Instruccions de funcionament

Rapid Trigger and Adjustable Actuation

The Captain87 keyboard features ultra-low latency magnetic switches that utilize the Hall effect for triggering, providing fast and precise key commands. The rapid trigger function allows for quick key presses and lifts by adjusting the trigger point and travel, enabling repeated key presses without fully lifting the key. This is particularly beneficial for fast-paced games.

The trigger distance is adjustable from 0.1 mm to 4 mm, with an accuracy of up to 0.1 mm for individual keys. The keyboard also includes three preset key travel modes:

  • Mode de confort: Suitable for general typing and relaxed use.
  • Mode sensible: Offers a quicker response for balanced use.
  • Mode de joc: Provides the fastest response for competitive gaming.

These modes can be switched directly on the keyboard for different scenarios. Refer to the included User Guide for specific key combinations to switch modes.

Gasket-Mounted Structure

The Captain87 features a gasket-mounted structure, which incorporates gaskets around the positioning plate. These gaskets act as a cushioning layer, significantly reducing vibrations during typing. Additionally, three layers of sound-absorbing pads are integrated between the positioning plate, PCB, and bottom case to suppress hollow sounds. This design results in a soft, even, and elastic typing feel with a pure sound profile.

CNC Aluminum Case and PBT Keycaps

The Captain87 features a top cover crafted from CNC aluminum alloy, providing exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and a premium metallic luster. This robust construction ensures a longer service life and stable performance. The keyboard is equipped with side-printed PBT keycaps, which are highly resistant to abrasion and oil, ensuring that the legends do not easily blur or fade even under high-frequency use. The side printing allows the RGB backlighting to shine through the letters effectively.
