4.2 Turbo Function

The Turbo function allows a button to be pressed repeatedly as long as you hold it down. This controller supports both manual and automatic Turbo modes. Consult the specific instructions for setting up Turbo on your controller, typically involving pressing the Turbo button along with the desired action button.

4.3 Macro Function

The Macro function allows you to record a sequence of button presses and assign them to a single button (e.g., the M1/M2 buttons on the back). This can be used for executing complex combos or repetitive actions with ease. Refer to the detailed instructions in the manual for recording and assigning macros.
