In-Game & K2 App Settings Before you begin, there are four important settings that must be set properly for best mouse performance with KeyMander 2. Open the K2 App and select the default Gamepad profile for your game system, or download a preconfigured game profile for your game from the Game Center tab of the K2 App, then follow the instructions below. 1. Maximize all in-game sensitivity settings of the game that you are playing.

Note: A properly set deadzone is normally the step where the aim/look view begins moving on its own in any axis. That means for example, if setting the X axis to 16 causes the aim/look view to begin slowly moving to the right, the correct X axis deadzone setting is 16. 4. Use the K2 App to adjust the mouse sensitivity to your liking.

Customizing Profiles The preloaded profile is for PlayStation 4 only. If you are a Nintendo Switch or Xbox One user, please select a profile that corresponds to your game system. These profiles are console specific but not game-specific, so once the proper default profile for your console is loaded the settings can be adjusted for the specific game you are playing. Aside from adjusting profile settings, you can also customize the profile from the Library tab view.

Turn Speed The Turn Speed slider adjusts the amount of acceleration that KeyMander 2 adds when moving your mouse. A setting of 0 on the slider is equal to zero acceleration added by KeyMander 2. Settings of 1-50 add progressively greater amounts of aim acceleration to compensate for games with a slow aim/look mechanic. When tuning your profiles it is always best to start at 0 and begin making adjustments only when needed.

Microphone Mode KeyMander 2’s Microphone setting allows you turn on or off the microphone function while you play, and is very useful for headsets without a microphone mute function. The default setting uses the F9 key to toggle the microphone on/off, but can also be programmed for push-to-talk functionality using the “Hold” option in the setting menu.
PAGE 12
Macro Mode The Macro Mode (F11 key) allows a single key stroke or mouse click to perform multiple actions. For example you can set: “UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, X, O” to execute just by pressing the Y key. To create a macro select the Macro tab and then press the “+ Create Macros” button to bring up the recording window. Enter the steps exactly as you would execute the commands in the game, with the same timing sequence and then press the Stop Recording button at the bottom when done.

To Restore your game profiles: 1. Press the Library tab at the bottom of the K2 App screen. 2. Press your account icon in the upper left hand corner of the app screen. 3. Press the Restore My Last Update icon. Note: the Restore function adds any profiles missing from your device since your last Backup, and overwrites any current profiles on your device with the version from your last Backup. If you have added new profiles since your last Restore, they will be unaffected.

headshots) at the cost of having to move your hand a foot or more to turn a 360° rotation. In the older days of first-person-shooters, gamers playing titles like Counter Strike on standard definition monitors might have mouse resolutions set as low as 100 or 200 dpi, so they can snap off a headshot (without a scope) like it’s nothing.

aim/look sensitivity, you probably noticed that by moving slowly you rotated 360 degrees or more with a short swipe, but by moving very fast you rotated only a short distance. That poor movement you just experienced is NOT mouse lag, but rather the game's turn speed limit. The easiest way to understand what is happening is to equate the maximum turning speed to distance turned (rotated) in a period of time.

very tiny mouse movements are suppressed. Having too large a deadzone will cause a floaty or accelerated feeling (pixel skipping), and can also cause a rough, “stair-step-like” movement in some games that reduces accuracy when moving the mouse diagonally. Some games also include a deadzone setting in the Options Menu, so be sure to check it and set accordingly for best performance.

Troubleshooting The following is a list of common issues and how to solve them. Micro USB cable problems In the event your system is not working with the supplied micro USB cable during initial setup, you can use your own micro USB charge and sync cable for testing. If the system works normally after performing this test, replace the micro USB cable. If the system is still not working normally after performing this test, the cable is not the source of the problem.
