Configuració
1. Installing Switches and Keycaps
The Keychron Q6 Max is a barebone keyboard, meaning switches and keycaps are not pre-installed. You will need to purchase these separately.
- The keyboard supports 3-pin and 5-pin MX-style mechanical switches.
- Use the included switch puller to carefully insert switches into the hot-swappable sockets on the PCB. Ensure the pins align correctly to avoid bending.
- Once switches are installed, place your desired keycaps onto the switches.

2. Opcions de connectivitat
The Keychron Q6 Max offers three connection modes: 2.4 GHz wireless, Bluetooth 5.1, and Type-C wired.
- Sense fil de 2.4 GHz: Insert the included 2.4 GHz receiver into a USB-A port on your computer. Ensure the keyboard's mode switch (located on the back or side) is set to 2.4G.
- Bluetooth 5.1: Set the keyboard's mode switch to BT. On your computer or device, search for Bluetooth devices and select 'Keychron Q6 Max'. You can pair up to three devices.
- Cablejat tipus C: Connect the keyboard to your computer using the provided Type-C to Type-C cable (or Type-A to Type-C adapter). Set the keyboard's mode switch to Cable.

- Baixeu el programari VIA des del lloc web oficial de Keychron weblloc.
- Connect your keyboard via the Type-C cable.
- Launch VIA. The software should automatically detect your keyboard.
- Use the interface to remap any key, assign macro commands, create shortcuts, or combine key functions.

Funcionament
1. Canvi de modes de connectivitat
Use the physical switch on the keyboard to toggle between 2.4 GHz, Bluetooth, and wired (Cable) modes. Ensure the switch is set to the desired mode for proper functionality.
2. Key Customization with QMK/VIA
As detailed in the setup section, the VIA software allows for extensive key customization. You can create multiple layers of keymaps, enabling different functions for the same physical keys, which is useful for various applications or operating systems.
3. Retroil·luminació RGB
The Keychron Q6 Max features south-facing RGB backlighting. You can adjust lighting effects, colors, and brightness directly on the keyboard using key combinations (refer to the keyboard's quick start guide for specific key commands) or through the VIA software for more granular control.
