It's a key in between RAlt and Appskey, which is used to adjust the keyboard backlight. This is not reflected in Key viewer.
What should I do in order to auto-disable the backlight completely and automatically?

Re: how to disable keyboard backlight with unknown keys?
I believe that you can't remap or send keys that are not visible to the AHK key viewer.
If I shouldn't be correct, I'd be very interested in this as well, because this would help making those annoying hardware-specific keys doing useful stuff.

It could be that it's all handled at the keyboard hardware level, which would make it impossible for Windows or AHK to act on it because nothing even reaches the OS when they are pressed. If there is some sort of software for the keyboard that allows for configuring those keys, then it actually is reaching the OS in some way, so you would have a chance of being able to act on them.

depending on the keyboard's microcontroller(eg teensy) u may be able to send it some usb packets and control it that way(eg usb2serial)
