DARKBEACON GUIDE

Manage Assets

Manage available library resources and select existing keyboard screen images where the device offers that control.

On this page

Applies to: DarkBeacon App

What you will accomplish

Use Assets as the library for supported macros, lighting resources, and other digital content while keeping device application and cloud storage decisions explicit.

Steps

Steps
  1. Open Assets and select the visible resource category. For key sound albums and Rhythm Challenge, use the connected device's Key Sound page instead.
  2. Search or sort by name, source, creation time, game, or compatible model when those filters are present.
  3. Open the item details and confirm its source, target model, preview state, and any missing dependency.
  4. Preview in a copied profile before applying it to a device.
  5. Use Edit, Duplicate, Export, Delete, or Share only when the action is visible and the item permits it.
  6. If cloud storage information is shown, confirm upload completion and remaining capacity before relying on another computer to restore the item.

Use an image already stored on your keyboard

Screen images are managed from the connected keyboard's screen page, not the Assets library. These steps apply only when that page shows Images on device and the current firmware supports it.

  1. Sign in, connect and select the keyboard, then open its screen controls.
  2. Under Images on device, choose Refresh to read the valid images currently stored on that keyboard.
  3. Choose an available System image or User image, then confirm the image actually appears on the keyboard's screen.

Selecting an existing image does not transfer a new file. For keyboards with this control, use USB to upload new images; being able to select an existing image over a supported wireless connection does not enable wireless uploads. Follow the page's transfer progress and save controls before disconnecting.

If the list is empty or the firmware cannot query it, do not assume an earlier upload succeeded. Check the connection and refresh once, or use the supported USB image workflow. For Steampunk's separate screen and screensaver controls, see Configure the Steampunk screen and screensaver.

Confirm success

The item appears in the intended category, its preview or application state is clear, and no unsupported-model or missing-content warning remains.

Save result

Asset storage, cloud synchronization, profile application, and device persistence are separate states. Confirm each one that matters to your workflow.

Limits and cautions

Downloaded or community-created content is not an official support claim. Remove private names, account details, and third-party content before exporting or sharing.

Recovery

Cancel the preview, return to the previous profile, or restore an exported copy. Contact support before deleting an item whose cloud or purchase state is unclear.
