Setup
Connecting Hardware
KeyMander 2 3Play requires slightly different connection steps depending
upon which device is being connected. The diagram below shows general
connections, but please follow the instructions for each device type.
PC Setup
To connect the KeyMander 2 3Play to PC, follow the steps below.
1. Download and install KeyMander 2 App and create a user account to
manage your game profiles. For more information, see Using the K2 App.
Note: If you are using an Android phone / tablet, please make sure to en-
able the GPS function before you begin to use this app. If you are
using iPhone / iPad with iOS version 13 or above, please make sure
to enable the Bluetooth Permission for this app.
2. Begin with the PC powered off, then connect your keyboard to the
Keyboard port.
14
Chapter 2. Setup
Note: If you are using a wireless keyboard / mouse set, plug the receiver
into the Keyboard Port.
3. Connect your mouse to the Mouse Port.
4. Connect the USB connection Port 1, 2, or 3 to a USB port on the PC.
Note: It is recommended to use Port 1 for PC and Port 2/3 for games
consoles. If you are only connecting game consoles use Port 1 for
the first console.
5. If Port 1 is already used for connection of another PC or other game
console, connect this PC to Port 2 or 3 as explained in step 4.
6. If Port 1 and Port 2 are already used, connect your PC to Port 3 using a
micro USB cable (not supplied). After connecting the micro USB to Port
3, connect the USB end as explained in Step 4.
7. Connect the KeyMander 2 3Play to a 5V/2A DC power supply if
necessary. If your KeyMander 2 LED is flashing red or you receive a low
voltage notification on the K2 App, you need to connect an additional
5V/2A USB power supply (not included).
Note: Some RGB keyboards and nearly all keyboards with built-in USB
ports or headphone jacks require more power than KeyMander 2
3Play can provide, so an external USB power supply (minimum 2
amps) is required.
8. Turn on the PC, wait for it to boot and recognize the KeyMander 2 3Play
is connected. The KeyMander 2 3Play’s LED will be glowing white.
9. After the PC has booted, confirm the mouse and keyboard are working,
then press your mouse DPI button to change to your preferred DPI setting
for use with the PC. If your PC screen is set to a lower resolution setting,
you may find a lower setting of 800-2000 DPI on your mouse works best
when your KeyMander 3Play is focused on your PC. If you have a large
or high-resolution monitor, you may find the same DPI setting you use
with your game console, which our recommendation is 3500-4000 DPI or
higher also works fine when switching focus to PC. If you need to change
your mouse’s pre-programmed DPI settings, you will first need to connect
your mouse directly to the PC so the driver can see your mouse, make
your changes and save them to the mouse, then unplug from the PC and
reconnect the mouse to the KeyMander 2 3Play when done
10. Press the Bluetooth Pairing Button to put KeyMander 2 3Play into pairing
mode, then press the Connect button on the Device tab of the K2 App on

12. After completing the Port Configuration, press the PC icon on the Device
tab to switch operating modes to the PC if it is not already in PC mode.
13. The default Mouse DPI setting in the K2 App is 4000 and you need to set
the mouse to match or choose an alternate setting. On the Device tab,
scroll down and tap Mouse DPI (Image 7) then on the Mouse Settings
page (Image 8) enter the DPI setting of your mouse. While our
recommended settings of 3500-4000 DPI work fine for most games, we
do encourage you to test other DPI settings. You may find that higher
settings like 8000 DPI or more may work better for you with some games,
depending upon things like aim-assist built, etc.

Nintendo Switch Setup
To connect the KeyMander 2 3Play to a Nintendo Switch, follow the steps
below.
1. Download and install KeyMander 2 App and create a user account to
manage your game profiles. For more information, see Using the K2 App.
Note: If you are using an Android phone / tablet, please make sure to en-
able the GPS function before you begin to use this app. If you are
using iPhone / iPad with iOS version 13 or above, please make sure
to enable the Bluetooth Permission for this app.
2. Begin with the Nintendo Switch powered off and placed into the Switch
dock, making sure the dock is connected to power and to your monitor. It
is not necessary to connect a controller to use KeyMander 2 3Play with
the Nintendo Swtich, but if you wish to use the Nintendo Pro Controller
connect it now to the Gamepad port with the micro USB cable provided
in the box with the KeyMander 2 3Play.
3. Connect your keyboard to the Keyboard port.
Note: If you are using a wireless keyboard / mouse set, plug the receiver
into the Keyboard Port.
4. Connect your mouse to the Mouse Port.
5. Connect the USB Type-A Connection Port 1, 2, or 3 to a USB port on the
back of the console.
Note: If you are using a PC and game console(s), it is recommended to
use Port 1 for PC and Port 2/3 for games consoles. If you are only
connecting game consoles use Port 1 for the first console.
6. If Port 1 is already used for connection of a PC or other game console,
connect your Nintendo Switch to Port 2 or 3 as explained in step 5.
7. If Port 1 and Port 2 are already used, connect your Nintendo Switch to
Port 3 using a micro USB cable (not supplied). After connecting the
micro USB to Port 3, connect the USB end as explained in Step 5.
8. Connect the KeyMander 2 3Play to a 5V/2A DC power supply if
necessary. If your KeyMander 2 LED is flashing red or you receive a low
voltage notification on the K2 App, you need to connect an additional
5V/2A USB power supply (not included).

Note: Some RGB keyboards and nearly all keyboards with built-in USB
ports or headphone jacks require more power than KeyMander 2
3Play can provide, so an external USB power supply (minimum 2
amps) is required.
9. Turn on the Nintendo Switch using the power button on the top of the
Switch. The KeyMander 2 3Play’s LED will be glowing blue indicating
the default PS4 profile is loaded. NOTE: you must keep the JoyCons
connected to the Nintendo Switch or it will not function with the
KeyMander 2 3Play
10. Press the Bluetooth Pairing Button to put KeyMander 2 3Play into pairing
mode, then press the Connect button on the Device tab of the K2 App on
your mobile device (Image 1). Next, select GES1337P under DEVICES

12. After completing the Port Configuration, press the Nintendo Switch icon
on the Device tab to switch operating modes to the Nintendo Switch.
13. The default Mouse DPI setting in the K2 App is 4000 and you need to set
the mouse to match or choose an alternate setting. On the Device tab,
scroll down and tap Mouse DPI (Image 7) then on the Mouse Settings
page (Image 8) enter the DPI setting of your mouse. While our
recommended settings of 3500-4000 DPI work fine for most games, we
do encourage you to test other DPI settings. You may find that higher
settings like 8000 DPI or more may work better for you with some games,
depending upon things like aim-assist built, etc.
