How to use

Connect the mouse to an available USB Type-A port on your PC. Use the included software to create or edit profiles, assign macros to any of the 11 programmable buttons and configure sensor settings such as DPI steps, lift-off height and USB report rate. Adjust thumb rest, palm rest, pinkie rest and the weight system physically to match your preferred grip and playstyle. Use the dedicated DPI and precision-aim controls to switch sensitivity levels during gameplay.

Recommendations

For stable aiming in FPS titles, use a lower DPI profile with precision-aim enabled. For fast movement or MMO play, increase DPI and use weight reduction for quicker swipes. Save separate profiles for different games and check switch and sensor settings in software after any firmware updates.
