V. Functions
Vibration function
The Hama
Flashlight
Pad has two internal motors,
which only function in games that support Force
Feedback and when all supplied drivers have been
installed. Refer to the manual of your game to disco-
ver whether the game supports vibration or not.
If problems persist, check whether vibration support
has been activated in the game options.
Mode functions
The Hama
Flashlight Pad
allows you to choose
between two modes:
1.
Digital
In this mode, you can specifi cally control the direc-
tion of action using the eight-way D-pad – the sticks
are deactivated for the most part
2.
Analogue
In analogue mode, the sticks are ideal for 3D games.
In addition to the left stick, which controls move-
ment, you can perform other functions using the
right stick, including rotation. The D-pad provides
you with fast, all-around viewing.
