Title: hhkb bt, micro usb cable
Post by: tmpdev101 on Mon, 05 February 2018, 14:07:29

I recently purchased a HHKB bt (bluetooth) keyboard.  I'm a bit confused about the Micro USB Cable output.  I expected when connected the keyboard would function as normal without a bluetooth connection?  Is this assumption wrong and if so what is its purpose?

It is just for power supply from USB port.
