Gaming on Xbox

Your XIM MATRIX supports Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles.

Connect Devices

First connect your devices to your XIM MATRIX.

Authentication Controller

You'll need to connect a genuine Xbox Series, One, or Elite controller to USB Port 3 (●●●) of your XIM MATRIX. This is your authentication controller required to run on your console.

Note

You will need to supply the USB cable that matches your controller. This cable is not included.

Input Devices

Connect your wired supported input devices to USB Port 1 (●) and Port 2 (●●), such as:

Wired Mouse and Keyboard

Wireless Mouse and Keyboard

Warning

When gaming with a wireless mouse, you may need additional setup to ensure performance of both your mouse and XIM MATRIX.

Wired Controller

Wireless Controller

Info

Wireless controllers, can be paired after your XIM MATRIX is connected to your Xbox.

Connect To Xbox

Make sure your Xbox is powered on and then using the included USB A to C cable (or one you supplied yourself), connect your XIM MATRIX to your Xbox.

Your XIM MATRIX will turn on and display its startup rainbow sequence.

If you don't yet have an Xbox Config on your XIM MATRIX, you'll need to create one now.

Creating an Xbox Config

To connect to your Xbox, you must have a Config that has your XIM MATRIX output as an Xbox controller.

Load XIM MATRIX Manager and create a new Config by pressing the vertical "..." on the top right and selecting New Config:

Shared Configs

You can add a shared Config such as from the XIM Config Cloud library by copying the Config to your clipboard and then selecting it.

Tip

Make sure the review and follow any notes from the creator of the Config you are using.

Custom Configs

To build a custom Config, press Custom.

Select the game you are playing and the platform:

Next, choose your inputs and outputs. For an Xbox Config, the output must be Controller (Xbox, PS4).

Press "New" to create your Config. It may take up to 30 seconds for your Config to be created.

Required Game Settings

When a new Xbox Config is added to your XIM MATRIX, you may be reminded that you must set your game's in-game sensitivity to maximum (aim sensitivity is then customized in your Config).

Or, if you are a controller gamer (and the game has support for it), aim is customized in your game and settings are copied to your Config.

In all cases, there may be additional game-specific setting requirements you will need to follow. The rest of the settings should be remain at default.

Warning

Failure to configure your game's required settings correctly will result in negative aiming performance and the inability to effectively share and use Configs from others.

If you need to check required in-game settings at a later time, press the gear icon on Manager's main screen.

Completed Connection

As your XIM MATRIX works to connect to your Xbox, it will quickly blink white twice repeatably.

When your XIM MATRIX successfully connects to your Xbox, you will see a green connection dot in Manager.

And, your XIM MATRIX will quickly flash green upon successful connection as well.
