The Profile Manager

 

The Control Software - The Profile Manager

Incorporated with the mouse is an application that will allow you to some extent program the mouse. The software is fairly easy to understand and use and not at all a Pandora's box.

The best thing about the software is that you can record macros. Macros are a series of pre-defined actions. In games this can give you a big advantage.

The first screen allows you to program the buttons with a dedicated function. The standard stuff really, more important is the next screenshot.

DPI sensitivity can be switched between three levels with the DPI switch button, and then assigned to profiles, five of them. What I like is that each preset can be configured to your preference as well. You can take the DPI level up to a whopping 5040 dots per inch per axis.

Macros - Why would you need a macro? Say you need to load a certain weapon and equip it with a silencer, usually you have to click your keyboard keys 3, maybe even 5 times before that weapon is armed and activated. With the software you can record such actions. And with the press of a button within milliseconds that weapon is now loaded. The sky is the limit here. You can save multiple (five) macros so you can use specific key-combos for each profile. Once set up, the software works well; and the only thing you need the software for is making macros for games.

There is also a color setting tab that allows you to configure the LED colors on several locations. So you want blue, purple, yellow, red whatever... it can be configured.
