Keyboard Keycap Dimensions
The “units” of a keycap refer to a comparison between a one “unit” standard key. This is such
that a 2u key will be two units of a 1u key.
Changing Modes/Layers
Standard Layer
In this layer, you have preset configurations for the buttons to be pressed which you can see in
the manual above.
8
Epomaker GK96S/SK96S Extended Manual Version 1.2
The default on this layer is the following:
Spectral Cycle, GK96XS-1, Spectral Cycle,
Windmill and Rainbow Waves
Driver Layer (FN + 5): Q light will light up when this mode is selected. Driver mode layer
only works when the keyboard is connected wired, and allows you to modify the backlight
colours in real-time. You can assign larger macros while connected through a cable vs storing it
on-board.
Layer 1: Onboard memory layer, The “5” key will light up when this mode is selected.
This layer will work without having to be connected wired, but you’re limited to what lighting you
saved onboard (similar to the “standard layer”).
Layer 2: Onboard memory layer, The “6” key will light up when this mode is selected.
MacOS layer. This layer is the same as Layer 1 and 3, but by default has the keys rebinded to
match a MacOS keyboard and the Backspace key will be binded to delete. This can be changed
in the driver.
Layer 3: Onboard memory layer, The “7” key will light up when this mode is selected.
This layer will work without having to be connected wired, but you’re limited to what lighting you
saved onboard (similar to the “standard layer”).
