MOUSE TAB

The Mouse tab is the main tab for your Razer Cobra Pro. From here, you can change your device's settings, such as button assignment, stored profiles, DPI sensitivity, and lighting. Changes under this tab are automatically saved to your system and cloud storage.

Customize

The Customize subtab is for modifying your mouse's button assignments.

[Screenshot of the Razer Synapse Customize tab showing button assignments for the Razer Cobra Pro]

Profile

A Profile is a data storage for keeping all your Razer peripheral's settings. By default, the profile name is based on your system's name. To add, import, rename, duplicate, export, reset, or delete a profile, press the Miscellaneous button (⋯).

Standard / Hypershift

Hypershift mode is a secondary set of button assignments activated when the Hypershift key is held down. By default, the Hypershift key is assigned to the fn key of your Razer Synapse-supported keyboard. However, you can also set any mouse button to activate Hypershift mode.

HyperSpeed Multi-Device Pairing

Use this feature to pair an additional HyperSpeed-compatible device with the Razer HyperSpeed Wireless Dongle of your Razer Cobra Pro. As its wireless dongle can support a keyboard and mouse simultaneously, you can remove the usage of separate dongles for each peripheral.

ℹ️ To use this feature, your Razer Cobra Pro must be connected via Razer HyperSpeed Wireless (2.4 GHz) mode. Each peripheral can only connect to one dongle at a time.

Stored Profiles

Your Razer Cobra Pro can store up to 5 profiles from the Razer Synapse app, allowing you to use these profiles even on systems without the app installed.

[Screenshot showing the On-Board Memory section in Razer Synapse, with slots for profiles]

Button Assignment Functions:

PERFORMANCE TAB

The Performance subtab allows you to modify the sensitivity, acceleration, and polling rate.

[Screenshot of the Razer Synapse Performance tab]

Sensitivity

Sensitivity refers to the distance the cursor will travel based on how far the mouse moves. The higher the DPI, the farther the cursor will travel, given the same mouse movement distance.

Sensitivity Stages

A sensitivity stage is a preset sensitivity value. When enabled, you can create up to 5 different sensitivity stages, which you can cycle through using the DPI stage up and down buttons.

Enable X-Y Sensitivity

By default, the X-axis (horizontal) and Y-axis (vertical) use the same sensitivity values. However, you may set different sensitivity values for each axis by selecting the Enable X-Y option.

Polling Rate

The higher the polling rate, the more often the computer receives information about the status of your mouse, effectively reducing input latency and improving your mouse pointer's reaction time. You can switch between 125Hz, 500Hz, and 1000Hz by selecting your desired polling rate from the options provided.

Mouse Properties

Access the Windows Mouse Properties, where you can modify operating system settings that directly affect your mouse.

LIGHTING TAB

Linked Games

The Linked Games subtab allows you to add games, view devices linked to games, or search for added games. You can also sort games based on alphabetical order, last played, or most played. Added games will still be listed here, even if they are not linked to a Razer device.

8. SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE

SAFETY GUIDELINES

To achieve maximum safety while using your Razer Cobra Pro, we suggest that you adopt the following guidelines:

COMFORT

Research has shown that long periods of repetitive motion, improper positioning of your computer peripherals, incorrect body position, and poor habits may be associated with physical discomfort and injury to nerves, tendons, and muscles. Below are some guidelines to avoid injury and ensure optimum comfort while using your Razer Cobra Pro.

If you experience any physical discomfort while using your mouse, such as pain, numbness, or tingling in your hands, wrists, elbows, shoulders, neck, or back, please consult a qualified medical doctor immediately.

MAINTENANCE AND USE

The Razer Cobra Pro requires minimum maintenance to keep it in optimum condition. Once a month, we recommend you unplug the device from the computer and clean it using a soft cloth or cotton swab to prevent dirt buildup. Don't use soap or harsh cleaning agents.

To get the ultimate experience in movement and control, we highly recommend a premium mouse mat from Razer. Some surfaces will cause undue wear on the feet requiring constant care and eventual replacement.

Do note that the Razer Cobra Pro's sensor is 'tuned' or optimized specially for the Razer mouse mats. This means that the sensor has been tested extensively to confirm that the Razer Cobra Pro reads and tracks best on Razer mouse mats.

BATTERY WARNING ⚠️

The Razer Cobra Pro contains a Li-ion rechargeable battery. In general, the life expectancy of such batteries is dependent upon usage. If you suspect that the Li-ion rechargeable battery inside the Razer Cobra Pro may be drained (has a low charge), try charging it.

Caution: Don't open, mutilate, or expose to conducting materials (metal), moisture, liquid, fire, or heat. Doing so may cause batteries to leak or explode, resulting in personal injury. Battery life varies with usage.
