FAQs
Is the keyboard compatible with Mac and Windows?
Yes, it is fully compatible. There is a physical toggle switch on the back to swap between macOS and Windows layouts.
Can I swap the switches while the keyboard is on?
While the keyboard is hot-swappable, it is recommended to turn the keyboard off or unplug it before swapping switches to avoid potential short circuits.
How long does the battery last?
The 4000 mAh battery provides up to 225 hours of use without backlighting, depending on usage intensity.
Does this keyboard support N-key rollover?
Yes, it supports full N-key rollover, meaning every key press is registered regardless of how many keys are pressed simultaneously.
What is the key profile?
The V5 Max utilizes a high-profile keycap set for a traditional, satisfying mechanical feel.
Troubleshooting
Keyboard not connecting via Bluetooth
Ensure the toggle is set to 'BT' mode and hold 'Fn + 1, 2, or 3' to enter pairing mode again.
Key registered incorrectly or needs mapping
Use the VIA web-based application to remap keys or reset the board to default settings.
Battery draining faster than expected
Lower the brightness of the RGB backlighting or disable it entirely when working wirelessly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your V5 Max, first move the toggle switch on the back to your desired mode: Cable, Bluetooth, or 2.4 GHz. If using 2.4 GHz, plug the included receiver into a USB-A or USB-C port. For Bluetooth pairing, hold 'Fn + 1' for three seconds until the key flashes, then select the keyboard on your device. To keep your keyboard in top condition, clean the keycaps with a soft, dry cloth and use a compressed air canister to remove debris from between the switches. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the PBT material over time.
