6. Changing Lighting Effects

The controller comes with 4 pre-programmed lighting effects:

• Static: RGB lights remain solid in a chosen color.

You can also change and customize lighting effects in the free PDP Control Hub app. Additional effects include:

• Ripple: RGB lights radiate outward from analog sticks to controller grips with a set color, brightness, and speed.
• Pulse: RGB lighting slowly fades in and out with brightness changes (first pulse bright, then weaker, then fades out completely).

[Note] Additional lighting effects will be added via firmware updates. Ensure your controller firmware is up to date.
