SETTING UP YOUR KEYBOARD
Connect the detachable USB cable (P) to the keyboard USB Type-C port (M) and to an available
USB 3.0 or better Type-A port on your Windows
*www.corsair.com/xbox-support
SOFTWARE MODE
When iCUE is running the keyboard operates in software mode and is
controlled by iCUE.
Install iCUE 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.
Download iCUE from www.corsair.com/downloads.
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.
With iCUE and the new dynamic profile system, 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.
AXON HYPER-PROCESSING TECHNOLOGY
CORSAIR AXON delivers a powerful and responsive keyboard experience with:
> Hyper-fast keystroke detection and processing
> Up to 8,000Hz hyper-polling (adjustable in iCUE device settings)
> Up to 20-layer onboard lighting effects (programmable in iCUE per profile)
FACTORY RESET
To clear the onboard memory, hold the ESC key while plugging in the USB cable (P) to your
system, then release the ESC key after two seconds. The keyboard will then power on normally
and be reset to factory defaults.

TOURNAMENT SWITCH
The Tournament Switch (N) is located on the backside of the keyboard and when turned on puts
the keyboard into a competition compliant mode that:
> Disables custom actions and macros to prevent accidental activation
> Changes backlighting to static single color to reduce distraction
> Offers standard operation without profiles and profile switching
Other keyboard functions including the brightness key (B), Windows lock key (C), volume control
(J, K), and media keys (L) still function as normal.
To enable Tournament Mode:
1. Move the switch to the right position
> Indicator (O) will light up red when enabled
2. Flip up the switch cover to lock into place
With iCUE you can change the color of the RGB LED's while in tournament mode.
