4.2 Assigning Back Paddles (Command Slide)

The two back paddles can be assigned to replicate any other button on the controller (A, B, X, Y, RB, LB, RSB, LSB).

4. While holding the paddle, press the button on the front of the controller that you want to map to the paddle (e.g., 'A' button).
5. Release both buttons, then slide the Command Slide switch back to the 'Lock' position. The paddle is now assigned.
6. Repeat for the other paddle if desired.

The trigger stops allow you to reduce the travel distance of the LT and RT buttons, providing a quicker response for actions like shooting in first-person shooters.

• Flip the switch to engage the trigger stop for a shorter trigger pull (e.g., 2mm).
• Flip the switch back to disengage the trigger stop for a full trigger pull (e.g., 8mm), suitable for racing games or actions requiring analog input.
