Cyborg evo Wireless User Manual

Getting Started

Features:

Battery

Your Cyborg evo Wireless uses one AA alkaline battery (supplied) which should give up
to 50 hours of use. To fit the battery, open the battery compartment on the bottom of
your joystick by sliding back the cover. Insert the AA battery in the direction shown and
replace the cover.

LED power status

The Saitek Cyborg evo Wireless features an LED (Light Emitting Diode) on the top of the
stick which shows how much power is left in the battery. A green light means there is
between 20-80% of power remaining; amber means there is between 10-20% power
remaining; and red means there is less than 10% power and you will soon have to
replace the battery.

Plugging in the wireless receiver

Unclip the wireless receiver (or dongle) from the bottom of the evo Wireless joystick and
plug into one of your computer’s USB ports.

Sleep mode

Your Cyborg evo Wireless features a sleep mode to conserve battery life. After ten
minutes of no activity, the stick will power down and the head LED will switch off. Press
any of the buttons to wake the stick.

Scan Button

In certain circumstances, there may be interference to the signal between your stick and
the wireless receiver dongle in your computer caused by other wireless devices nearby.
To switch to an interference-free wireless channel, press the scan button on the
underside of your stick once.

Radio frequency

The Cyborg evo Wireless operates at a frequency of 2.402 – 2.480 GHz

Installing joystick driver software

Important note: Calibrating your joystick

The Saitek Cyborg evo Wireless stick uses a dynamic auto-calibration system, which is
designed to give you more accurate control. To maximise the effectiveness of
calibration, ensure that the stick is moved fully forwards, backwards and to both sides
after booting up your PC and before loading up your game.
