4. Operating Modes

The V600 Gamepad supports three operating modes, switchable via the X/D/A button located on the front of the controller. The current mode is indicated by an LED light.

• XInput (X) Mode:

  This is the recommended mode for playing modern gamepad-supported games on Windows PCs. It provides native support for many contemporary titles, offering a seamless plug-and-play experience.

• DirectInput (D) Mode:

  Use this mode for playing classic gamepad games on Windows PCs. Some older titles or emulators may require DirectInput for proper functionality.
• Android (A) Mode:

  This mode is for use with compatible Android devices. Ensure your device supports external gamepads and OTG functionality.

To switch modes, press the X/D/A button. The LED indicator will change to reflect the active mode.
