How to use Anne Pro 2 Software?

At first, download the software from the website of Obinslab. Then check for a firmware update. Do upgrade to the latest firmware version. Now you can change the theme, lighting, and start programming from the settings menu.

A Few Tips and Tricks to Use 

  • Download the companion software and upgrade to the latest firmware version. Make sure that you download the latest update which allows better keyboard function and Bluetooth connectivity. 
  • Make sure that you do not unplug it at the time of firmware updating. It will risk causing havoc damage.
  • The keyboard is compatible with one connectivity mode at a time. If you are in USB mode, that means if you have plugged in the keyboard, the Bluetooth connectivity is not going to work at that time. On the other hand, if you are in Bluetooth mode, the wired mode is not going to work. This feature works as a safety measure so that the keyboard does not get frozen while working on dual connecting mode. 
  • If you have got yourself the Anne Pro 2 with a magnetic USB cable, remember that the magnetic head has the polarity due to its built-in design. To make it work properly, ensure that the LED on the magnetic cable is facing the upper side. In case it faces the downwards, it would not work.
  • When you start using the keyboard, keep in mind that it might take a few charge and discharge cycles before the battery notifier starts giving the proper battery level reading. 
  • While connecting over Bluetooth, make sure that you have followed the precisely the same instructions that are there in the user manual. Following the steps, serially is very important to establish a connection. The instruction regarding pressing the buttons for at least 5 seconds is another crucial instruction. If you have tried connecting the keyboard with your device over Bluetooth and if it shows timing out before connecting, make that device forget that Bluetooth connection and then try again following the correct order as stated in the user manual. 
  • If you are having any issues while connecting over Bluetooth again, try opening the companion app and click on the “Reset Bluetooth” button on the home tab. This might help to solve your issues. 
  • If you are still experiencing issues regarding Bluetooth connectivity then, probably you are not running an updated firmware version. Try to update the latest firmware version for a stable Bluetooth connection.
