First-time connection with the PC

The NACON GC-100XF is a so-called Plug'n'Play device. This means that the necessary driver software should be installed automatically if you connect it to your computer for the first time. Here are the steps in detail:

• Turn on your computer, wait for it to boot and log in to your Windows desktop.
• Look for an unused USB slot on your PC and plug in the USB cable of your NACON GC-100XF controller.
• Windows will detect the new device and after a few seconds it will start the installation process for the appropriate drivers. This is shown by a small icon in the taskbar.

- The installation might take a while depending on the speed of your system. Once the installation is complete, you will be presented with the according message. You can now use your GC-100XF.

D/X button

There are different ways for modern computer games to communicate with your controller and vice versa. Your GC-100XF supports the two most commonly used ones: DirectInput8 and XInput. Sometimes a game only supports one of these two protocols. Since both can't be run simultaneously, your GC-100XF features the D/X button (10) to switch between these two protocols, to make sure it works with all games.

The blue LED's around the MODE button (9) indicate the current status:

• All LED's lit (full circle) indicates XInput to be used
• Partially lit LED's indicate that the DirectInput8 protocol is active

Remark: After changing the protocol, the controller needs some short time to switch, indicated by the lights turning off. Once lit again, it's fully functional with the selected protocol.

Mode button

The MODE button (9) is used in DirectInput mode to switch between two possible configurations:

If the left half of the LED circle is lit, then the controller works in analog mode, which is default. The left stick (1) will be used for analogue input, which means for example the more you push it to the right, the more your car will turn to the right in a racing game. The digital pad (3) will simply function as it is supposed to.

If the right half circle is lit, the controller uses the digital mode. The left stick (1) and the directional pad (3) will be swapped in their functions then. This may feel more appropriate depending on the game you want to play with your GC.100XF.
