The Fn key, typically located near the right Alt key, can be combined with other keys to access secondary functions. Specific combinations may vary or be customizable via the driver. Common functions include:

  • Fn + F1-F12: Multimedia controls (e.g., volume, play/pause, track skip).
  • Fn + Arrow Keys: Backlight brightness or effect changes.
  • Fn + Win: Lock/unlock Windows key.

Refer to the quick start guide included in your package for a complete list of default Fn key combinations.

6. Customization

6.1 RGB Lighting Customization

The keyboard features customizable ARGB lighting. Without the driver, you can cycle through preset effects using Fn key combinations. For full control over individual key colors, effects, and brightness, use the proprietary driver software.
