6. Troubleshooting

6.1 Connectivity Issues

• Controller not connecting:
  • Ensure the controller is charged.
  • Verify the correct connection mode (wired, 2.4G adapter, Bluetooth) is selected and the device is in pairing mode if necessary.
  • For 2.4G, ensure the Hyperlink Adapter is securely plugged into the host device.
  • For Bluetooth, ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device and the controller is in pairing mode. Try removing previous pairings and re-pairing.
• Intermittent connection:
  • Reduce distance between controller and host device.
  • Avoid interference from other wireless devices.
  • Ensure the Hyperlink Adapter is not obstructed.

6.2 Joystick/Trigger Issues

• Joystick drift: The KK3 Pro uses Hall Effect joysticks, which are designed to prevent drift. If you experience issues, try recalibrating the joysticks through the controller's settings or a dedicated GuliKit software (if available).
• Unresponsive buttons/triggers:
  • Ensure the controller is fully charged.
  • Check for any physical obstructions or debris under the buttons.
  • Perform a factory reset (refer to quick start guide for procedure).

6.3 Power/Charging Issues

• Controller not charging:
  • Ensure the USB-C cable is properly connected to both the controller and the power source.
  • Try a different USB-C cable or power source.
  • Check the charging port for any debris.
• Short battery life:
  • Reduce RGB lighting brightness or turn it off.
  • Disable vibration if not needed.
  • Ensure the controller is fully charged before use.

7. User Tips

• Platform Compatibility: The GuliKit KK3 Pro Controller is compatible with Windows, Nintendo Switch, Android, and iOS. It is NOT compatible with Xbox One or other Xbox consoles.
• Polling Rate: For competitive PC gaming, utilize the Hyperlink Adapter to achieve the full 1000Hz polling rate for minimal latency and super-fast response. Bluetooth connections will operate at a lower polling rate (e.g., 125Hz).
• Rear Paddles: Experiment with remapping the G1-G4 rear paddles to frequently used in-game actions (e.g., jump, reload, melee) to improve reaction time and comfort.
• D-Pad Mode: If you experience unintended inputs with the D-pad in certain games, especially FPS titles, try switching the D-pad to 4-direction mode to prevent "ghosting."
• APG Feature: The Auto-Pilot Gaming feature can be very useful for automating repetitive tasks or executing complex combos in games. Practice recording and replaying sequences to master this feature.
