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.

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 total number of profiles that can be saved to onboard storage will vary based on complexity.

The keyboard features many onboard functions to change profiles, adjust backlighting, lock the windows key, and control media playback, and adjust volume with convenient hotkeys.

Keyboard lighting effects can be controlled via the onboard shortcuts below when iCUE is not running or the keyboard is connected to a device that does not support iCUE.

Macros can be recorded at any time via the below process. In hardware mode your macros are recorded to onboard storage and in software mode your macros are recorded to the current iCUE profile.
