3. Operating the Keyboard

3.1 Basic Functions

The ATK Edge 60/63 HE keyboard functions as a standard QWERTY keyboard. Due to its compact layout, some functions are accessed via key combinations.

• Function Layer: Access secondary functions (e.g., F-keys, media controls) by holding down the Fn key and pressing the corresponding key. Refer to the keycap legends for specific functions.

3.2 Adjustable Actuation (Rapid Trigger)

The keyboard features adjustable actuation, also known as Rapid Trigger (RT), allowing you to customize the keypress sensitivity. The actuation range is from 0.001 mm to 3.3 mm, adjustable in 0.001 mm increments.

• Adjustment: Use the dedicated ATK software (available for download from the official ATK website) to fine-tune the actuation point for each key.
• Benefits: Lower actuation points provide faster response times for gaming, while higher points can reduce accidental key presses.
