The contact area of the mouse is on the underside, in the middle of the lower three mouse feet. As soon as the SKILLER SGM3 begins the charging, the SKILLER logo on the top of the mouse will start to pulsate in red. When the battery is 90 % charged, the SKILLER logo will no longer pulsate and the illumination will change to green.

When the battery is 90 % charged, the SKILLER logo will no longer pulsate and the illumination  will change to green. The mouse can also be used while being charged through the connected USB cable.

The DPI levels of the SKILLER SGM3 can be increased or decreased in six steps using the buttons with the DPI+ and DPI- functions. In the illustrated mouse in the software, these buttons are indicated with the numbers 6 and 7. In the menu “DPI Setting”, the six preset levels can be individually modified. In the DPI menu, the currently selected DPI level is indicated when the circle under the DPI value is colored blue. To increase the DPI value, move the slide bar upward. To decrease the value, move the slide bar downward. Alternatively, you can double-click in the box beneath the respective slide bar, and directly enter the desired value from 600 to 6,000. Each of the colored boxes underneath the six DPI levels shows the color of the illuminated SKILLER logo when the corresponding DPI level has been selected. To change a color, click on the respective box and then choose one of eight readily shown colors. For a fully customized color, select the menu “Custom Color” and then move the slide bar along the color spectrum until the desired color has been reached

Battery

In this part of the software, the approximate battery charge of the SKILLER SGM3 is displayed in three levels.
The illustrated battery is displayed as either full, half full or empty to indicate the current status of the battery.

 Macro Manager

With the Macro Manager, you can record, edit and delete macros. After clicking “New”, the software creates a new default macro name within the “Select Macro” field. Double-click the macro to rename it. Before recording a macro, settings can be made for delays between keystrokes as well as repetitions of the macro (loops) in the “Options” field. If “Record Delay“ is selected, then the delay between each keystroke will also be entered within the macro. The delays appear as times in milliseconds in the field “Keystroke Sequence“. Also in the field “Options”, the number of loops can be set. To do this, select “Number of Loops” and underneath, enter the desired number of loops. A maximum of 255 loops are possible. For example, if a macro has the keystroke sequence “F6 F2 478“ with three loops, then the macro will contain the following result: “F6 F2 478 F6 F2 478 F6 F2 478”.

After clicking on “Start REC” in the “Options” field, every succeeding keystroke will be recorded and entered in the field “Keystroke Sequence”. You finish the recording by clicking on “Recording”. After it has been recorded, a macro can then be manually altered. After being selected with a click of the right mouse button, any recorded keystroke can be deleted. Also with a right- click, keyboard keys and delays can be added. Initially, manually added delays have a default time of one millisecond. With a double click on the delay, this time can be altered. Up to 100 macros can be stored within the Macro Manager. The maximum number of keystrokes is 34 including delays. Please note that pressing and releasing a key represents two commands.
