With this keyboard, the FN key is in "locked mode". This means that the FN key can only be used to permanently switch between FN and F5. Can this be switched off somehow? The FN action should only be executed if I press FN and F5 at the same time. On notebooks, this can sometimes be switched off with FN + CAPSLOCK or by pressing the FN key for a long time. But it didn't work with this keyboard. Also cool: The lamp of the FN key lights up when the key is NOT in FN mode. When FN is switched on, it does not light up.

So when I briefly click the FN key, it is locked. This means that from then on the functions are switched to F1-F12. When I click it again, the light goes out and from then on I have the function keys again (volume etc.). If I press FN+ a key, it becomes the opposite. But the lock is not affected by this. The light is also correct for me. Light on = keys are function keys (F1-F12). Light off = keys are Windows functions. The FN key therefore offers full flexibility. Or is there another problem that I don't understand either?

...oh - my bad - I wanted to write that you can only use the FN key when it is locked. Maybe there will be an update some day...

Yes, the FN button cannot be lured - which I also find a pity. However, the FN button lights up correctly when you want to use the FN buttons in FN mode.
...but what is your question now? ;-)
