3. Overview
3.1 Profile Keys
Game profiles can be activated with the keys P1 to P4. Game profiles contain all the settings of the gaming
software. These include reassignments of keys, illumination settings, the chosen behavior of the windows key
as well as the preferred polling rate and the key response time. Macros are created independently of the game
profiles, but each macro can be used for any of these profiles.
The profile LED above the number block indicates which game profile is active. When profile P1 is active, the
profile LED is lit in white. P2 is blue. P3 is green. P4 is red. After the gaming software has been installed, the game
profile which has been activated will be briefly indicated in the bot tom right corner of the screen when switching
profiles via the profile keys.
Initially, all the game profiles have the same default keyboard settings. The profiles can then be customized as
desired using the gaming software. For more information about setting and managing the profiles see the section
“Game Profiles”.

3.2 Illumination Keys
The preset lighting effects of the keyboard can be activated with keys L1 to L4.
Press L1 once to start the “wave“ lighting effect. Press L1 again to start the “color marquee“ effect. Another
press of the key returns back to the “wave“ effect.
L2 starts the “color change“ effect.
Pressing L3 starts the “permanent“ lighting effect. Each additional keystroke changes the color of this lighting
effect. The first color is red, followed by green, blue, yellow, pink, turquois, white and then returning to red.
The colors can also be changed using the gaming software.
Press L4 to start the “pulsating RGB cycle“ effect.
