWave for Mac Mechanical Keyboard de Kinesis Corporation semblera très familier à ceux qui connaissent l'ancien clavier discontinuer Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Keyboard. Visuellement, il présente la même disposition familière (mais avec l'ajout d'une touche FN - une faiblesse connue de la disposition de Microsoft Sculpt), des contours très similaires et un empreinte légèrement plus étroit. Kinesis a ajouté un certain nombre d'améliorations élaboré qui ne sont pas toujours évidentes.
Tandis qu'il soit visuellement très similaire au Microsoft Sculpt, le mWave est équipé de capuchons couronnées plus traditionnelles, avec une couleur secondaire pour le Home Row afin de donner un signal visuel pour le placement des doigts. En plus, le Home Row et les touches fléchées ont une surface concave plus distincte, offrant un indicateur tactile pour améliorer le positionnement des doigts. Le clavier est également équipé d'un rétroéclairage blanc en mode avec fil, avec les capuchons gravées au laser et transparentes pour la dactylo dans des environnements peu éclairés. Le rétroéclairage peut être ajuster sur trois niveaux d'intensité ou désactivé.
Les touches mécaniques Gateron Brown offrent une activation de 55 grammes et fournissent un retour tactile et audible bas lors de l'activation. Avec une course complète de 3mm et un mouvement post-activation de 1.3mm, ces commutateurs offrent une expérience de dactylo considérablement améliorée et plus réactive. En plus, l'option de programmation avancée sans pilote est aussi un option. Qu'il s'agisse de personnaliser une seule fonction de touche ou de reprogrammer entièrement la disposition, l'interface de programmation Web Kinesis Clique (nécessite un navigateur Chrome ou Edge) permet d'accéder à des options de programmation personnalisées presque sans limites. Une fois programmé, le mWave est totalement libre de navigateur et de pilote, ce qui est parfait pour les déploiements où l'utilisation de logiciels supplémentaires n'est pas autorisée.
Le mWave a un support de paume doux qui est intégré, avec une surface lavable, et comprend trois pieds qui se fixent magnétiquement pour élever l'avant du support afin de créer une inclinaison négative de 5°. Cela peut contribuer à réduire le risque d'extension du poignet. Toutefois, cela suréleve le clavier, donc les gens doivent s'assurer qu'ils peuvent ajuster la position du clavier à une hauteur appropriée, ou ils risquent d'adopter une position "moins" ergonomique lorsqu'ils fixent les trois pieds. Il y a aussi un indicateur de flèche vers le haut qui clignote lorsque la couche FN est active et reste allumé lorsque le pavé numérique intégré est activé.
Le mWave Mechanical Keyboard peut fonctionner soit comme un clavier entièrement avec fil en utilisant le câble inclus, ou comme un clavier sans fil bluetooth capable de supporter des connexions simultanées à deux dispositifs bluetooth. Le passage d'une connexion à l'autre s'effectue à l'aide du Profile Switch situé au centre, entre les mains. En mode avec fil, la connexion radio bluetooth est désactivée pour une sécurité totale des données.

The X-keys XBE-24 Keypad from PI Engineering is a robust programmable keypad that lets individuals customize their input by mapping complex macros, specialized commands, and shortcuts to a single key. The keypad can be programmed in two ways. In software mode the programming software stores the program on the host computer, ideal for situations where revisions to the programming may be required. In hardware mode the programming is written to the internal memory and the device can be pre-programmed and then deployed to any computer that accepts USB keyboard input.
The XBE-24 Keypad can be programmed in 2 distinct layers with 46 programmable functions and serve as addition or substitution to the standard USB keyboard. This device can send keystrokes to any operating system or application which recognizes a USB keyboard. Clear key lenses keep printed or handwritten legends securely in place and protect them from wear while making it quick and easy to update them. XBE-24 keypads are also equipped with fully addressable RGB backlighting (both colour and intensity), and have two separately programmable LEDs per switch.
The Free MacroWorks 3 (MW3) Software for Windows provides simple programming for launching applications, opening files or accessing directories. It also facilitates the insertion of special characters, foreign language letters and symbols as Unicode text strings which can then be assigned to any key. MacroWorks 3 can be used to program the keypad in hardware mode for deployment on Mac computers. Mac users also have the option of the basic X-Keys Mac App or the third party Keyboard Maestro software. PI Engineering's new PI3 firmware offers new capabilities to the developer including flash updates, a joystick / mouse emulation and the newly developed Reflector Mode. Reflector Mode allows the developer to send outbound messages to the X-keys which can be reflected back to the Operating System in keyboard, mouse or joystick data stream.
XBE-24 Keypads are designed for survival in rough environments with a machined aluminum housing. The robust design makes these equally suitable for deployment in office or industrial settings. The base is angled to offer enhanced viewing in landscape mode and the backlighting also makes them ideal where lighting levels are low.

The Advantage360 PRO Contoured Keyboard from Kinesis takes the proven fusion of performance and ergonomics of the 3-dimensional concave keywell design and adds in additional ergonomic capabilities. This design now incorporates established ergonomic concepts of customizable tent, angle and separation that Kinesis has featured for many years in their well-known Freestyle line of keyboards. This version of the Kinesis Contoured Keyboard family can now deliver unparalleled levels of comfort and productivity for touch typists of all body types and builds while offering advanced ergonomic features and the added versatility of optional cordless Bluetooth connectivity. The Advantage360 serves as a neutral ergonomic data input interface for all touch typists. Anyone who considers their keyboard a core tool for their workstation should consider this keyboard. The contoured keyboard family is the only keyboard that addresses ergonomics down to the level of the fingertips. It does this by intelligently redistributing the repetitive activity associated with typing to minimize the potential of fatigue. Advantage Contoured keyboards are especially popular with those who perform keyboard intensive work, including programmers, transcriptionists, writers, and web content developers.
The Advantage360 Contoured Keyboard has several improvements over prior Advantage models. The new separated design affords the individual nearly infinite freedom to position the keyboard modules to create the optimal keyboard solution for the workspace. In addition, the new 3 position tent available in each module aids in further reducing pronation and the associated risk of repetitive strain that can occur with intensive and long-term keyboarding. In order to minimize the keyboard size and reduce unnecessary finger reach the function row has been eliminated with those functions now accessible via a FN layer in the primary keys. The 10-key numeric keypad embedded in the right-hand module continues to provide instant access for numeric entry, without moving the hand out of home position.
The Advantage360 Pro is available equipped with either Tactile or Linear keyswitches. The Gateron Brown low-force tactile mechanical keyswitches have an activation force of 45 grams and a maximum force of 55 grams. These responsive switches offer the tactile feedback that is necessary for intense and rapid data entry. The Advantage360 Pro Linear Quiet model employs Kailh Box Pink low-force Linear Quiet mechanical keyswitches with a low activation force of just 35 grams. These switches offer light activation but no activation indicator. In order to take full advantage of the global white backlighting on the PRO models they are equipped with shine-through ABS plastic keycaps. Those who are willing to sacrifice the shine-through feature for higher quality PBT keycaps can purchase optional QWERTY, DVORAK and Blank sets of opaque PBT keycaps.
*(Note: As is the case with most linear keyswitches, the lack of any tactile feedback can lead to inadvertently exerting significantly more force than is required to actuate the keystroke.) Learn more about Tactility on Keyboards - How to Evaluate Soft or Light Touch (Keyboards).
The Advantage360 PRO version offers almost unlimited programmability through multiple interface options. The web-based KINESIS CLIQUE programming interface greatly enhances the primary keyboard functions, enabling anyone to customize the keyboard to minimize unnecessary key strokes, awkward reaches for shortcuts, etc. Supported in Edge and Chrome browsers, this convenient programming interface provides access to a wide range of custom programming that will be expanding as development of further features continues. Those considering using KINESIS CLIQUE may wish to consider how this interface can be used to enhance the performance of Advantage360 Pro by visiting KINESIS CLIQUE.
Another programming option is the open-source ZMK Programming Engine, available online through GitHub. This is an advanced programming interface designed for those with at least some degree of programming knowledge. It can accommodate an exceptional degree of customization for the Advantage360 PRO. Because of the programming knowledge required to perform customization on the Advantage360 PRO model it is recommended that prior to purchasing this model purchasers should acquaint themselves with the ZMK platform and determine its suitability for their knowledge level.
For individuals who may not be comfortable with either the ZMK or KINESIS CLIQUE advanced programming options for customizing the Advantage360 PRO, the corded Advantage360 comes preloaded with the highly-functional and much more intuitive SmartSet Programming Engine which facilitates the development and storage of up to nine custom keyboard layouts and as well as complex macros to reduce repetitive or awkward keystrokes and maximize productivity. The Advantage360 is PC and Mac compatible, and includes additional hard-wired features such as unlimited custom key remapping, macro playback speed, and keyboard status reports. The corded Advantage360 is equipped with high quality opaque PBT keycaps.
Le clavier Advantage360 PRO Contoured Keyboard de Kinesis prend la combinasion éprouvée des performances et de l'ergonomie de la forme en 3-dimensions des concave keywells et y ajoute des capacités ergonomiques supplémentaires. Cette forme intègre maintenant les concepts ergonomiques établis d'inclinaison, d'angle et de séparation personnalisables que Kinesis a établis depuis de nombreuses années dans sa gamme bien connu des claviers Freestyle. Cette version de la famille des claviers Kinesis Contoured Keyboard peut maintenant offrir des niveaux de confort et de productivité unique aux dactylographes de tous types de corps, tout en offrant des caractéristiques ergonomiques avancées et la polyvalence supplémentaire de la connectivité Bluetooth sans fil. L'Advantage360 sert d'interface de saisie de données ergonomique et neutre pour tous les gens qui font beaucoup de dactylo. Toute personne qui considère leur clavier d'être un outil essentiel au travail devrait considérer ce clavier. La famille des claviers contoured sont les seuls claviers qui prennent en compte l'ergonomie jusqu'au niveau du bout des doigts. Pour ce faire, il redistribue intelligemment l'action répétitive associée avec la dactylograph afin de minimiser le potentiel de fatigue. Les claviers Advantage Contoured Keyboards sont particulièrement populaire avec les personnes qui font la dactylographe intensifs incluants les programmateurs, transcripteurs, écrivains/auteurs, et dévelopeurs de contenu sur le web.
L'Advantage360 Contoured Keyboard présente plusieurs améliorations par rapport aux modèles Advantage précédents. La nouvelle conception séparée offre à l'individu une liberté presque infinie pour positionner les modules de clavier afin de créer la solution de clavier optimale pour l'espace de travail. De plus, la nouvelle inclinaison à 3 positions disponible dans chaque module permet de réduire davantage la pronation et le risque associé de tension répétitive qui peut se produire lors d'une utilisation intensive et prolongée du clavier. Afin de minimiser la taille du clavier et de réduire le risque d'étendre les doigts, la rangée de fonctions a été éliminée et les fonctions sont maintenant accessibles par une couche FN dans les touches primaires. Le pavé numérique à 10 touches intégré dans le module de droite continue de fournir un accès instantané à la saisie numérique, sans déplacer la main hors de sa position initiale.
L'Advantage360 Pro est disponible soit avec des touches mécaniques Tactile ou Linear. La touche mécanique Gateron Brown low-force Tactile a une force d'activation de 45 grammes et une force maximale de 55 grammes. Ces touches réactives offrent le retour tactile nécessaire pour la dactylo intense et rapide. La touche mécanique Kailh Box Pink low-force Linear Quiet a une force d'activation minimal de seulement 35 grammes. Ces touches offrent une activation légère mais aucun indicateur d'activation. Afin de prendre avantage du rétroéclairage blanc global sur les modèles PRO, les touches sont surmontées de capuchons en plastique ABS brillant (shine-through). Pour ceux qui sont prêts à sacrifier la caractéristique de brillance (shine-through) pour des touches PBT de meilleure qualité, les touches PBT opaques de QWERTY, DVORAK et Blank sont disponibles comme options.
*(Veuillez noter: Comme c'est le cas avec la plupart des interrupteurs Linéaires, l'absence de retour tactile peut causer par inadvertance une force beaucoup plus qui est nécessaire pour actionner la touche.) En savoir plus sur la tactilité des claviers, voir Tactility on Keyboards - How to Evaluate Soft or Light Touch .
La version Advantage360 PRO offre une programmabilité presque infini grâce à de multiples options d'interface. L'interface de programmation KINESIS CLIQUE basée sur le web améliore considérablement les fonctions du clavier principal, permettant à chacun de personnaliser le clavier afin de minimiser les frappes inutiles, les actions difficile pour accéder aux raccourcis, etc. Supporter par les navigateurs Edge et Chrome, cette interface de programmation pratique permet d'accéder à une grande gamme de programmes personnalisés qui grandis au fur et à mesure du développement de nouvelles fonctionnalités. Les personnes qui considère d'utiliser KINESIS CLIQUE peuvent considérer la manière dont cette interface peut être utilisée pour améliorer les performances d'Advantage360 Pro en visitant KINESIS CLIQUE . Une autre option de programmation est le ZMK Programming Engine open-source, disponible en ligne sur GitHub. Il s'agit d'une interface de programmation avancée conçue pour les personnes ayant au moins quelques connaissances en programmation. Elle permet un degré exceptionnel de personnalisation de l'Advantage360 PRO. En raison des connaissances en programmation nécessaire pour personnaliser le modèle Advantage360 PRO, il est recommandé aux acheteurs de se familiariser avec la plateforme ZMK avant d'acheter ce modèle et de déterminer si elle est adaptée à leur niveau de connaissances.
Pour les personnes qui ne sont pas à l'aise avec les exigences de soit le ZMK ou le KINESIS CLIQUE programmation avancées pour la personnalisation de l'Advantage360 PRO, l'Advantage360 avec fil est préchargé avec le hautement fonctionnel et beaucoup plus intuitif SmartSet Programming Engine, qui facilite le développement et d'avoir jusqu'à 9 dispositions de clavier personnalisées. L'Advantage360 est compatible avec PC et Mac et comprend des fonctions supplémentaires hard-wired telles que le remappage infini des touches personnalisées, la vitesse de lecture des macros et les rapports d'état du clavier.

The Advantage360 PRO Linear Quiet Contoured Keyboard from Kinesis features low-force Kailh Box Pink switches with just 35 grams of activation force. As with all Advantage 360 Contoured Keyboards, it takes the proven fusion of performance and ergonomics of the 3-dimensional concave keywell design and adds in additional ergonomic capabilities. This design now incorporates established ergonomic concepts of customizable tent, angle and separation that Kinesis has featured for many years in their well-known Freestyle line of keyboards. This version of the Kinesis Contoured Keyboard family can now deliver unparalleled levels of comfort and productivity for touch typists of all body types and builds while offering advanced ergonomic features and the added versatility of cordless Bluetooth connectivity. The Advantage360 serves as a neutral ergonomic data input interface for all touch typists. Anyone who considers their keyboard a core tool for their workstation should consider this keyboard. The contoured keyboard family is the only keyboard that addresses ergonomics down to the level of the fingertips. It does this by intelligently redistributing the repetitive activity associated with typing to minimize the potential of fatigue. Advantage Contoured keyboards are especially popular with those who perform keyboard intensive work, including programmers, transcriptionists, writers, and web content developers.
The Advantage360 Contoured Keyboard has several improvements over prior Advantage models. The new separated design affords the individual nearly infinite freedom to position the keyboard modules to create the optimal keyboard solution for the workspace. In addition, the new 3 position tent available in each module aids in further reducing pronation and the associated risk of repetitive strain that can occur with intensive and long-term keyboarding. In order to minimize the keyboard size and reduce unnecessary finger reach the function row has been eliminated with those functions now accessible via a FN layer in the primary keys. The 10-key numeric keypad embedded in the right-hand module continues to provide instant access for numeric entry, without moving the hand out of home position.
The Advantage360 Pro Linear Quiet Contoured Keyboard employs low-force Kailh Box Pink switches with just 35 grams of activation force. In order to take advantage of the global white backlighting on the PRO model the switches are topped with shine-through ABS plastic keycaps. For those who are willing to sacrifice the shine-through feature for higher quality PBT keycaps there are optional QWERTY, DVORAK and Blank sets of opaque PBT keycaps available.
The Advantage360 PRO version offers almost unlimited programmability through multiple interface options. The web-based KINESIS CLIQUE programming interface greatly enhances the primary keyboard functions, enabling anyone to customize the keyboard to minimize unnecessary key strokes, awkward reaches for shortcuts, etc. Supported in Edge and Chrome browsers, this convenient programming interface provides access to a wide range of custom programming that will be expanding as development of further features continues. Those considering using KINESIS CLIQUE may wish to consider how this interface can be used to enhance the performance of Advantage360 Pro by visiting KINESIS CLIQUE.
Another programming option is the open-source ZMK Programming Engine, available online through GitHub. This is an advanced programming interface designed for those with at least some degree of programming knowledge. It can accommodate an exceptional degree of customization for the Advantage360 PRO. Because of the programming knowledge required to perform customization on the Advantage360 PRO model it is recommended that prior to purchasing this model purchasers should acquaint themselves with the ZMK platform and determine its suitability for their knowledge level.
For individuals who may not be comfortable with either the ZMK or KINESIS CLIQUE advanced programming options for customizing the Advantage360 PRO,
the corded Advantage360 comes preloaded with the highly-functional and much more intuitive SmartSet Programming Engine which facilitates the development and storage of up to nine custom keyboard layouts and as well as complex macros to reduce repetitive or awkward keystrokes and maximize productivity. The Advantage360 is PC and Mac compatible, and includes additional hard-wired features such as unlimited custom key remapping, macro playback speed, and keyboard status reports. The corded Advantage360 is also equipped with high quality opaque PBT keycaps.
Note: If a tactile switch is preferred the Advantage 360 Pro Contoured Keyboard offers all of the same features but is equipped with Gateron Brown low-force tactile mechanical keyswitches with an activation force of 45 grams and a maximum force of 55 grams.
