The ADX Firefight MK02 RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard is sold in PC World / Currys. It provides a number of light modes but these aren’t explained very well in the documentation. Here is a list of the available light modes to help you configure your keyboard.
I purchased this keyboard as I wanted key illumination. It seemed to be a sensible price for a keyboard with a number of lighting options and a bit of customisation. My main use for it is typing and productivity tasks rather than gaming and I’m happy with it so far.

ADX MK02 Gaming Keyboard Light modes
To set one of the preset RGB lighting modes press [Fn]+[Insert].
The preset back-light effects will cycle through the sequence shown below :
| # | Mode | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Off | No lights |
| 2 | Side Fade | All keys fade on/off left to right. |
| 3 | Row fade | Each line has a different colour and the colour moves from top to bottom |
| 4 | Single Key | All keys off. Pressing key lights up and slowly fades off. |
| 5 | Single Colour | Whole keyboard fades in and out. |
| 6 | Whole Keyboard Colour Fade | Whole keyboard slowly fades between the colours. |
| 7 | Single Key Burst | All keys off. Pressing a key sends out a burst across whole keyboard. |
| 8 | Permanently on | All keys are illuminated with single colour |
| 9 | Rainbow Keys | All keys lit up in random colours. Colours slowly cycle. |
| 10 | Line burst | All keys off. Pressing key lights up keys in the same row with a single colour. |
| 11 | Random one colour | All keys quickly randomly fade in and out with a single colour. |
[Fn]+[Delete] will change the colour for some of the modes. For example in mode 2 pressing [Fn]+[Delete] will allow you to choice the colour that is used for the left-to-right fade.
Some of the effects are very similar so you might need to run through the sequence on your keyboard to find your place in the sequence.
Note: The “ADX” brand appears to be a renamed version of “AFX”. As far as I can tell the “AFX MK02” is the same keyboard as the “ADX MK02”.
