SETTING UP YOUR KEYBOARD

Connect the detachable USB cable (L) to the keyboard USB Type-C port (H) and to an available USB 3.0 or better Type-A port on your Windows® PC, Apple Mac®, or Microsoft Xbox One®.**www.corsair.com/xbox-one-support

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.*

The number of lighting effects layers per profile and number of profiles that can be saved to onboard storage will vary based on complexity.

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 fromwww.corsair.com/downloads.

FACTORY RESETTo clear the onboard memory, hold the ESC key while plugging in the USB cable (L) to your system, then release the ESC key after two seconds. The keyboard will then power on normally and be reset to factory defaults.

TOURNAMENT SWITCH

Located on the backside of the keyboard next to the USB Type-C port (H) is the Tournament Switch (I) which puts the keyboard into a competition compliant mode that:

  • Changes backlighting to static single color to reduce distraction
  • Disables custom actions and macros to prevent accidental activation
  • Offers standard operation without profiles and profile switching

Other keyboard functions including media keys (A), volume control (F, G), brightness (D), and Windows lock key (E) still function as normal.

To enable Tournament Mode:

  1. Move the switch to the right position
    • LED will light up red when enabled
  2. Flip up the switch cover to lock into place

With iCUE you can change the color of the RGB LED’s while in tournament mode.ONBOARD LIGHTING / FUNCTION SHORTCUTS
