7. Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues and their solutions.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Adapter LED is flashing or not steady blue. | Improper connection or an unauthorized controller is used. |
|
| Keyboard/Mouse input is not recognized. | Incorrect port connection, incompatible peripheral, or loose connection. |
|
| Headset function is not working. | The adapter does not support headset passthrough. | To use headphones, connect them directly to the USB port of the game console or use Bluetooth headphones if supported by your console. |
| Mouse movement feels unnatural or like a controller. | In-game sensitivity settings are not optimized. | Maximize "view sensitivity" and other related aiming options within your game's settings. The adapter's mouse conversion works best with high in-game sensitivity. |
