 Overview
The Cooler Master Maker Toolbox is a software development kit that gives you complete
access to the code behind LED lighting on all of our peripheral products. With the controls in
your hands and the ability to retrieve system data from your PC, your lighting can be
programmed to change, for example, according to the music you play or the speed of your
processor. Create a whole host of effects using basic C++ knowledge.

1. System Information: for the user's computer to fetch the local system time, CPU
usage, memory usage percentage, the current playback volume percentage.
2. Select Device: to select the device that you want to control, the default option is
MasterKeys Pro L.
3. LED Control: can choose from enable and disable, in the disable state can switch
effects; in the enable state can setup the keyboard LED color
4. Set LED Color for every Key: is allowed to set different colors of each key, there are
two ways to set up. One is to set a single Key; the other one is to set all keys on the
keyboard to specified / different color. Please use the drop-down menu and select
Row Column with "CoolerMaster LED Table.xls" table to determine the location
specified color.
5. Set All Led: set the whole keyboard as a single color quickly.
