The CIDOO Nebula features a hot-swappable PCB, allowing for easy installation and removal of 3-pin or 5-pin mechanical switches without soldering. Carefully align the pins of your chosen switches with the sockets on the PCB and press down gently until they click into place. Ensure the pins are straight to avoid bending. After installing switches, attach your desired keycaps.

Manutenzione
1. Pulizia
To clean your keyboard, first disconnect it from your computer. Use a keycap puller to remove keycaps. Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove dust and debris from between the switches. Wipe keycaps and the keyboard case with a damp, panno privo di lanugine. Evitare l'uso di prodotti chimici aggressivi.
2. Sostituzione dell'interruttore
When replacing switches, use the provided switch puller tool. Gently grip the switch from the top and bottom clips and pull upwards. When inserting new switches, ensure the pins are perfectly straight and align them carefully with the PCB sockets. Press down firmly but gently. Some users have reported a thin plastic film over the switch pin holes; ensure the switch pins properly penetrate this film to make contact with the PCB. If a key is not registering, remove the switch, straighten any bent pins, and reinsert it.
Risoluzione dei problemi
- Chiavi non registrate: This is often due to bent switch pins or improper insertion. Remove the affected switch, carefully straighten the pins, and reinsert it ensuring it fully seats into the hot-swap socket. Verify that the switch pins penetrate any protective film on the PCB.
- Problemi di connettività (wireless/Bluetooth): Ensure the keyboard is in the correct mode (2.4G or BT) using the switch on the back. For 2.4G, ensure the dongle is securely plugged in. For Bluetooth, ensure the keyboard is discoverable and paired correctly with your device. Try resetting the keyboard (Fn + Backspace) and re-pairing.
- Macros Not Working Correctly (VIA): Some users have reported issues with spaces and special characters in VIA macros, leading to incorrect typing. Ensure your VIA software is up to date. If issues persist, try simpler macros or alternative methods for complex sequences.
- Keyboard Not Charging: Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the keyboard and a power source. Try a different USB-C cable or port.
- Le luci RGB non funzionano: Check backlight settings using FN key combinations (FN + Enter to toggle, FN + \| to change mode). Ensure the keyboard is not in a low-power state.
