1. BATTERY INFORMATION
Recharging the Power Pack
Your Receiver has the ability to recharge the Power Pack,
even while you’re playing with another set of batteries. The
recharging process is very convenient, as it’s accomplished
via the PlayStation®2 console, with no AC adapter required.
Simply plug the Power Pack (with the rechargeable batteries
installed) into the front of the Receiver, as pictured under
Features and Controls . The red Charge Indicator LED stays
on solidly while the Power Pack is being charged, and turns
off once the charge is complete. The charging process will
continue to take place as long as the PlayStation®2 remains
on. Note that a 2-hour charge will result in approximately 8
hours of play. For increased battery life, you may turn off the
rumble feature, as described in Section 2.
IMPORTANT: Use only the supplied or equivalent recharge-
able batteries in the Charger. Do not attempt to recharge
standard Carbon Zinc or Alkaline batteries!
Battery Level Indicators
The Battery Level Indicators allow you to keep track of the
remaining battery life at a glance. A fully-charged Power
Pack lights all three green Battery LEDs, as does a cartridge
containing fresh AA batteries. As the batteries begin to lose
strength, the LEDs for the higher levels will turn off, one by
one. When only the first and second green LEDs remain on,
your battery capacity is about 75%, and when only the first
green LED is on, your capacity is about 40%. As soon as the
red Battery LED lights up, you’ll need to replace the batteries
or recharge the Power Pack.
2. ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Using the Pass-Through Port
The Receiver offers a convenient pass-through port, allowing
you to use a DVD remote or another peripheral without
unplugging the Receiver! To make use of this option, remove
the protective cover to reveal the pass-through game port,
and then plug in your peripheral. Note that you cannot plug a
game controller into the Receiver’s pass-through port if you
already have a controller plugged into Port 1 of the Hub, as
described below.
Attaching Game Controllers
You may use any combination of controllers (e.g., 2 pads, a
pad plus a joystick or a wheel, etc.), but only a maximum of 2
game controllers can be attached at any one time. Please
note the following configuration choices:
• Both game controllers may be plugged into the Hub, in
Ports 1 and 2.
