BASE CAMP SOFTWARE

 

 

 

 

 

For complete control over your Mountain peripherals, you need to download their Base Camp software.

At start-up the software detects all compatible peripherals and checks for firmware updates.

 

 

Updating the firmware only takes but a couple of minutes.

 

 

The very first tab is the settings tab and from here you can configure game mode, disable indicator LEDs, change the layout of the keyboard, reset all settings to factory defaults and access the full device manual.

 

 

You can adjust everything in regards to the display dial and the display keys from the 2nd tab.

 

 

You can even upload your own picture for the dial to display instead of the Mountain logo.

 

 

The macro tab is self-explanatory (not much of a macro guy myself but many people do find them useful).

 

 

From the key binding tab, you can program every single one of the keys found on the Everest Max.

 

 

Inside the lighting tab you’ll be able to change the effects (7 available ones), switch between single and RGB lighting, sync your choices across compatible devices and adjust the speed, direction and brightness levels.

 

 

As you can see the gaps around the keyboard are not random, light comes from probably LED strips located inside (9 LEDs on each side).

 

 

The 4 display keys are a nice touch and obviously remind me of the Elgato Stream Deck models.

 

 

The dial is also a nice touch but the bottom end is clearly not part of the LED screen.

 

 

From the dial you can access several screens such as keyboard lighting, system volume, keyboard brightness levels, system resource monitor, APM and a digital/analog clock.

 

 

Finally, here you can see the minimum and maximum brightness levels.
