CLUTCH OPTICAL MOUSE PRODUCT MANUAL

FEATURES
Made with the sole purpose to give the esports gamer an edge over his opponents,
the Fnatic Gear CLUTCH has been designed with performance driven components
and interesting features. The curvature of the body is ergonomic yet uncomplicated.
It is a result of countless hours spent studying different hand positions and shapes,
then carving our ideas as clay models, and having the best one approved by the Fnatic
teams. Additionally, the Fnatic Gear CLUTCH features seven programmable buttons,
a scroll wheel, three user profiles, a macro recorder, and a customizable LED-lighting
system, making it completely customizable to your personal preferences.
Pixart 3310 Sensor
This optical LED sensor is the latest on the market and focuses on
performance in terms of optimal tracking speed and acceleration, setting it
apart from other sensors that push for more CPI (Counts Per Inch). It is the
best performing sensor on the market and the first choice of sensor for any
member of the Fnatic teams.
Omron switches
Omron switches with a MTBF of 10M clicks are chosen for the Left and
Right click, ensuring that the CLUTCH’s quality will not fade during its
lifetime.
Drag Reduction Cord
The exit of the cord support has been angled upward at a 30 degree angle.
This prevents the cord from touching the surface in front of the mouse,
reducing the drag of the cord.
Color System
An RGB LED lights up the CLUTCH’s scroll wheel. The RGB LED can be
configured in any color preferred by the end-user and offers various
brightness modes.
Onboard Memory
Onboard memory stores up to three profiles with three CPI steps each, as
well as macros and light configurations. This gives the end-user the ability
to smoothly switch between systems without any hassle.

FEATURE DESCRIPTION
Examples
LED’s lit while either Profile, CPI or both modes
are active.
If the user only has assigned a CPI changing
function to the mouse, the number of orange
LED’s represents the CPI levels.
If both CPI and Profile functions are assigned,
Orange is the primary color which shows the
CPI level. If the user decides to change their
profile the LED’s change to white while the user
is using a Profile changing function.
If only a Profile changing function is assigned,
white is the primary color which shows the
current Profile level. CPI level is not shown
since there is not a way to change it.
If neither a Profile or CPI changing function is
assigned, none of the LED’s are lit.
Scroll Wheel LED
Personalize your mouse by customizing the RGB
LED in the scroll wheel to any color you desire.
Pro tip - A unique color can be set for each user profile
Profile Level/CPI Indicator
Pressing the Profile cycle button cycles through
three user defined Profile levels. The number of
lit LEDs in white corresponds to which Profile
level is active.
White light indicates the current Profile level
Orange light indicates the current CPI level
Pro tip - You can assign a button via the software to switch
between CPI. The number of lit LEDs in orange corresponds to
which CPI level is active.

FUNCTIONS
The graphical interface contains three buttons at the top which indicate which
Profile is currently selected. On the right you will find the Backup/Restore
functions which allow you to backup the currently selected profile.
Beneath the Profiles you find the feature tabs where you can switch between
Basic Settings, Button Assignment, and Color Settings. To the right you have the
Macro recorder. In the far down left corner the Restore Default button is located.
This restores the mouse to its default settings. A more detailed explanation of
each of the features can be found in separate sections of the manual.
In the main header of the software window you find the FW (Firmware) and SW
(Software) versions.
Pro tip: Profiles can also be saved to an external device, such as a USB stick. This allows you take your
settings with you when you are not playing using your own system and/or mouse, or wish to share your
favorite settings with a friend.
Pro tip: Do not forget to backup your profiles to a local storage device before restoring the mouse to its
default settings.
Pro tip: It is not necessary to run the settings software in order to change profiles; the software is only
needed to setup and customize profiles. Once set, profiles are stored in the internal memory and will
remain saved until the mouse is restored to its default settings.

BASIC SETTINGS
CPI Settings
CPI (Counts Per Inch) is a unit of measurement that indicates how many counts
will be reported by the mouse when it is moved one inch. A higher CPI indicates a
higher mouse cursor velocity.
The horizontal and vertical CPI axes can be separated from each other resulting in
a higher or lower speed in one axis.
Each profile contains three levels which corresponds to the CPI level indicator that
is located on the mouse.
Pointer Sensitivity
The Pointer Sensitivity is a operating system setting which controls the speed of
the mouse cursor. (This function is global and used across all profiles)
Pro tip - We strongly encourage leaving this at six (6). Six is the direct translation of data from the mouse to
the OS – anything below or above 6 gets resampled by the OS, which could affect mouse functionality.
Double Click Speed
The Double Click Speed is a operating system setting which controls how fast you
would need to double click the left mouse button to execute a double click action.
(This function is global and used across all profiles)
Scroll Speed
Scroll Speed determines the amount of incremental row movement per scroll step.
Scroll by page indicates that instead of scrolling across rows you scroll one page at
a time. (This function is global and used across all profiles)
Polling rate
The polling rate represents how often the mouse communicates with the computer.
Pro tip - E-Sports professionals use 1000Hz
