Overview:
Headset / MIC connection:
1. Connect your microphone or headset microphone to the MIC IN jack on the EVGA Killer Xeno Pro.
2. Connect your headphones or speakers to the LINE OUT or AUDIO OUT jack on your motherboard
(if using onboard audio) or your sound card if using a dedicated sound card.
Headset Only Option:
A third option is to use your headset exclusively for Xeno voice chat, and leave your speakers for game
audio without mixing the two in your sound card’s control panel. To do this, connect the microphone plug
on your headset to the microphone jack on your Killer Xeno, and the headphone plug on your headset to
the audio-out jack on the Killer Xeno. Remember – this option will leave the voice chat audio exclusively on
the Killer Xeno.
The Killer Xeno™ software suite installs several programs to help configure and maintain your Killer Xeno
in addition to the basic driver system files which operate the card.
XenoTray.exe
- This is your interface to access Killer Xeno features. After installing the software package
the icon will appear in your system tray.
You can right-click the tray icon to:
1. Change the state of LLR by selecting “LLR Game Mode” or “LLR App Mode”
OR
2. Access installed features, FNA programs or the configuration menu:

XenoConfig.exe
– Xeno Configuration is accessible from the Start Menu or via the KillerTray icon.
Bandwidth Control
– A feature which allows you to set different priorities for your Internet traffic.
LLR
stands for
Lag and Latency Reduction
.
When LLR is configured to run in
Game Mode
, your Xeno is optimized for gaming! LLR
Game Mode
enables your Killer Xeno to bypass the Windows
®
Network Stack, prioritize game data and free up
system resources.
When LLR is configured to run in
App Mode
, your Killer Xeno is functioning as an optimized, but “normal”,
NIC (network interface card).
App Mode
can be viewed as a ‘fail-safe’ mode that can be used to run
programs which cannot function in
Game Mode
or to troubleshoot any compatibility issues that may
occur for games in
Game Mode
.
