Operating Instructions

The Logitech G810 Orion Spectrum keyboard offers several features to enhance your gaming and typing experience.

Romer-G Mechanical Switches

The keyboard is equipped with Logitech's proprietary Romer-G mechanical switches. These switches are designed for fast actuation and durability, providing a tactile feel with quiet operation. They offer up to 25% faster key actuation compared to standard mechanical switches.

RGB Lighting Customization

The G810 features full RGB backlighting, allowing you to customize the lighting of each individual key from a spectrum of 16.8 million colors. This customization is performed using the Logitech Gaming Software (LGS). You can:

• Select preset lighting effects (e.g., breathing, wave, star effect).
• Create custom lighting profiles for specific games or applications.
• Synchronize lighting with other Logitech G devices.
• Utilize game-driven lighting, where the keyboard's lighting reacts to in-game events (requires LGS and supported games).
