We put all our skill in designing and producing tools that help you progress in gaming, whether it is for personal pleasure or for professional competition. UIX is not an exception. UIX has[...]

3. Game Profile Management Game profiles are complete sets that contain your device's configuration. All the UIX compatible COUGAR gaming peripherals can store up to three game profiles on board, which will be the ones that stay active. As for macros, the ones used in the on board profiles will be stored on the mouse; the rest will be stored o[...]

Profile name is simply the name you want to give that specific profile. Usually it is best to choose a name that is closely related to the usage you plan to give it (for example, “healing spells” if you are setting it up to have quick access to buffs and boosts; or “racing games” if you are defining some settings that are useful for that ge[...]

To make it one of the three active profiles, you need to close the game profile management window, choose one of the three active profiles in the mid left side of the UIX interface and open the sliding menu called current game profile. From there, choose which of your profiles you want to associate with this mode and click “Apply”. 4- After cre[...]

To go to the Performance panel, click on the button with that name, located under the profile selection area We know that most of you have this quite clear, but for those who don't, now is a good moment to learn! DPI means dot per inch, and it r[...]

Please note that the accuracy with which you will be able to set the DPI levels will vary from model to model. Some models will allow for extremely precise DPI selection, while others will provide a smaller number of choices at some key points. The box to the left of each mode's name allows us to set it as either activated or deactivated. If w[...]

Pinpoint Sniping This section allows us to set the DPI settings that will become active when you press the Sniper mode button, and stay so until we release it. As with the standard DPI settings, you can adjust independently the DPI levels for the X and Y axis by checking the box under that section. For more information about this mode, see the sect[...]

Lift Height This sections allows you to define the height at which the mouse will stop providing input. If you choose “low”, the mouse will stop responding almost immediately upon being lifted. If you choose “high”, the mouse will still provide input even when you lift it moderately. The right level for this parameter depends entirely on yo[...]

Windows pointer speed and mouse acceleration This section allows you to adjust the Windows Pointer Speed. Setting it to Slow will provide you with slower mouse movements, and the opposite applies it you set it closer to Fast. Please note that there is a difference between this and adjusting the DPI mode. Even if both can affect the speed with which[...]

To add any function to a specific button, we need to drag the function's icon from the panel on the right to the box corresponding to the button in which we want to use that function. 5.

Record mouse movement offers us three different choices related to the macro. First and foremost, it gives us the choice of not recording the mouse's movements, to record absolute coordinates and to record relative coordinates. The first one will omit the mouse movements from the recording process, while the second will record its absolute coo[...]

Under these settings we've got the list of input components of the macro. The first column, No., simply indicates the order in which the actions listed will be performed when the macro is executed. No. 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 2 3 Delay time 1640 MS Delay time MS Delay time 60 MS Delay time 1640 MS Relative X:349 Y:-62 Absolute X:644 [...]
