Onboard profiles
The G502 has three preconfigured profiles, one each for high sensitivity gaming, low sensitivity gaming, and standard mouse usage Use Button 9 (see mouse drawing) to rotate through these default profiles When you change profiles, the DPI indicator lights will change color to blue for three seconds and will indicate the new mode as shown here:
DPI indicators
DPI values are shown using the three LEDs indicated in the mouse drawing The image below shows which DPI value is being indicated by the LED panel.
Hyperfast Scroll Wheel
The G502 features Logitech’s exclusive dual-mode hyperfast scroll wheel Click the button right below the wheel (Button G12) to switch between the two modes
Tips
Weight and balance tuning is very much an exercise in personal preference Generally speaking, more weight makes it easier to control high DPI settings, while less weight makes low-DPI gaming less fatiguing Centering weights along an imaginary line between your thumb and right-side grip finger(s) will help maintain optimal front-to-back balance.
The effects of changing weights may not be immediately apparent After changing the position or number of weights, give yourself some time to experience the difference before changing them again.
Try the default profile settings in practice games before changing these settings.
Advanced gamers can customize each game according to their specific button configuration and sensitivity switching needs The Logitech Gaming Software stores this information and applies it automatically when the game is detected.
If the mouse doesn’t work
- Unplug and re-plug the USB cable to ensure a good connection
- Try the mouse USB cable in another USB port on the computer
- Use only a powered USB port
- Try rebooting the computer
- If possible, test the mouse on another computer

Why are buttons from number 9 onwards not recognized when creating Lua macros for the Logitech G502 HERO?
The Logitech G502 HERO features 11 programmable buttons. In the context of Lua scripting within Logitech G HUB or Logitech Gaming Software, buttons are typically indexed by their physical button number. While the manual identifies 11 programmable buttons, Lua scripting often requires specific event handling for buttons beyond the standard mouse button range (1-8).
To work around this issue, try the following steps:
If the software continues to fail to recognize button 9 (Profile Select) or buttons 10/11 (Wheel Tilt) within the script, it is likely a limitation of the scripting API's direct mouse event listener, and the keyboard assignment workaround is the most reliable solution.
