First-time connection with the PC

The NACON GC-100XF is a so-called Plug´n´Play device. This means that the necessary driver

software should be installed automatically if you connect it to your computer for the fi rst time.

Here are the steps in detail:

• Turn on your computer, wait for it to boot and log in to your Windows desktop.

• Look for an unused USB slot on your PC and plug in the USB cable of your NACON GC-100XF

controller.

• Windows will detect the new device and after a few seconds it will start the installation process

for the appropriate drivers. This is shown by a small icon in the taskbar.

• The installation might take a while depending on the speed of your system. Once the installation

is complete, you will be presented with the according message. You can now use your GC-100XF.

D/X button

There are diff erent ways for modern computer games to communicate with your controller

and vice versa. Your GC-100XF supports the two most commonly used ones: DirectInput8

and XInput.

Sometimes a game only supports one of these two protocols. Since both can´t be run

simultaneously, your GC-100XF features the D/X button (10) to switch between these two

protocols, to make sure it works with all games.

The blue LED's around the MODE button (9) indicate the current status:

• All LED's lit (full circle) indicates XInput to be used

• Partially lit LED's indicate that the DirectInput8 protocol is active

Remark: After changing the protocol, the controller needs some short time to switch, indicated by the lights

turning off. Once lit again, it´s fully functional with the selected protocol.
