To unlock full customization, download the Logitech® Setpoint® configuration panel (for updates, visit www.logitech.com). Your G9 comes with special Setpoint® features that allow you to configure personalized mouse settings and save these settings directly in your mouse for TRUE PLUG-AND-PLAY PERFORMANCE.
Interchangeable Grips
Your G9 Laser Mouse lets you adjust the comfort and design of your mouse with interchangeable grips.
Choose the Wide Load Grip if you want a fuller shape and wider thumb rest. Wide Load comes in a soft, satin finish for the ultimate comfort. Choose the Precision Grip if you like a compact shape, optimal for smaller hands and fingertip control. The Precision Grip is coated with DryGrip technology to wick away sweat during long gaming sessions.
Remove Grips by pressing the release button on the back of the mouse. Swap between Wide Load and Precision, or choose from additional styles of grips sold separately online.
Ultra Gaming-Grade Precision
Your G9 delivers the most advanced technology for superior tracking precision and speed. When it comes to your game, you’ll feel the difference in cursor responsiveness and control.
The gaming-grade 3200 dpi Laser Engine gives you pixel-precise tracking at any speed. The dpi resolution affects cursor speed across the screen. You can adjust the dpi resolution setting from 200 to 3200 dpi in increments of 200. Your preferred dpi settings can be determined in the Setpoint® software and saved to your G9’s onboard memory for access without software. You can then use the G9’s dpi adjust buttons to change dpi on-the-fly to vary cursor speed in different situations. Lower dpi settings enable you to snipe with pinpoint accuracy, while higher dpi settings are great for situations where you need speed (e.g., in a tank). This feature is also valuable to adjust for your screen resolution.
Full-Speed USB gives the instant response and no lag. Most conventional mice only report 125 reports/ second. With Full-Speed USB, the G9 reports up to 1000 reports/second. Setpoint® software allows you to adjust your report rate (polling speed) in your mouse. As the report rate increases, more PC resources are used.
Weight Tuning System
Many gamers have a preference for the weight of their mouse. Some like a mouse with more heft, something that feels substantial and easy to control. Others prefer a lightweight mouse, especially gamers who skate and lift their mouse often. A lighter mouse can offer speed and cause less fatigue for these gamers. The G9’s weight tuning system accommodates your needs as a gamer so you get the feel best suited to the way you play.
A complete weight tuning system comes with your G9 Laser Mouse, including a weight tin containing eight mix-and-match metal weights of 7g and 4g. You can add up to 28g of additional weight. Just pop the Grip off, and you’ll reveal the spring-loaded inset weight cartridge. Push in the cartridge (see the Logitech® logo), and the cartridge will pop out. Insert the weights to your liking for a customized mouse weight. Feel the difference a few grams make.
MicroGear™ Precision Scroll Wheel with Hyper-Fast Scrolling
Once you experience the MicroGear™ Precision Scroll Wheel, it’ll be hard to go back. This exclusive advanced scroll wheel technology offers dual modes. In Ratchet mode, you get distinct click-to-click ratcheted scrolling, which is perfect for precise weapon selection and is preferred in games. However, gamers inevitably use their gaming mouse to do other things on their PC, and by switching into Hyper-Fast mode, the wheel instantly delivers frictionless inertia scrolling through long documents. Flip through hundreds of pages in seconds.
In order to switch between Ratchet and HyperFast scrolling modes, simply push the wheel toggle button on the bottom of your mouse. Your scroll wheel also has a programmable middle button, as well as a programmable tilt wheel for extra button functionality.
Plug and Play Performance with On-Board Memory
Many gamers hate drivers and software when it comes to their mice. Anything that could potentially slow down the game is not good. And when traveling to LAN parties, tournaments or any other PC, you want a consistent experience on your mouse.
Now, with onboard memory and an enhanced Setpoint® configuration panel, you can configure your mouse to your liking – and keep these settings working on your mouse without software for the fastest performance. No matter which PC you’re on, your mouse will work the way you want it to.
To get true plug-and-play performance, you can save mouse settings in up to 5 profiles in onboard memory.
Profiles
Go to www.logitech.com for more detailed information on configuring and using your mouse setting profiles. Help is also available as you navigate through the configuration panel in Setpoint’s advanced software for the G9.
Your G9 can store up to 5 profiles of mouse settings in onboard memory on your mouse hardware, but when using the Setpoint® software, you can save many more profiles on your hard drive. Out of the box, your G9 comes with 3 pre-configured profiles in on-board memory. You can store up to 2 more on your mouse (choose from the profiles you create in software), or reduce down to a single profile on your mouse.
There are many mouse settings that can be configured in a profile. These include:
- Button assignments
- Keyboard macros assignable to mouse buttons
- DPI settings (dpi levels, number of dpi levels)
- LED display color (choose from a broad color spectrum)
- Report rate (125-1000 reports/second)
You need to have Setpoint® installed in order to configure your profiles. However, once you set up and save a profile, you can designate up to five of your profiles to be “burned” into your G9’s onboard memory. If you use your mouse on another PC or uninstall Setpoint®, your mouse settings for those profiles will still work on your G9. (Note: There are a few special settings that can only work while Setpoint® is running on your PC; in the case you choose a setting where this is true, Setpoint® will notify you.) With Setpoint® running, you can also enable Application Detection if you choose. When Application Detection is running, the profiles in onboard memory are not necessarily active (unless you specify application-specific behavior for them).
You will not be able to toggle between profiles using your mouse-switching buttons.
There will be a main profile on your mouse (Profile 1 shipped out-of-box) that will be enabled for all applications when Application Detection is running. This main profile can be edited. You can then designate additional profiles in your Profile Library to run when your PC detects a specific application or game running. Your mouse will automatically employ the designated profile settings once it detects the corresponding application. In all other applications where a specific profile is not specified, the mouse will employ the main profile behavior.
Custom-Color LED Display
Underneath the dpi adjust buttons, your G9 has an LED display. The LEDs indicate both dpi and onboard memory profile settings.
The G9 allows you to change the color of the LEDs to your preference using Setpoint® software. Choose your favorite colors from a broad color spectrum. You can assign a different color to each profile so you can always tell which profile is enabled by the color of the LEDs.
LED Display Settings
LED settings will always be indicated in ascending order from left to right. The lighting scheme will change depending on the number of dpi and profile settings you choose to have, but in all cases, the LEDs will light up to indicate the lowest setting on the left to the highest setting on the right.
This LED display by default will indicate what dpi setting is active (DPI Mode). When the Profile button (bottom of the mouse) is being pressed (Profile Mode), the LEDs will indicate which profile setting stored in onboard memory is enabled. In this Profile Mode, the running man LED will blink to show you are able to actively change the profile setting. When the mouse is in DPI mode, pressing the + and – buttons will change the dpi setting. When in Profile Mode, these same buttons will change the Profile setting.
Note: When Application Detection is enabled in Setpoint®, the LEDs will only indicate dpi settings and not profile settings.
