V. Functions
Axis button function
A special feature of the Hama X-Style Pad is that it
lets you assign different numbers axes and buttons to
the pad.
You can choose between 4A12K (4 axes and
12 buttons) and 5A10K (5 axes and 10 buttons) by
right-clicking the icon in notifi cation area.
- 4A12K
Choosing this gives you a choice of 12 fi ring
buttons.
This is designed for most games which require you
to perform a variety of functions (e.g. sports or
action
games).
- 5A10K
The advantage here is that you can use the lower
shoulder buttons for throttling gas and the brake in
racing or fl ying simulators. In this case the trigger
buttons cannot be used for any other function in the
game.
Note:
Always check which function you think is better for
the game in question, and select the appropriate one
before starting the game.

certain functions multiple times by pressing and
holding a button.

wish to set.
3. Release both buttons.
4. Press the button that you set to test if turbo is

To deactivate turbo-fi re:

2. Press and hold the button that you wish to

Note:
Not all games support the turbo-fi re function, in which
case pressing the buttons in question has no effect.
Vibration function
The X-Style Pad has two internal motors, which only
function in games that support Force Feedback and
when all the drivers provided have been installed.
Refer to the manual of your game to fi nd out if it
supports the vibration function.
If problems persist, check the game options to see if
vibration support is activated.
Mode functions
The Hama X-Style Pad lets you choose between two
modes:
1. Digital
This mode lets you control the direction of action
using the 8-way directional pad – the sticks usually
remain
deactivated.
2. Analogue
In analogue mode, the sticks assist perfectly for 3D
games. In addition to the left stick, which controls
movement, you can perform other functions using
the right stick, such as rotation. The directional pad
can help you by providing a quick all-around view.
