The trigger stopper is a completely mechanical function. You can increase the reactivity of your triggers in two ways:

•  IN CLASSIC MODE: Press and hold the Profile button, then fully press on the trigger.The controller will vibrate once to indicate that the short range travel is selected, and will vibrate twice to indicate that the long range travel is selected. You can then release the trigger and Profile button.

Information about wireless communication

This controller uses 2.4GHz radio frequency range, so you may notice some issues if other products use the same radio frequency range.

Nacon validated operability between the PlayStation®5 console (CFI-1000 series) and this controller.

It is recommended to insert the USB dongle into the USB port at the front of your PlayStation®5 console (CFI-1000 series).

The controller uses Bluetooth 5.2 technology to communicate with Bluetooth® in-ear audio devices or other wireless headsets. In this situation, Bluetooth and RF communication operate simultaneously without interference. It is also possible to connect the external microphone to the 3.5mm jack port for data transmission from the microphone.

If headphones are connected to the jack, audio and microphone data will only be transmitted via the audio jack and Bluetooth will be disabled.

If a wired headset is connected to the 3.5mm jack port, it is not possible to connect or pair a Bluetooth® headset or in-ear headphones to the controller. If you try, the light ring around the Right joystick, will flash Red for 5 seconds to indicate that this action is not recognized.

If in-ear audio devices are connected to the jack port, it will not be possible to pair or connect in-ear headphones or wireless headphones.

Hall effect technology

By using Hall effect technology, which is based on the use of magnetic sensors and magnets, it will prevent friction and mechanical wear on key components. Consequently, the lifespan is greatly increased compared to traditional mechanisms.

Vibration

The controller is equipped with a vibration engine which is only compatible with PC* and PS4™ games. In PS5® mode on PS5® games played on the PS5® console, the controller will not vibrate.

Classic & Advanced modes

Classic mode: your controller will act as a classic DualSense® wireless controller, DUALSHOCK®4 wireless controller, or PC controller.

You can access the following customization options “on the fly” without the need for any App:

•  Mapping of the 4 rear shortcut buttons.

3x LEDs = 60–40%
2x LEDs = 40–20%
1 x LED = 20–10%

NOTE: When the battery level is below 10%, the 1x LED will start to flash.
You need to immediately charge the battery.

To check the battery level in PS5® mode when you are connected via the USB dongle, then go to the PS5® on-screen menu and you will see the battery level in the bottom left of your TV/Monitor screen.

To check the battery level, in PS4 mode or PC mode, tap the back of the controller twice. The White LEDs below the touch pad, will light up. There are 5x LEDs and they indicate the capacity as follows:
