Connecting to an Xbox 360

The CronusMAX PLUS LED Display will now show the Authentication 'AU' Animation.

Connect your Wired Xbox 360 Controller to the CronusMAX PLUS

Connect your wired Xbox 360 Controller into the Input Port of the CronusMAX PLUS.

After a couple of seconds the display on the CronusMAX LED will go from the Authentication 'AU' Animation to 0 (or a number if slot recall is enabled and a script was previously loaded). If the Display does not change from showing AU, check the List of Compatible Controllers to make sure your Xbox 360 Wired Controller is valid for Authentication.

WARNING

If the LED on the CronusMAX PLUS does not change from AU to a number then the authorization controller is not authenticating. 9/10 we find that this means the Xbox 360 Wired Controller is not compatible for authentication purposes, you should try another one. Also make sure the controller is powered on of course - that's a rookie mistake.

Disconnect your Wired Xbox 360 Controller from the CronusMAX PLUS

Once the display on the CronusMAX PLUS shows a number, disconnect your Wired Xbox 360 controller from the CronusMAX PLUS.

The CronusMAX PLUS LED Display will now show the spinning Standby animation.

Connect your Crossover Controller to the CronusMAX PLUS

Connect your Wired Controller of choice into the Input Port of the CronusMAX PLUS. If it's an Xbox One or DualShock 4 Wireless Controller use a full data Micro-USB Cable.

Ready to Use

After a couple of seconds the display on the CronusMAX LED will go from the spinning Standby Animation to 0 (or a number if slot recall is enabled and a script was previously loaded) - indicating that the controllers are authorized and you're ready to play. At this point you can use your controller through the CronusMAX PLUS and also load any scripts or GamePacks. It's that simple!

WARNING

If you are using an Xbox One or DualShock 4 Controller with a Micro USB cable and the LED on the CronusMAX PLUS changes back to AU then the Micro USB Cable is probably faulty or not compatible. Try another and make sure it is full data and not just a charging cable.
