GENIUS MaxFire Grandias 12V - Manual (Page 2)

ENGLISH
Software Installation (for MaxFire Grandias 12V only)
- Install the software first before you install the Grandias12V.
- If you don’t want to install the driver, the Grandias12V will work without the vibration function.
1. Insert the Grandias12V driver CD into your CD-ROM; wait for a few seconds for your PC to load the disc.
2. If your system is setup to automatically read a new CD, then the auto run program is executed and the
opening installation screen appears. Please follow the on-screen instructions.
3. If your system doesn’t launch the installation software automatically, you can locate the file in the directory of
your CD drive and click on it, then follow the on-screen instruction to install the Grandias12V software.
4. Upon completing the software installation, restart your PC.
Hardware Installation
1. Install the Grandias game pad to a USB port on the PC or a USB Hub.
2. After connection, the “Find a new hardware” message appears and the standard USB driver will be located
for you to finish the easy installation and play games immediately.
3. If the game pad is properly plugged to your PC but does not work with your game, go to the Game Controllers
page and select “Advanced “ page to check whether the USB, 2-axis 8-button game pad ID is “Joystick 1” or
not. Note: When there is only one game controller connected to your PC, this game pad must be “Joystick 1”
so it works properly.

Importance & Attention
1. Make sure your software supports the Game Controller/Joystick.
2. Not every game requires all functioning buttons. If you find some buttons do not work inside the game, please
check the game settings again.
3. The function of the game pad buttons may vary in different games. Before proceeding to game settings from
the OPTION inside the game, always read your game’s manual carefully to set the best game settings.
