3.1 Wired Connection

  1. Connect the provided USB cable to the USB-C port on the keyboard.
  2. Plug the other end of the USB cable into an available USB port on your computer.
  3. The keyboard should be automatically recognized by your operating system.

3.2 Wireless Connection (Bluetooth)

  1. Ensure the keyboard is charged or connected via USB initially.
  2. Turn on the keyboard's Bluetooth mode (refer to specific key combination in the Operating Instructions).
  3. On your computer or device, enable Bluetooth and search for new devices.
  4. Select "VALKYRIE VK MAG 75" from the list of available devices to pair.

3.3 Driver Installation

For full customization and advanced features, download and install the dedicated driver software from the official VALKYRIE website. This software allows you to configure RGB lighting, key remapping, macro settings, and RT adjustment.

4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Basic Usage

The keyboard functions as a standard QWERTY layout. Special functions are typically accessed via the 'Fn' key combined with other keys (e.g., F1-F12, multimedia keys).

4.2 Backlight Control (RGB)

The VK MAG 75 features a multicolor RGB backlight. Use the dedicated driver software to customize lighting effects, colors, and brightness. Specific key combinations (often Fn + arrow keys or Fn + designated keys) may also cycle through preset lighting modes or adjust brightness directly on the keyboard.

4.3 Dynamic Key Stroke (DKS, MT, TGL, Snap Key)

The keyboard supports advanced dynamic key stroke features. These can be configured via the dedicated driver software to enhance gaming performance:

  • DKS (Dynamic Key Stroke): Allows for multiple actions based on key press depth.
  • MT (Macro Trigger): Assign macros to specific key presses.
  • TGL (Toggle): Toggles a function on/off with a single key press.
  • Snap Key: Instantaneous key actuation at a specific point.

4.4 RT Adjustment Range

The actuation point (RT) of the magnetic switches can be adjusted from 0.01mm to 3.50mm using the dedicated driver software. This allows users to fine-tune the sensitivity of each key to their preference.

5. Maintenance

5.1 Cleaning the Keyboard

  • Disconnect the keyboard from your computer before cleaning.
  • Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild cleaning solution to wipe down the keycaps and chassis.
  • For deeper cleaning, use a keycap puller to remove keycaps and clean underneath with compressed air or a small brush.
  • Avoid spraying liquids directly onto the keyboard.

5.2 Replacing Switches and Keycaps (Hot-Swappable)

The VK MAG 75 supports full key hot-plugging, allowing you to easily replace switches without soldering.

  1. Using a keycap puller, gently remove the desired keycap.
  2. Using a switch puller, carefully grip the switch and pull it straight up to remove it from the PCB.
  3. Align the pins of the new switch with the holes on the PCB and press down firmly until it clicks into place.
  4. Reattach the keycap.

6. Troubleshooting

6.1 Keyboard Not Responding

  • Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the keyboard and the computer.
  • If using Bluetooth, ensure the keyboard is charged, Bluetooth is enabled on both devices, and it is properly paired.
  • Try connecting the keyboard to a different USB port or computer to rule out port issues.
  • Restart your computer.

6.2 Keys Not Registering or Double-Typing

  • Check the RT adjustment settings in the driver software. An extremely low actuation point might cause unintended presses.
  • If a specific key is problematic, try hot-swapping the switch with a known working one to determine if the switch itself is faulty.
  • Ensure no debris is lodged under the keycap or switch.

6.3 Backlight Not Working or Incorrect Colors

  • Verify backlight settings in the dedicated driver software.
  • Ensure the keyboard firmware is up to date.
  • Try resetting the keyboard to factory default settings (refer to driver software or specific key combination).
