What is the wireless range of the controller?
The wireless range is up to 10 metres over Bluetooth connection.
What are the modes for and what do they work with?
All of the modes on the controller report HID input. Each mode is tailored to work specifically with the
corresponding platform as there are some minor differences across these.
Blue mode
is tailored for Android and PC. This follows an established layout standard that you will find on
all Mad Catz Android controllers and many competitor controllers. It is also compatible with our XInput driver
and programming software on PC.
Purple mode
can work on both Android and PC. This mode combines mouse input and media controls to
make navigation and media control much more convenient.
Does the controller report as XInput on PC?
Yes. In order to do this, you will need the latest software version from our website. Once installed, right click
the product icon in the system tray and enable XInput.
Can I create game specific profiles for the controller?
On mobile, you can tune and adjust the settings of the analog sticks and triggers to suit the game you are
playing. We have also provided some default profiles for certain game genres, that you can use or tweak to
your preference. Any button adjustments should be made from within the Android games controller setup
menu.
On PC, the desktop programming software can be used to assign, keyboard presses, mouse button clicks and
mouse cursor movement to the functions of the controller. This enables you to make game specific setups,
and also adds controller support to any game that does not have this built-in. For more information on how
to do this, visit the support section of the software for step-by-step guides.
My controller will not pair with my phone, tablet or PC, how can I get it to connect?
First, make sure the controller is not paired to another device. If it is, either forget the device or power down
the internal Bluetooth chip on the host.
Next, power cycle the pad and try to repair to your desired host.
If that does not work, power the controller on, and then press and hold the start button on the pad for 5
seconds, this will clear all current pairing information and force the controller into pairing mode. The status
LED will shine purple when the reset has been successful.
Can I reset the controller?
There are two ways to reset the controller.
1.
If there is a hardware issue and the controller will not power on, use a paperclip or pin to push the
hardware reset button. If you remove the right ABXY module from the brain, the hole for the button
is located in the insert channel of the brain.
2.
You can remove all the pairing information from the controller and put it into pairing mode by
pressing and holding the start button for 5 seconds. Make sure the controller is powered on. The
status LED will shine purple when the reset has been successful.
