  • An update to version 1.05 is available via Windows Update. The update can be installed via the device manager as follows:

    Press the key combination Windows + x. A menu opens from which you can open the device manager by pressing the g key. Click on the symbol in front of Firmware and then right-click on System Firmware. In the context menu, continue with the entry Update driver. Then simply follow the on-screen instructions.

    After the update, you can recognise the successful implementation by the changed name in the device manager. Instead of system firmware, you will now find the name of the mainboard with the current BIOS version number (which may differ from the one in the screenshot) under Firmware.

    ⚠️Note⚠️ Among other things, the update improves the control of the lights.
