To power it off, unplug the receiver; it will shut down automatically after staying unconnected for more than 30 seconds. Additionally, the gamepad will automatically shut down if it remains connected without any operation for more than 5 minutes.
Charging:
- If the controller is unconnected during charging, all four LEDs will stay on for 5 seconds and then start flashing. Once fully charged, all four LEDs will turn off.
- If the controller is connected during charging, the corresponding LED will flash and remain on when fully charged.
- When the voltage drops below 3.6V, the LED will flash rapidly, and vibration will be turned off.
Connecting to PS3:
- Plug the USB receiver into a free USB port on the PS3 console.
- With all LEDs off, press the Home Button once to power on the gamepad. It will vibrate once, and all four LEDs will flash, indicating it's attempting to connect.
- The PS3 console supports up to 7 game controllers. The LED status indicates which controller number is connected:
- First One: LED1 stays on
- Second One: LED2 stays on
- Third One: LED3 stays on
- Fourth One: LED4 stays on
- Fifth One: LED1 and LED4 stay on

Connecting to PC:
- Insert the USB receiver into a free USB port on your PC.
- With all LEDs off, press the Home Button once to power on the gamepad. It will vibrate once, and all four LEDs will flash, indicating it's attempting to connect.
- When LED1 and LED2 stay on, the connection is complete, and the gamepad is in Xinput mode by default.
- To switch to Dinput mode, press and hold the Home Button for 6 seconds. All four LEDs will flash, and when LED1 and LED3 remain on, it signifies Dinput mode.
- In Dinput mode, pressing the HOME Button once will switch to Dinput digit mode, where LED1 and LED4 will stay on, swapping the functionality of the D-pad and left stick.
- One computer can support multiple game controllers.
Connecting to Android Smartphone/Tablet:
- Plug an OTG cable (not included) into the receiver, then insert the receiver into your Android phone or tablet.
- With all LEDs off, press the Home Button once to power on the gamepad. It will vibrate once, and all four LEDs will flash, indicating it's attempting to connect.
- When LED3 and LED4 remain on, the connection is complete, and the gamepad is in Android mode. If not, hold down the HOME Button for 6 seconds to achieve this.
- Note: Your Android phone or tablet must fully support the OTG function, which needs to be enabled first. Android games currently do not support vibration.
