manually using the Load button. The keyboard image shows the action assigned to each key

key (white outline). Use the Layer toggle-switch to navigate between the top layer and the Fn layer.
Remapping: Designate an active key, then use the Edge to input the new key action, or select a
Special Action from the menu at right. Remapped keys are displayed in blue font.
Macros: Designate an active key, then click the macro text box and type your macro (edit with the
Backspace and Clear buttons). Up to 3 macros can be assigned to each trigger key by selecting
one of the 3 radio buttons and then choosing one of the 6 modifier keys as a "co-trigger". Use the

sliders to set a custom playback speed (use "G" for the global speed) or to program the macro to

playback a fixed number of times (use "R" to repeat when held). Macro trigger keys are displayed
with a blue outline in the diagram. A maximum of 24 macros can be assigned to each layout.
Settings and Lighting: Use the App to adjust basic keyboard settings and set the custom lighting
mode (Note: Settings and Lighting are not layout-specific).
Implementing Changes: The App does not dynamically update the keyboard or reflect onboard
changes since launch. To implement your changes, first click Save or Save As. Then use the
Refresh onboard shortcut ( + Layout), or close the App and then close the v-Drive ( + F8).
