Product Information
Full details
The Accuratus AccuMed 104V2 is a robust, white, full-size medical keyboard designed for high-hygiene environments. Its key benefit is its IP68 waterproof and latex-free silicone covering, making it easy to clean and disinfect, ideal for hospitals and dental practices. A potential caveat for some users might be the wired USB connection, which offers stability but less flexibility than wireless options.

Does the smart card reader require special software?
The smart card reader itself is plug-and-play at a hardware level. However, the software or application you use to interact with the smart card (e.g., for secure login or digital signatures) will likely require specific drivers or middleware. Please consult your system administrator or the provider of your smart card application.
Is the silicone covering removable?
No, the silicone covering is an integrated part of the keyboard's design for its waterproof and hygienic properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:

- Your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux) should automatically detect the keyboard and install the necessary drivers. No additional software is typically required.
- For the smart card reader, specific drivers or middleware might be necessary depending on your operating system and the smart card application being used. Consult your system administrator or the smart card provider for these.
Compatibility:
- Operating Systems: Compatible with Windows (7, 8, 10), macOS, and Linux.
- Connectivity: Wired USB Type-A.
Care and Cleaning:
- Regular Cleaning: To clean the surface, use a soft cloth dampened with water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution. Wipe dry immediately.
- Disinfection: For disinfection, use a standard medical-grade disinfectant approved for use on electronics. Apply the disinfectant to a cloth, not directly to the keyboard.
- Cleaning Function: To clean thoroughly without inputting data, press the dedicated cleaning function key (often indicated by a clean icon). This disables all keys temporarily. Press the same key again to re-enable the keyboard.
- Water Immersion: While IP68 rated, avoid prolonged submersion. Ensure the keyboard is completely dry before reconnecting if it has been exposed to significant liquid.
