SOFTWARE MODE
When iCUE is running the keyboard operates in software mode and is controlled by iCUE.
Download iCUE from corsair.com/downloads and install on a Windows PC or Apple Mac to connect all of your CORSAIR iCUE-compatible products in a single interface, giving you complete control of everything from lighting to powerful macros.

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 AXON Hyper-Processing Technology, 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 a total number of profiles that can be saved to onboard storage will vary based on complexity.

SWAPPING KEY SWITCHES
The key switches can be removed and replaced with any variety or combination of CHERRY MX RGB mechanical key switches. Other third-party mechanical key switches with a 3-pin design may be compatible but are not guaranteed to work due to physical differences.

1. Push the keycap puller (J) over the keycap, then lift to remove.
2. Position the tips of the key switch puller (I) under the key switch top and bottom tabs, then press in and lift to remove.
3. Align the new key switch’s pins and base with the sockets and opening.
4. Carefully press the key switch in until it clicks into place. If you feel any resistance, remove it and try again. NOTE: Be sure to align the new key switch properly before insertion to prevent bent pins or damage.

PROFILE & LOCK FUNCTIONS

With iCUE you can program Win Lock to not only disable the Windows key, but other key combinations that could interrupt your game, as well as create new profiles and assign unique colors.

HARDWARE LIGHTING

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.

• Hardware lighting, special functions, wireless modes, and control shortcuts cannot be recorded.
