ADVANCED FUNCTIONS

• Switch (6):

• OFF position = gamepad is turned off.

• VIB LOW position = gamepad is turned on, vibration mode is on low (saves battery power).

• VIB HIGH position = gamepad is turned on, vibration mode is on high (uses more battery power).

• MODE button (7): press this button to switch between modes.

• Analog mode (default): MODE button (7) lights up blue.

• Digital mode: MODE button (7) is not lit up.

• CONNECT button (9): press this button to switch between modes.

• "Connect" LED is flashing quickly = no signal between gamepad and receiver (not connected).
• "Connect" LED is lit up = strong signal between gamepad and receiver.
• "Connect" LED is off = gamepad is in sleep mode.
• "Connect" LED is flashing slowly = low battery power (vibration function will be disabled in order to save power). In this case, plug in the gamepad's AC adapter to recharge the batteries.

- SLEEP MODE:

• The gamepad automatically turns off when not in use for 5 minutes.
• To "wake" it, press any button.

• To charge the rechargeable batteries, plug in the gamepad's AC adapter. The CHARGE LED turns red.
• When the batteries are fully charged, the CHARGE LED turns green.
  Note: you can use the gamepad while it is charging.

TRIGGER MAPPING

All analog buttons and mini-stick directions (axes) can be mapped to the left and right triggers (except D-Pad and START, SELECT, L3 and R3 buttons).

• MAPPING button (8) (used to map left and right triggers):
• Press and release the MAPPING button (LED flashes slowly).
• Press and release the button or direction you want to assign to the trigger (LED flashes quickly).
• Press and release the trigger assigned to this function (LED turns off).

- EEPROM:

Your gamepad includes an internal memory chip, which stores your last mapping configuration even if you turn your gamepad off.

- TRIGGER BEHAVIOR:

Triggers react differently according to whether you map 2 separate analog axes, one same analog axis or 2 separate analog buttons to them. Below are 3 different examples (in this case, for racing games).

• 2 analog buttons are mapped to the 2 triggers.
• This configuration is the most useful for racing games.
• This enables you to separately regulate analog control of the left and right triggers (there is no "master" trigger).

• 2 separate axes are mapped to the 2 triggers.
• This enables you to separately regulate analog control of the left and right triggers (there is no "master" trigger).

One same axis is mapped to the 2 triggers.
- In this case the left trigger is the "master" trigger.
If you press the left and right triggers together, your car will brake.
- This allows you to use the right trigger to control your car's speed, and briefly use the left trigger for powerful braking control.

EXAMPLES OF OTHER POSSIBLE MAPPING

The triggers provide intuitive performance in all types of games: action and FPS (progressive zoom, view, lateral movement or fire), racing (progressive gas, brake, emergency brake, manual transmission), sports (progressive pass, shoot, punch or jump...) and more.

Thus, many mapping configurations are available, according to the possibilities offered by your game.
