Xbox 360 is a popular game console from Microsoft. This console is now quite popular among gamers, as it is convenient and has excellent technical characteristics. The console is equipped with a wireless game controller or, as it is also called, a gamepad. If you have purchased an Xbox console for yourself, but do not know how to connect a gamepad to a game console, then this guide will help you.
Instructions
Step 1
Press the Guide button on your controller. Hold it until the gamepad and game console work.
Step 2
Just press and release the power button on the console itself. Hurry up to press and release the connect button on the body of the gamepad in twenty seconds.
Step 3
Wait for the indicator lights next to the power button on the console to stop flashing. When they stop blinking, it means the controller is connected.
Step 4
In the event that the controller does not turn on, check if the batteries are working. The controller requires AA batteries. If they don't work, then insert new ones.
Step 5
You can also use special devices to power the controller - the Xbox 360 Play & Charge Kit or the Xbox 360 Quick Charge Kit.
Step 6
Up to four gamepads can be connected to one console. Therefore, if you need to connect more gamepads to the console, repeat all steps for each gamepad. In this case, each of them will be assigned a specific quadrant. There are four indicators around the console power button and the Guide button on the gamepads, which correspond to the quadrants.
Step 7
To disable the controller, press and hold the Guide button for three seconds. Then turn off your controller. If you turn off the console, the controller will reconnect itself the next time you turn it on.
Step 8
Also keep in mind that the gamepad can only be connected to one console at a time, and in the event that you want to connect it to another console, the connection with the first one will have to be interrupted.
Step 9
If the gamepad does not connect, then try the following: 1. Turn off the console, and after a minute, turn it on again
2. Replace the batteries in the gamepad
3. Remove all objects that are between the gamepad and the console, especially if these objects are sources of radiation - microwave ovens, televisions, mobile and cordless home phones, metal and chrome stands, etc. Successful connection and successful games!
