Yes. This touchpad has mechanical switch above the touch surface, but
below the keyboard. After pressing it once touchpad led changes color
to amber, meaning that touchpad is disabled. After pressing second
time, led changes color to normal (blue), indicating touchpad working.
If you have any further questions, just let me know.
