SOFTWARE MODE
HARDWARE LIGHTING
When iCUE is running the keyboard operates in software mode and is controlled by iCUE.
Install iCUE on a Windows PC or Apple Mac to connect all of your CORSAIR iCUE
compatible products together in a single interface, giving you complete control of
everything from lighting to powerful macros. Download iCUE from
www.corsair.com/downloads.
When playing iCUE-integrated games your RGB lighting dynamically reacts to in-game actions and
events in real-time. Learn more at www.corsair.com/icue.
Basic hardware lighting effects can be controlled via the below shortcuts when iCUE is not running or the
keyboard is connected to a device that does not support iCUE.
*Functions supported on select effects.
HARDWARE MODE
When iCUE is not running or the keyboard is connected to a device that does not support iCUE, the keyboard
operates in hardware mode which uses lighting settings and recorded macros saved onboard.
With iCUE and the new dynamic profile system, you can create as many custom profiles
as can fit onto the 8MB of onboard storage. Each profile can store complex backlighting
effects (up to 20 layers), actions & macros, and settings.*
*The number of lighting effects layers per profile and number of profiles that can be saved to onboard storage
will vary based on complexity.
