Introduction

The Lioncast LM20 is the next evolutionary step in the history of Lioncast gaming mice. Optimi-zed for the use in FPS-, RTS-, and MOBA-Games, every detail was especially adjusted for these fields of application.
The modified Avago 9800 laser sensor with its scanning speed of 150IPS, acceleration of up to 30G and scanning speed of 12.000FPS is rea-dy to convey all of your movements into your game. Omron gaming grade switches have su-perior longevity with a guaranteed lifetime of over 5 million clicks and perfect activation every single time. The polling rate of 1000Hz enables reaction times up to 1ms to give you the that critical edge over your opponents.
The internal LEDs are configurable through the included software and can be stored in the five internal profiles, together with the DPI and button settings. Those profiles are stored in the internal hardware memory of the mouse and therefore available on every PC even without installing the software. The perfect solution for your tourneys or your next Lan-party!
Ergonomics were of the highest importance to us when developing the LM20 mouse. Optimi-zed for different grips and hand shapes, materials which provide the best grip in every situation, buttons which are easily accessible even in the heat of battle, millisecond reaction times and the adjustable weight – every detail was considered to give you the biggest possible advantage over your competition!

Profile & Mouse Configuration 

Configuring your mouse (without the software):

When using the mouse without the software you can choose between five profiles and the corresponding colors by using the profile switch on the bottom of the mouse. Please check the table above for reference. The chosen profile can always be checked by the color of the LED.
Each profile also has a standard DPI setting that can be changed by using the DPI + / - switches on the top of the mouse. In each profile you can freely choose any of the five standard DPI set-tings (1000 / 2000 / 4000 / 8200 / 16400 DPI).

Installing the Lioncast LM20 Software:

1. Plug the Lioncast LM20 Mouse intothe USB port on your computer.
2. Install the software either from the included CD or by downloading the installer from https://www.lioncast.de/downloads

Lioncast Tip:
When configuring your mouse with the soft-ware, you can save all the settings into the mouse itself and use them on every computer just by plugging it in. No installation of the soft-ware is needed for this, only the plug and play drivers from Windows will be installed.

Macro Manager I

Macro Assignment
With the macro manager you can create a series of commands that are executed with perfect precision just by hitting one button. This is useful for all kinds of applications and your imagination is the limit. As this is a very complex topic you should take your time with this and expect some learning curve. We are interested in which cool solutions you will come up with!

Getting Started

• Step 1
  Start the macro manager by selecting a mouse button on the general tab and clicking on macro and then macro manager.
• Step 2
  Click on New and choose a name for your macro.
• Step 3
  Click on the record button and record some key presses on your keyboard, like writing your name, then click the stop button.

  Step 6 
  Open Notepad to test your creation. Click into the notepad window and press your macro key on the mouse. Your macro should now be running and you should see the result on the notepad screen.
  You can now tweak your macro with the action edit tools on the right hand side of the macro editor or record a new macro in another slot.  With the options at the top right position you can automatically insert delays between your actions. The first option records the delay in real time and the second option inserts a fixed delay between the actions. The delay can be in-serted in the proper field in milliseconds. With the “Number of Loops” option you can let your macro cycle the desired amount of times. Mouse action can be recorded with the “Mouse Action” button on the bottom of the page only, but not in real time.
