4.2 Customizable Keystroke Travel (Rapid Trigger)

The magnetic switches allow for precise adjustment of keystroke actuation and reset points. This feature, known as Rapid Trigger, enables a key to be reset by gently lifting it, allowing for rapid re-triggering without needing to fully release the key.

• Adjustment Range: Keystroke travel can be customized from 0.02mm to 3.6mm, with 0.02mm accuracy.
• Configuration: Use the proprietary driver software to set individual key actuation and reset points.

4.3 Dynamic Key Travel (DKS)

The DKS function allows you to assign up to four different functions to a single key based on its travel distance. This is particularly useful for gaming, enabling actions like walking with a light press and running with a deeper press on the same key.

• Configuration: Set up DKS profiles within the proprietary driver software.
• Emergency Stop: Configure a specific key to act as an "emergency stop" by assigning different actions to shallow and deep presses.

The keyboard features customizable RGB backlighting with 16.8 million colors and multiple preset lighting effects.

• Switching Effects: Use the driver software to cycle through preset lighting patterns or create custom effects.
• Brightness/Speed: Adjust brightness and animation speed via the software.

4.5 Polling Rate

The MU68PRO supports an 8000 Hz polling rate, which is significantly faster than the standard 1000 Hz. This increases the amount of data sent per second by up to 8 times, resulting in quicker response times.

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 frame.
• For dust and debris between keys, use compressed air.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

5.2 Hot-Swappable Switches and Keycaps

The IROK MU68PRO features hot-swappable magnetic switches, allowing for easy replacement without soldering. Keycaps can also be replaced.

• Switch Replacement: Gently pull the switch straight up using a switch puller tool (not included). Align the new magnetic switch carefully and press it firmly into place.
• Keycap Replacement: Use a keycap puller tool (not included) to remove keycaps. Press new keycaps firmly onto the switch stems.
