Joystick Functions

• The joystick functions as the directional input (D-Pad or Left Analog Stick) for character movement and menu navigation.
• It provides precise 8-way directional control essential for executing complex fighting game commands.

Button Functions

The eight main action buttons correspond to the face buttons and shoulder buttons of a standard Xbox 360 controller. Their specific in-game functions will depend on the game's control scheme.

• Main Action Buttons: Typically used for attacks (light, medium, heavy punches/kicks) and special moves.
• Start Button: Used to pause games or confirm selections.
• Back Button: Used for in-game menus or specific actions.
• Xbox Guide Button: Accesses the Xbox 360 Guide menu.

Mode Switch (if applicable)

Some arcade sticks feature a mode switch to change the joystick's input type (e.g., D-Pad, Left Analog Stick, Right Analog Stick). Refer to the specific markings on your device for this functionality. If present, ensure it is set to the desired mode for your game.

Maintenance

Cleaning

• Wipe the surface of the arcade stick with a soft, dry cloth.
• For stubborn dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with water. Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or excessive moisture, as this can damage the finish and internal components.
• Avoid spraying cleaning solutions directly onto the device.

Storage

• Store the arcade stick in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
