Sensitivity (DPI)
This mouse supports up to 5 sensitivity presets. You can define them like this:
rivalcfg --sensitivity 800 # one preset
rivalcfg --sensitivity 800,1600 # two presets
You can switch preset using the button under the mouse wheel.
Note
When you set the sensitivity through the CLI, the selected preset always back to the first one.
Note
From Python API, you can pass an int
, a tuple
or a list
as parameter. You are also able to change the currently selected preset:
mouse.sensitivity(800)
mouse.sensitivity("800, 1600")
mouse.sensitivity([800, 1600])
# select the second preset (1600 dpi)
mouse.sensitivity([800, 1600, 2000, 4000], selected_preset=2)
Colors
This mouse supports colors. Various formats are supported.
Hexadecimal notation
You can use a 24 bit hexadecimal notation (like in HTML / CSS documents). Example of “red” color using hexadecimal notation:
#FF0000
FF0000
#F00

also pass colors as RGB tuple
or list
:

[255, 0, 0]
Important
On newer SteelSeries mice, the color settings are not saved in the onboard memory anymore (see Default Lighting bellow).
Rainbow Effect
The Aerox 5 offers an onboard rainbow light effect. Please note that the effect is reset if you change colors.
