About X-Keys

X-Keys makes configurable USB input hardware, including programmable keyboards, keypads, switch interfaces, foot controls, pointing devices and controllers for production workflows. Its devices can assign keyboard commands, mouse actions and other controls to physical keys, switches or pedals. Selected models support hardware mode, which stores programming on the device for use without continuously running software. X-Keys also provides software and developer tools for supported devices, including Windows software and SDKs for Windows, Mac, Linux and Android.

Choose a compact keypad such as the XK-24 or XK-12 when you need a smaller set of programmable controls. Larger models such as the XK-60 and XK-80 provide more keys for complex workflows, while the XK-4 Stick suits a small group of dedicated controls. Check the product page for the supported operating system and connection details. Tall keycaps, key blockers and blank legend sheets can help identify or configure individual keys. X-Keys USB devices use USB HID, with programming options varying by model.

X-Keys questions

What is X-Keys used for?

X-Keys devices provide programmable physical controls for computer workflows. Depending on the model, keys, switches, pedals or other controls can send keyboard commands, mouse actions and assigned functions. They are used for applications including production, editing and other workflows that benefit from dedicated controls.

Do X-Keys devices work without software running?

Supported X-Keys devices can use hardware mode after programming has been written to their onboard memory. In this mode, the device can be used with an operating system or single-board computer that supports USB HID without continuously running programming software. Check the individual model for supported features.

Which X-Keys accessories can I use to customise a keyboard?

X-Keys accessories stocked by Electronic Australia include tall transparent keycaps, key blockers and blank legend sheets for single keys. These can help change key height, cover selected keys or create labels. Check the specific keyboard and accessory details to confirm fit and intended use.
