The keyboard features two operating modes:

1. 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.
2. Software (S/W) Mode – When iCUE is running on a PC or Mac.
   • 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 together in a single interface, giving you complete control of everything from lighting to powerful macros.
