ADVANCED FUNCTIONS

ADJUSTING THE OPTICAL WHEEL’S SENSITIVITY

The optical wheel (2) has 2 sensitivity modes:

- Normal sensitivity (default mode)

- High sensitivity (must be adjusted)

•Adjustment for “High sensitivity” mode:

Steps Action Color of MODE

button

1 Raise and hold the “UP” direction on the optical wheel

2 Press and release the MAPPING button (7)

Flashes Red

2 seconds

The optical wheel is now more sensitive

(Repeat this procedure each time you restart your console or disconnect the gamepad)

•Adjustment to return to “Normal sensitivity” mode:

Steps Action Color of MODE

button

1 Lower and hold the “DOWN” direction on the optical wheel

2 Press and release the MAPPING button (7)

Flashes Green

2 seconds

The optical wheel has now returned to normal sensitivity (the default mode)

2 PROGRAMMING MODES

The PRESET button and LED (9) allows you to view the type of programming selected:

AUTOMATIC (preprogrammed) or MANUAL (programmed by yourself). A single press of this button

allows you (even during the course of a game) to switch from one programming mode to another.

•“AUTOMATIC PRESET” (PRESET button OFF)

This represents the default programming: The functions of the optical wheel and the triggers are

preprogrammed, as are the positions of the buttons and the directions of the mini-sticks and of the D-Pad.

PLEASE REFER TO THE “AUTOMATIC PRESET” CONFIGURATION DIAGRAMS

•“MANUAL PRESET” (PRESET button GREEN)

This represents your own personal programming:

- The buttons, directions of the mini-sticks and of the D-Pad can either be:

* Programmed on the optical wheel and on the triggers; or

* Switched between themselves.

- You can modify the programming to your liking and whenever you wish.

- The programming is automatically saved inside your gamepad (even when disconnected).

- When your “MANUAL PRESET” is clear, it is identical to the “AUTOMATIC PRESET”.

PROGRAMMING THE OPTICAL WHEEL AND TRIGGERS

The 2 directions of the optical wheel and the 2 progressive triggers can be programmed using the

MAPPING button (7).

•Examples of possible applications:

Programming a button, direction of a mini-stick or of the D-Pad:

- onto the “up” or “down” direction of the optical wheel

- onto the “right” trigger or “left” trigger

•Programming procedure on optical wheel and triggers:

Steps Action Color of PRESET

(with your programming applied to the optical wheel or triggers)

SWITCHING BUTTONS/MINI-STICKS/D-PAD

All progressive buttons (on PS2 and PS3) or digital buttons (on PC), as well as directions of the mini-sticks

and of the D-Pad can be switched using the MAPPING button (7).

•Examples of possible applications:

- Switch buttons between themselves

- Switch the 2 mini-sticks

(in this case, you will to have to map the 4 directions of the first mini-stick to the 4 directions of the

second mini-stick)

- Switch the D-Pad with a mini-stick

(in this case, you will have to map the 4 D-Pad directions to the 4 directions of the mini-stick in

question).

•Procedure for switching buttons, mini-sticks and D-Pad

(does not work with the optical wheel and triggers, except for on PC in “7 axes” mode)

Steps Action Color of PRESET

EEPROM MEMORY

•Your gamepad features an internal chip which serves to retain all of your “MANUAL PRESET”

programming in memory (even when the gamepad is switched off or disconnected for a long period of

time).

•You can save 1 different “MANUAL PRESET” for each system used (PS1, PS2, PS3, PC 4 Axes, PC 5

Axes or PC 7 Axes). The exception is for “PS3” and “PC 4 Axes”, which use the same “MANUAL

PRESET” (modifying or erasing one of these will have the same effect on the other).

Steps Action Color of PRESET

button

1 Enable your “MANUAL PRESET” (9) Lit up Green

2 Press and hold the MAPPING button (7)

for 2 seconds

Flashes Green

2 seconds

Your “MANUAL PRESET” has now been erased (and is identical to the “Automatic Preset”)

TO RETURN TO “FACTORY SETTINGS”

You can erase all of your programming and settings with a single step:

Steps Action Color of PRESET button

1 Press the MAPPING + SELECT + START buttons

simultaneously

Flashes Green and Red

2 seconds

All of your “MANUAL PRESETS” (= PC + PS2 + PS3) or settings have now been erased

Note: On PC, we recommend that you do not carry out this step while in a game.

POSSIBLE USES IN GAMES

The optical wheel (thanks to its technology and degree of rotation greater than that of any mini-stick)

offers unparalleled precision and stability in all types of games: racing (ultra-precise steering), flying

(rudder), action and FPS (progressive zoom), sports (measured shot, strength of hit), etc.

The triggers (thanks to their progressive action and range of mechanical travel greater than that of any

button) offer extremely precise control in all types of games: racing (progressive and independent

acceleration and braking, handbrake), action and FPS (rate of fire, lateral movement), sports (measured

pass or shot, strength of hit or jump, running speed), etc.

SOME EXAMPLES AND TIPS:

- There are numerous configuration possibilities, depending on the game you are playing.

- On PC, if a game does not accept your programming (undesired effects) in “5 or 7 axes” mode, switch

your gamepad to “4 axes” mode (the standard mode).

- In certain (racing style) games, don’t hesitate to test out the 2 sensitivity modes for the optical wheel

(Normal or High) in order to optimize its precision and responsiveness.
