Title: Ducky 9087 LED Question?
Post by: Phaseshift on Mon, 06 May 2013, 23:45:19
So I just got my ducky and omg I love it and OMG my gf is going to hate me for this keyboard. It's so loud.

Anywho I'm trying to mess with the LED configuration on the manual it says:

First time: 60% LED
Second time: All LEDs Illuminated
Third Time: Pulsing Mode
Fourth Time: Reactive mode
FifthTime: Scrolling text marque
Sixth Time: All off

Reactive mode doesn't seem to work. Once I press the FN + F10 key 5 times the LEDS blink twice and that's it. It doesn't light up when I press a key. Mind you this is straight out of the box and plugged into my mac mini.

lol it's one of those DUH moments. Btw, I think that reactive mode is one of the more useless features: in order to light up the key, you must type on it. But when you type on it, your fingers cover up the key and area where the light is suppose to shine through.

Yep, Youtube videos show from a different perspective, so you think you'll notice it. It's neat but still quite a gimmick.

Okay one more question, does the LED ever turn off when the computer goes on standby/sleep?
