HOW TO

How to: Enable power saving mode on your KATAR PRO WIRELESS gaming mouse

If the battery of your KATAR PRO WIRELESS gaming mouse is running low or you want your mouse to prioritize battery life, you can enable power saving mode on your mouse.

In power saving mode, your KATAR PRO WIRELESS will:

  • Change the mouse sleep timer to 10 seconds
  • Drop the mouse polling rate to 125Hz

 

If the battery life of your mouse goes under 15%, the mouse will automatically go into power-saving mode and will indicate the change by having the DPI indicator pulse red.
