Big Button Pad Buttons

The big button works not only as expected— as a button—but as a directional pad as well. Use this button and the A, B, X, Y, Back, Xbox Guide, and Start buttons to move around and control the Xbox Dashboard, just as you would with your wired or wireless controller.

Wired and Wireless Controllers

The Big Button Pad does not interfere with the existing connections of wired or wireless Xbox 360 controllers. You may even use connected wired or wireless controllers along with the Big Button Pads for team gameplay.

For example, if you have a wireless controller assigned to quadrant 1 in the Ring of Light, both the wireless controller and the green Big Button Pad affect the green player in the game. Likewise, the second wired or wireless controller corresponds to red, the third to blue, and the fourth to yellow.

nOTE

Team gameplay is supported on a game-bygame basis.

CLEANING YOUR BIG BUTTON PADS

Clean only with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Using cleaning solutions or attempting to clean connectors may damage your Big Button Pads.

Always remove batteries before cleaning.
