8. Connection and Installation
Connecting a gamepad to PS4 console
In Bluetooth mode, connect the gamepad to the console with a USB-microUSB cable for initial data transfer. Attention: This cable connection is required only once. Subsequent connections will be wireless, as the console remembers the device ID and automatically establishes a Bluetooth connection. Hold the PS button; upon successful connection, the indicator will light up one color. A PS4 console supports up to 7 devices simultaneously, whether wired or wireless.
Connecting a gamepad to PS3 console
The gamepad operates only in wired mode with the PS3 console. Connect the gamepad using a USB-microUSB cable for data transfer. Press the PS button on the gamepad after connecting the cable; the console will automatically connect the gamepad.
Connecting a gamepad to PC
Attention! The gamepad works with a PC exclusively via a USB-microUSB cable. Wireless mode is only supported with the PS4 console.
- Connect the gamepad via USB cable to an available USB port on your PC.
- Windows OS will automatically detect the pointing device and install the driver.
- To test and configure the gamepad, navigate to "Devices and Printers" in the Windows control panel. The gamepad will be displayed as "Wireless controller". Right-click the device icon and select "Gaming device parameters" (administrator rights may be required). The "Game devices" window will appear.
- Pressing the "Properties" button allows you to check command execution by pressing buttons and rotating the analog sticks (LS and RS). The "Restore" button resets the device to its default settings.
LED indication
- When the controller is connected to the charging station, the LED indicator lights up for approximately 8 seconds and then turns off.

- In standby mode, the indicator glows orange.
- When charging in standby mode, the indicator is orange and turns off once the battery is fully charged.

Connecting a headset
The gamepad features a headset connector with a 3.5 mm jack plug. The headset functionality is supported only in conjunction with the PS4 console, in both wired and Bluetooth modes.
