Hello.
There is a Fn+Ecs lock possibility on my keyboard.
The "problem" is that the status diode on this key is ON when the lock is OFF (basically it's ON all the time, because I don't use this lock at all).
In my opinion this diode should be ON only when the lock is ON.
Can you please tell me if this is a designed behavior or it could be changed in settings?
Thanks

To turn the light ON/OFF:
Press and hold Fn and then press Esc.
And watch light turn ON/OFF and Function Key behavior change.

my question was about possibility to turn light-diode OFF while using regular F1-F12 keys functions
I'm much more interested in F1-F12 keys then in Fn+F1-F12 and diode light is just distracting

OK. Now I understand what you are wanting to do! That's a problem I hadn't considered.
Let's see if Asus Support has an answer for you.

@phbrd I didn't try it, but if you reverse the state of Fn key in BIOS, perhaps the diode starts to work has you wish. Try it and post feedback please.
