OPTIMIZE PERFORMANCE
The Siege M04 can be tweaked and customized according to your games and gaming preference for precise control.
DPI Cycle: Set up to 3 presets for on-the-fly DPI switching in games. Move the slider clockwise
to increase mouse sensitivity and pointer speed.
Sniper DPI: Increase or decrease mouse sensitivity when the sniper button is held down.
Acceleration/Deceleration: Move the sliders clockwise to increase acceleration or
deceleration of your mouse speed during mouse movements. Tune the mouse to pick up speed or slow down during movement with these 2 options. Otherwise, disable both for 1:1 mouse
movement.
Polling Rate: Set the maximum distance between mouse sensor and surface where tracking
is allowed. A lower lift-off distance (LOD) is useful in games because a high LOD means the sensor continues to track even when the mouse is lifted over a tracking surface, resulting in uncontrolled motion.
Lift-Off Distance: Set the maximum distance between mouse sensor and surface where
tracking is allowed. A lower lift-off distance (LOD) is useful in games because a high LOD means the sensor continues to track even when the mouse is lifted over a tracking surface, resulting in
uncontrolled motion.
Angle Snapping: Enhance your aim with smoother movements – helps FPS players to spin
around without ending up looking at the sky and drawing straight lines in art. You can also disable it for zero prediction.
