loclay Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 At some point after being away from my computer, perhaps when the lock screen engages, my default profile changes to the rainbow wave. I'd like it to continue using my default profile lighting, and dim. If not possible, I'd at least like it to dim when on standby. K95 RGB Platinum Win 10 64-bit Any thoughts?

hastegag Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 K95platinum can save hardware profiles. The default is probably the first one, you can save an unlit profile? that should be at the top of the list i think in icue and then during lock it will go to that one...i think but cannot verify as i have k95 regular. Ppl all complain about the rainbow at lock, but it is demo mode in all the hardware from the node to the polaris to the ST 100. some say Link used to be able to 'save' non rainbow profile that would stay in effect at lock, but I never had relevant hardware. Link could only do this to node pro fans etc, not the st100 and mm800/c polaris as they lack on board memory (I believe that last point is lost in the repeated conversations here). The fix is electrical tape or unplugging them when AFK. Maybe some custom hardware engineering with these devices could fix it, or perhaps some type of selective USB suspend, but I imagine that is quite difficult as the entire bus is powered - I have not been able to figure it out and I have tried many things.

RealAntithesis Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I'm not sure if it's just my K95 (non-platinum), but I don't get the rainbow effect when going to the lock screen on Win10 (using latest version of iCue 3.7.99). It just goes to the static lighting profile I saved to hardware (i.e. the M1, M2, or M3 hardware profiles). It would be great though for an option to use the last static lighting profile when going to the lock screen or other situation that would cause the device to revert back to a default profile (whether saved or the rainbow effect that people are complaining about).

Matte225 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Hmm. My k65 completely even prevents any kind of standby mode or sleep mode. Really annoying too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inheritance Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 If your keyboard does not support hardware profiles you can save a layer of static lighting to the device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loclay Posted September 23, 2018 Author Share Posted September 23, 2018 It does support them, and I can see which ones are hardware profiles based on their icon, but I'm not sure how to promote a stored profile to an on-board profile. Documentation on this software is a bit thin, but I'm figuring it out in my own time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Unfortunately, I don't think you can drop into the HW profile. You will need to replicate it within the HW profile in the software. However, you can use the lighting library to cut and paste individual lighting patterns from the existing profile to the library, and then to the HW profile. It looks like they changed the interface a bit on iCUE 3.7. Instead of the classic "save to device", you now have a "Onboard profiles" tab in the HW profile left menu. It depicts three SD icons at the bottom and you click on the corresponding card to save/overwrite it to the device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loclay Posted September 24, 2018 Author Share Posted September 24, 2018 I see the three HW profiles there in iCUE. The confusing thing is that none of the three are the rainbow wave pattern. When the computer display locks, I get rainbow wave. I have no idea where that's set or where to change it. Strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
