1. Insert the 2.4GHz USB-A wireless dongle into an available USB port on your PC, Android TV, or Steam Deck.
2. Power on the BEITONG Asura 2 controller. The controller will automatically attempt to connect to the dongle.
3. Once connected, the indicator light on the controller will stabilize, indicating a successful connection.
4. If the connection is not established, ensure the dongle is properly inserted and the controller is powered on. You may need to press the home button on the controller to initiate pairing.

4.3. Connecting via Wired Mode

To use the controller in wired mode, simply connect the USB-A charging cable from the controller to a USB port on your PC or compatible device. The controller will automatically switch to wired mode and be ready for use.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1. Power On/Off

• Power On: Press the central Home button to turn on the controller.
• Power Off: Press and hold the central Home button for approximately 5 seconds until the indicator lights turn off. The controller will also automatically power off after a period of inactivity to conserve battery.

5.2. D-Pad and Joystick Function Switching

The [SHIFT] button allows you to interchange the functions of the D-Pad and the left analog joystick. This is particularly useful for games that benefit from specific input methods, such as fighting games or sports simulations.

1. During gameplay, press the [SHIFT] button located near the center of the controller.
2. The controller's indicator light may change or flash briefly to confirm the switch.
3. Test the D-Pad and left joystick to confirm the function swap.

5.3. Turbo Function

The Turbo function enables rapid, repeated input of a button press by holding down the assigned button. This can be advantageous in games requiring quick, successive button presses.

1. Press and hold the [TURBO] button.
2. While holding [TURBO], press the action button (e.g., A, B, X, Y, LB, RB, LT, RT) you wish to assign the Turbo function to.
3. Release both buttons. The assigned action button will now activate Turbo mode when pressed.
4. To disable Turbo for a specific button, repeat the process: press and hold [TURBO], then press the previously assigned action button.

5.4. Dual Vibration Feedback

The controller's dual vibration motors provide tactile feedback that corresponds to in-game events, such as impacts, explosions, or engine rumble. This feature is automatically active when supported by the game and the controller is connected.

5.5. Linear Trigger Operation

The LT and RT triggers are designed to provide a linear response, meaning the amount of pressure applied directly correlates to the input value. This allows for nuanced control in games where precise acceleration or braking is required.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the controller. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Storage: Store the controller in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Battery Care: To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the controller frequently. Charge it regularly, even if not in constant use.

7. Troubleshooting

7.1. Controller Not Connecting/Disconnecting Frequently

• Ensure the 2.4GHz USB-A dongle is securely inserted into a working USB port on your device.
• Verify the controller is powered on and fully charged.
• Try inserting the dongle into a different USB port.
• Move the controller closer to the dongle to rule out interference or range issues.
• Restart your PC or device and attempt to reconnect.
• If using on PC, ensure necessary drivers are installed. Windows typically installs generic gamepad drivers automatically.

7.2. Buttons or Joysticks Not Responding Correctly

• Test the controller in wired mode to determine if the issue is related to wireless connectivity.
• Ensure no debris is obstructing the buttons or joysticks.
• Calibrate the controller through your operating system's game controller settings (e.g., Windows Game Controllers).

7.3. Vibration Not Working

• Check if the game you are playing supports vibration feedback.
• Ensure vibration is enabled in the game's settings or your device's controller settings.
• Verify the controller is fully charged.
