CORSAIR GAMING RGB KEYBOARD SOFTWARE USER MANUAL
You can create custom groups of keys, which can
be assigned distinct lighting effects� The Corsair
software includes pre-defined groups for some
common groups of keys, including groups for the
WASD keys, the arrow keys, and all keys�
Lighting groups are defined on a per-profile basis,
and when you create a group, it is created in all
the modes of the profile� Lighting assignments for
groups are made on a per-mode basis�
For example, if you have a profile with two modes,
Medic and Tank, and you create a lighting group in
the Medic mode, it will also be created in the Tank
mode� However, if you define a solid green lighting
for the group in the Medic mode, the green lighting
will not automatically apply to the Tank mode,
leaving you free to define a different lighting for that
group while in Tank mode�
Note: A lighting group may have only one lighting
effect applied to it, though keys may belong to
multiple groups�
