FAQs

How does the tri-mode connectivity work?

The keyboard can connect via USB for a wired, low-latency connection, or via Bluetooth for wireless convenience. You can switch between these modes seamlessly through the keyboard's function keys or the Armoury Crate software.

Can I use any mechanical switches with this keyboard?

Does the keyboard support N-key rollover and anti-ghosting?

Troubleshooting

Keyboard not detected in wired mode

Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the keyboard and the computer. Try a different USB port or a different USB cable.

Bluetooth connection is unstable or drops
