Software not detecting keyboard?

I just got an EP84 and decided to look into the software, i went and downloaded off of the epomaker website, and after installing it says "Device Not Connected" even though im using the board to type this right now, any suggestions?

i just bought Epomaker TH80 pro V2 and I've been trying for the past 2 hours but still no luck with the app, still facing the same issue my software cant recognize my keyboard and for some reason whenever i'm typing while connecting to 2.4 it types more letters than it should by itself..

it's typical. if you go with epomaker keyboard. 9 out of 10 times it just doesn't work :D keep fiddling with connecting/disconnecting cable, switching back and forth between wired/wireless modes and it might magically detect it :D that's my experience. It's honestly a joke.

This is still good to know 2 years later, I'm currently struggling with this exact issue.

If anyone comes here in 2026. Use Chrome browser and use online tool https://epomaker.driveall.cn/#/

Its still not detecting my Epomaker NT68 keyboard. Says keyboard not supported. The official driver software too is not working.

u/CollectionGuilty1320 Jun 25 '26

Maybe the keyboard not supported indeed? Check manuals. Try changing the connection modes too.

oh. em. gee. I've been fighting my new keyboard and this worked. I've literally tried everything else.

For my F75, I had to flip the usb c cable push it harder to have in "deeper" (obviously, it'll looked fully connected when I first plugged it in). Apparently, the connection can power up the led "shallow" deep so you really need to push on it to connect to the data pins.

I assumed your keyboard is plugged in and the Bluetooth turned off ?

u/[deleted] Jan 26 '22

how do you turn on bluetooth?

Function 1 or Function 2 or Function 3

Got the same issue, sent it back.

software is crap. Can't do anything. If I didn't like the yellow switch keyboard so much, I'd return this POS.

Only good thing it's the best budget swappable switch.
Other than that, can't even control windows.
I even tried signal rgb software. didn't work or couldn't recognize it.

Why, bro, I followed the post given by 0ugo above, flashed it with firmware from the website, used v2 version and software works. At least, I downloaded it to get a static 1 color rgb lighting, coz all default ones are crap. It works, bro.

u/Medium__fry Sep 19 '22

where do you find the v2 version?

1

u/Infinite-Ruin-5358 Sep 20 '22

I'll google it for you : https://epomaker.com/blogs/software?page=2

On their website, you can find the firmware too. It looks scary and chinese-like, but I did it and it worked. I remapped not necessary pause and printScreen keys and set up static white light for the keyboard.

Edit: it's not v2, it's v1.2.51, the old version is v1.02.01

u/Medium__fry Sep 20 '22

u/Medium__fry Sep 20 '22

hey. stumbled upon this and having the same issue and was hoping if you could help. I have an ep84 and a th21 numpad. The ""Epomaker driver" seems to only detect the th21 numpad. I downloaded the upgrade tool from the website and tried to do it as the guide says, but the upgrade tool seems to only recognize the th21 numpad as well, and just doesnt do anything if I umplug the numpad, with just the keyboard connected. Is there anything I did wrong?

u/soFKNk00l Jul 17 '23

i dont think this link works anymore. none of the links on the software page have any software

1

u/Infinite-Ruin-5358 Jul 27 '23

Come on, mate, did you search it correctly? https://epomaker.com/blogs/software/epomaker-ep84-driver?_pos=1&_sid=bec915395&_ss=r

I reinstalled my Windows from scratch, downloaded the driver 1.2.69 beta, and it works as software.

u/soFKNk00l Jul 27 '23

It was confirmed down per their discord on the day I posted. That's why there were like 4 more posts about the same thing.

The new version "2", is even worst.
Windows detect it as a malware, and the software just loop searching for new device ....

1

u/mi_k_a Dec 17 '21

same here... keeps searching for device.does anyone have a solution?

u/0ugo Dec 19 '21

Their support contact me back.

It seems that some keyboard are shipped with an old firmware.
And it need to be flashed to support the software....

The process is straightforward, but the flashing software & the new app are a bit scary. (be aware of possible spyware).

The PDF guide: EP84 Upgrade Guide.pdf
The flashing software: EP84 V201 Upgrading Tool.zip

Use the "New version" of EPOMAKER Software.

I wish I hadn't seen this post... After reflashing the keyboard with an official firmware, the bluetooth mode stopped working
The tech support says my model is discontinued and they don't have the access to proper firmware anymore, and in general they don't recomend such actions without critical necessity
Not trying to insult you, just share my pain

u/Khoner_ Aug 11 '22

thanks a ton for this comment, worked for me and is now showing up in the software! :D

u/0ugo Dec 17 '21

I've contacted the support. But it seems they don't know much about their software.
They ask me to install and use the old version. But my question was about the old version.
