GETTING STARTED

Connect the Razer Stream Controller to your computer.

(For macOS systems) Download the Loupedeck Software from loupedeck.com/get- started.

USING THE CONTROLLER

UNDERSTANDING CONTROL ELEMENTS

The Razer Stream Controller is divided into two elements that allow you to seamlessly move between your tools and applications.
USING THE CONTROLLER

Workspaces
A workspace is a toolbox or collection of related functions. On the Razer Stream Controller, you can switch between various workspaces (or toolboxes) efficiently using the Workspace buttons 1-7, allowing you to perform your most needed actions across applications. Learn more about workspaces

General elements
Comprised of the home and customizable workspace buttons, use these buttons to access preferred functions or workspaces across various applications quickly.

Home button. Return or go back to your home workspace.
Workspace buttons 1-7. Fully customizable and remain constant even as you switch between apps. Learn more about the workspace buttons

Workspace elements
Controlled by workspaces, the functions of the tactile analog dials and haptic Switchblade keys change based on the current workspace.

Tactile analog dials. Control variable values (e.g., brightness sliders, volume level, media track scrolling, etc.) with a press function that can reset values, toggle other settings, or do a preferred action. Learn more about dials
Dial information panels. Displays the current function or value of its corresponding analog dial.
Haptic Switchblade keys. Activate different functions (e.g., open tools, presets, control media, launch apps, etc.) within every workspace. You can set multiple pages for each Switchblade key that you can access by swiping left or right on the Switchblade page.
These keys are colored to indicate their function. Learn more about color codes

USING THE DETACHABLE STAND

For an inclined setup, insert the controller into the hooks of the stand and firmly press on each hook until the controller locks in place. To detach, gently unlatch each hook from the controller.
USING THE DETACHABLE STAND

CONFIGURING THE RAZER STREAM CONTROLLER VIA RAZER SYNAPSE

Internet connection is required for installation, updates, and cloud-based features. Registering for a Razer ID account is recommended but optional. All listed features are subject to change based on the current software version, the connected device(s), and supported apps and software.

SYNAPSE TAB

STREAMING TAB
Use the Streaming tab to launch or download the Loupedeck Software and change the controller’s application profile using Razer Synapse.
Configuration

Profile
On the Razer Stream Controller app, a profile is a pre-configured workspace designed to make the controller immediately usable and compatible with the supported application that you’re using.
The Loupedeck Software is required for Razer Synapse to take control of the Razer Stream

Controller’s profiles. It’s also necessary that Dynamic Mode is turned OFF on the Loupedeck Software for the Razer Synapse app to have control over the controller’s profiles.

SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE

SAFETY GUIDELINES

To achieve maximum safety while using the Razer Stream Controller, we suggest that you adopt the following guidelines:

Should you have trouble operating the device properly and troubleshooting does not work, unplug the device and contact the Razer hotline or go to support.razer.com for support.

Don’t take apart the device, and don’t attempt to operate it under abnormal current loads. Doing so will void your warranty.

Don’t use or install the device near water, moisture, solvents, or other wet surfaces; expose it to high temperatures or direct sunlight for an extended period of time, or get moisture or liquid inside the device.

Maintain a minimum distance of at least 15 cm (6 in) between implanted medical devices and the device to reduce the risk of interference.

Keep the device and its components away from liquid, humidity, or moisture. Operate the device only within the specific temperature range of 15°C (59°F) to 35°C (95°F). Should the temperature exceed this range, unplug the device to let the temperature stabilize to an optimal level.

MAINTENANCE AND USE
The Razer Stream Controller requires minimum maintenance to keep it in optimum condition. Once a month, we recommend you clean it using a soft cloth or cotton swab to prevent dirt buildup. Do not use soap or harsh cleaning agents.
