4. Operation

4.1 Using the Interactive Display Screen

The interactive screen allows for direct adjustment of controller settings without external software. Press the 'H' button for 3 seconds to enter the menu. Navigate using the D-pad and confirm selections with the 'A' button. Use 'B' to go back.

Figure 4.1: The interactive display screen allows for easy adjustment of settings like dead zones, vibration, and button layouts.

• Settings: Adjust vibration intensity, joystick dead zones, trigger sensitivity, and lighting effects.
• Program: Configure the four programmable back buttons (M1, M2, N1, N2).
• Layout: Switch between Xbox and Switch button layouts.
• Calibration: Calibrate joysticks, gyro, and triggers if needed.

4.2 Programmable Back Buttons

The GUSGU G7 features four programmable back buttons (M1, M2, N1, N2) located on the underside of the controller. These can be assigned to single button presses, sequences, or macros via the interactive screen's "Program" menu. This allows for quick execution of complex commands during gameplay.

4.3 Hall Effect Joysticks and Adjustable Dead Zones

The Hall Effect joysticks provide precise, drift-free control. Dead zones can be customized from 0% to 50% using the interactive screen to match your preference and game requirements. A smaller dead zone offers more immediate response, while a larger one can prevent unintended inputs.

4.4 Hall Effect Dual-Stage Triggers

The triggers feature a dual-stage mechanism, allowing you to switch between short-pull for quick actions (e.g., shooting in FPS games) and full-pull for precise control (e.g., acceleration in racing games). This can be configured through the interactive screen.

4.5 Motion Control (6-Axis Gyro Sensor)

The built-in 6-axis gyroscope provides precise motion sensing for games that support tilt or motion-based controls. This enhances immersion in titles requiring realistic steering, aiming, or flight mechanics.

4.6 Vibration Feedback

Dual asymmetric vibration motors provide four levels of haptic feedback, accurately replicating in-game events such as impacts, explosions, or engine rumble. Vibration intensity can be adjusted via the interactive screen.
