Razer SWTOR Gaming Headset Owner's Manual

Hear the ambient noises of an alien world, the chaotic explosions in battle on
Alderaan, or the iconic buzz of a lightsaber powering up behind you, thanks to the
Dolby® 7.1 surround sound power of the Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ Gaming
Headset by Razer. Get clear, precise three-dimensional audio for the tactical
advantage, preventing backstabs and pinpointing hotspots of action all around
you.

Included gold-backlit faction emblems of the Sith Empire and Galactic Republic

can be fitted into the sides of the headset’s ear cups, and interchanged according

to the faction you choose. Then get a unique look on your headset with the
customizable multi-color lighting system – a dazzling variety of colors that glow on
the underside of the headset like the aura of a Sith or Jedi Master ready for
battle.

6. CONFIGURING YOUR STAR WARS™: THE OLD REPUBLIC™ GAMING HEADSET

Disclaimer: The features listed here require the Razer Synapse 2.0 to be installed. These features are also
subject to change based on the current software version and your Operating System.

PROFILE

A Profile is a convenient way of saving all of the changes you have made on your
device. A single Profile can store all the settings you have made under the Volume
Tab, Equalizer Tab and Lighting Tab.

Profile 1 contains the default settings for your device. Any changes made on the
headset settings will be automatically saved. If you want to rename this profile,
you may do so by typing on the field below Profile Name. There are other options
available in the profile section such as creating a new profile by clicking the

button, deleting the current profile by clicking the button and

duplicating the current profile by clicking the button. You can even set a
profile to work with a specific program or application by using the Link Program

option and clicking the button to search for it.

VOLUME TAB

The Volume Tab is your landing page when you first install Razer Synapse 2.0. This
tab allows you to customize your device’s speaker and microphone settings. The
changes made in this tab are automatically saved to your current profile.

Listed below are the customization options and their descriptions.

Volume Slider - Increases or decreases the sound

level of your headset’s speakers. If
you wish to completely turn off the
sound from your speakers, you may
do so by selecting the Mute option.

Balance Slider - Decreases the sound level of one

headset speaker while maintaining
the sound level of the other. If you
wish to reduce the sound level of the
left speaker, you may do so by
moving the Balance Slider to the
right. This action will not increase
the sound level of the right speaker
as that will be determined by the
Volume Slider.

Dolby® Pro Logic® IIx / Dolby® Headphone - Activates the virtual surround

sound system of your headset.

Mic Slider - Increases or decreases the sound

level of your headset’s microphone.
If you wish to completely turn off
your microphone’s functionality, you
may do so by selecting the Mute
option.

Automatic Gain Control (AGC) - Automatically adjusts all of the

sounds received by the microphone
to an optimum level.

Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) - Prevents the microphone from

receiving feedback from the
headset’s speakers.

Mic Boost - Increases the current sound level of

your microphone.

EQUALIZER TAB

The Equalizer Tab allows you to filter or amplify the sound on your headset’s
speakers. You may choose to manually adjust the sliders to each sound frequency
to achieve the desired effect or choose from the available presets on the
dropdown menu. The changes made in this tab are automatically saved to your
current profile.

LIGHTING TAB

The Lighting Tab allows you to customize the look of your headset by choosing
from over 16 million colors for the backlight or you may select the Spectrum
Cycling option to allow the colors to change indefinitely. This tab also allows you
to adjust the intensity of the backlight by using the Brightness slider.

Selecting the In-game Lighting Effects enables Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ to
control the color and brightness of your headset while you are playing the game.
The changes made in this tab are automatically saved to your current profile.

7. SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE

SAFETY GUIDELINES

In order to achieve maximum safety while using your Star Wars™: The Old
Republic™ Gaming Headset, we suggest that you adopt the following guidelines:

1. Should you have trouble operating the device properly and troubleshooting

does not work, unplug the device and contact the Razer hotline or go to

www.razersupport.com for support. Do not attempt to service or fix the device

yourself at any time.

2. Do not take apart the device (doing so will void your warranty) and do not

attempt to operate it under abnormal current loads.

3. Keep the device away from liquid, humidity or moisture. Operate the device

only within the specific temperature range of 0°C (32°F) to 40°C (104°F). Should
the temperature exceed this range, unplug and switch off the device in order to
let the temperature stabilize within the optimal temperature range.

4. The Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ Gaming Headset isolates external

ambient sounds even at low volumes, resulting in lowered awareness of your
external surroundings. Please remove the Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ Gaming
Headset when engaging in any activity that requires active awareness of your
surroundings.

5. Listening to excessively loud volumes over extended periods of time can

damage your hearing. Furthermore, legislation of certain countries permits a
maximum sound level of 86db to affect your hearing for 8 hours a day. We
therefore recommend that you reduce the volume to a comfortable level when
listening for prolonged periods of time. Please, take good care of your hearing.

MAINTENANCE AND USE

The Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ Gaming Headset requires minimum
maintenance to keep it in optimum condition. Once a month we recommend you
unplug the device from the USB port and clean it using a soft cloth or cotton swab
with a bit of warm water to prevent dirt buildup. Do not use soap or harsh
cleaning agents.
