Does the LED light automatically turn on and off with the computer?

No you have to manually turn it on and off which can be a hassel because you'll have to remember to turn it off when you turn off the computer

My usb ports provide power even when the computer is off, so I have to hit the button on the keyboard to turn off the lights manually.

The lights turn off when you shut your computer off completely. Putting your pc on sleep does not turn off the lights.

Yes. It has it's own button for changing the color of the light or turning it off altogether.

Sorry for the delayed response. No...the unit I purchased does not. I'm using it to turn lights on and off...so it wasn't something I looked for.

No, it lights up during programming or temperature setting changes, then turns off.

Hi Toby, no, the switch is either on or off. If you slowly press the button, it latches before the LED comes on.

No it does not.This is another feature besides the indicating lights that Dell skimped on.I have another laptop (HP) that has the indicating lights and a number keypad.

The key lights do shut off automatically. Press any key and the light turns on.

The backlight stays on until you turn off the computer or you turn it off with the keyboard button. However, the lights are customisable with the included software, so all you would have to do is use a script to turn it off after some time. But it's probably just easier to push the button.

Yes it does have LED that shows when its powered up, and flashes it when there is activity.

Yes it does...I have mine plugged into the same surge my computer is on and just flip the on/off toggle when I need to use it.

Yes the power light is always on as there is no shutoff switch as it is externally powered and does not use USB port for power.

negative, it does not.... I actually keep this laptop shut, hooked up to a large tv and use a backlit keyboard, almost like it is a desktop.

Yes it does. The bigger white bar that you see on the switch is basically a big button. You can press it to manually turn the light on or off.

Nope. only the sensitivity does. if you do not want the led too bright, try fixing it facing up rather than shining on your floor board.

Not that I know of but the light stays on, unless you just want to unplug the usb?

Yes, there is an easy-to-find button on the face of the keyboard. I leave mine off when not in use, and when I approach my computer I do not need additional light in order to locate the 'on' button.
