SOFTWARE MODE

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

.

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 profiles and settings saved to the 

onboard storage. 

 

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.*

AXON HYPER-PROCESSING TECHNOLOGY

FUNCTION HOTKEYS

Macros can be recorded at any time via the below process. In hardware mode your macros are 

recorded to onboard storage and in software mode your macros are recorded to the current  

iCUE profile.

MACRO RECORDING

Keyboard lighting effects can be controlled via the onboard shortcuts below when iCUE is not 

running or the keyboard is connected to a device that does not support iCUE.

ONBOARD LIGHTING

With iCUE you can program vivid and 

dynamic custom multi-layered lighting 

effects, then save them to onboard storage.

CORSAIR AXON delivers a powerful and responsive keyboard experience with:

* The number of lighting effects layers per profile and total number of profiles that can be saved 

to onboard storage will vary based on complexity.
