First connection

  • The Imperial44 – Wireless Edition keyboard works with devices running Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS.
  • The keyboard connects via Plug and Play (PnP); no additional driver installation is required.
  • The keyboard ships ready to connect to your device with the firmware version current at the time of purchase.
Direct connection (without Ergohaven’s Qube)
  1. Turn on power on the left and right halves of the keyboard — the halves are already synchronized with each other.
  2. Select a connection profile on the keyboard — if you’re connecting to only one device for the first time, you can skip this step.
  3. Connect the keyboard to your device — enable Bluetooth on the device, then complete pairing in the device settings.
Connection via Ergohaven’s Qube

Ergohaven’s Qube is a universal dongle for Ergohaven wireless keyboards that displays useful information and reduces the keyboard’s power consumption.

  1. Connect Ergohaven’s Qube to your computer using a USB Type‑C cable and wait for Qube to boot.
  2. Turn on power on the left half of the keyboard — it will connect to Qube automatically.
  3. Turn on power on the right half — it will also connect to Qube, completing the setup.
