Operating Instructions

AIMO RGB Lighting

The Magma Mini features 5-zone AIMO RGB lighting. This intelligent lighting system reacts to your gameplay and can be synchronized with other AIMO-enabled ROCCAT devices. Customize lighting effects and colors through the ROCCAT Swarm software.

Easy-Shift[+]™ Functionality

Easy-Shift[+]™ technology allows you to assign a secondary function to many keys on the keyboard. By default, holding down the Caps Lock key activates the Easy-Shift[+]™ layer. This effectively doubles the number of programmable functions available to you.

• To program Easy-Shift[+]™ functions, open the ROCCAT Swarm software.
• Select the key you wish to program and assign its primary and secondary (Easy-Shift[+]™) functions.
• Save your profile to apply the changes.

Anti-Ghosting

The ROCCAT Magma Mini features advanced anti-ghosting with 20-key rollover (20KRO). This ensures that up to 20 keys pressed simultaneously will register accurately, preventing missed inputs during intense gaming sessions.

Maintenance

Cleaning

To clean your keyboard, disconnect it from your computer. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the surface. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, ensuring no liquid enters the key switches or internal components. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Spill Resistance

The Magma Mini boasts an IP33 rating for water and dust resistance. While it offers protection against accidental spills, it is not fully waterproof. In case of a spill, immediately disconnect the keyboard from your computer, wipe away any liquid, and allow it to air dry completely before reconnecting.
