Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using your keyboard, connect it directly to a USB 3.0 or higher port on your PC to ensure stable performance for the 8000Hz polling rate. Download the latest driver or use the web-based configuration tool to calibrate your actuation points and customize RGB settings. For care, use a soft, lint-free cloth to dust the surface. Since this is a hot-swappable board, ensure you only use compatible N-pole downward magnetic switches if you decide to customize your typing feel. Avoid spilling liquids on the board, as the magnetic sensors are sensitive to internal debris.
