the game console.
Directional Pad:
The D-pad controls the direction in which the character
moves. This is the primary directional control while in Digital Mode.
Analog Sticks: The two analog sticks each control two axes (X-and Y-axis).
Different software titles will allow you to modify the way that the analog sticks react
in the games. While in Analog Mode, any software title that is Vibration Function
Compatible will cause the Lynx to vibrate at different levels, depending on actions
taking place from within the game (e.g., being hit, crashing, or shooting).
NOTE : NOT ALL GAMES ARE VIBRATION FUNCTION COMPATIBLE. LOOK FOR THE
“VIBRATION FUNCTION COMPATIBLE” ICON ON THE BACK OF THE PACKAGE OR
INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR THE GAME THAT YOU ARE PLAYING.

their specific functions depend on the software being used.
Action Buttons (

various actions, depending on the software. For more details, see the software
instruction manual.

for pausing the game. For more details, see the software instruction manual.

the lighted Mode button tells you which mode you are in:
Analog Controller Mode - RED light will turn ON
This is the standard “Dual Shock™” mode. Some games will only vibrate if the

This is the original PlayStation controller mode. This is the default control mode.

POWER SAVE MODE
The Lynx comes with a switch that will turn off the controller to save batteries
when not in use. This switch is located between the two controller handles. It is
advised that when you are not using the controller for prolonged periods of time,
that you turn the controller off.
Sleep mode
When not in use, the Lynx controller will enter a “sleep mode” in order to save
battery life In order to bring the controller out of sleep mode, you could do either
of the following steps to “wake” up the controller
- press start button
MULTIPLE CONTROLLERS
If you want to use two or more Lynx controllers at the same time (as in multi-player
games or with the Mad Catz PS2 Multi-Port™), simply plug the controllers into the
game system as you normally would and begin play. You don’t need to set any
buttons or switches. The Lynx uses AUTOMATIC CHANNEL RECOGNITION and
AUTOMATIC ID RECOGNITION to automatically avoid most controller interference
conflicts.

WITHOUT a Multi-Port:
1. Insert the game disk and turn on your console.
2. Insert the Antenna Receiver for the first controller into the Player-1 Controller port
on the game console.
3. Confirm the link between first Antenna Receiver and first Lynx by using the
ENGLISH
controller to see if it works in the game or game menu.
4. Insert the Antenna Receiver for the second Lynx into the Player-2 Controllerport
on the game console.
5. Confirm the link between second Antenna Receiver and second Lynx controller
by using the controller to see if it works in the game or game menu.
When you play in the multi-player mode WITH a Multi-Port:
If you want to play with the Multi-Port, you should set each controller in the same
way as listed above – Plug in and confirm each controller one by one.
