Joystick Modules: When swapping joystick modules, handle them carefully to avoid damage to the internal components.

Odpravljanje težav

Težava	Možen vzrok	rešitev
Krmilnik se ne vklopi.	Prazna baterija ali nič polnjenja.	Connect the controller to a power source using the USB-C cable and allow it to charge for at least 30 minutes before attempting to power on.
Cannot connect wirelessly (2.4GHz or Bluetooth).	Incorrect mode selected, pairing issue, or interference.	Ensure the connection mode toggle switch is set to the correct mode (2.4GHz or Bluetooth). For 2.4GHz, ensure the USB dongle is securely plugged into the device. Za Bluetooth se prepričajte, da je Bluetooth v vaši napravi omogočen in da je krmilnik v načinu seznanjanja. Poskusite znova zagnati tako krmilnik kot gostiteljsko napravo. Move closer to the host device to reduce interference.
Vibration not working or weak.	Vibration setting too low, game incompatibility, or hardware issue.	Check the vibration intensity settings in the controller software or game settings. Prepričajte se, da igra podpira vibracijske povratne informacije. Če težave ne odpravite, se obrnite na podporo strankam.
Zamik igralne palice ali netočen vnos.	Joystick calibration needed or module issue.	Perform joystick calibration using the controller's software. Ensure joystick modules are correctly seated. If using swappable modules, try a different module to see if the issue is specific to one.
Trigger input issues (e.g., constantly pressed).	Trigger lock setting or hardware issue.	Check the trigger lock switches on the underside of the controller and ensure they are in the desired position. Calibrate triggers using the controller's software. Če težave ne odpravite, se obrnite na podporo strankam.
