This guide will provide you with all of the information you will need to setup your C40 TR Controller with your PC or Mac.


From the box, remove:

– C40 TR Controller
– 2.0M micro-USB Cable
– USB Wireless Transmitter


Configuration // Firmware
Before use, this product may require a firmware update.

[1]
Download the ASTRO C40 TR Configuration Software from astrogaming.com/software. Please make sure that you are downloading the C40 TR Configuration Software and not ASTRO Command Center as ACC is not compatible with the C40 TR Controller. 
[2]
Ensure the C40 TR Controller is in Wired Mode.
[3]
Plug the micro end of the micro-USB cable into the C40 TR Controller.
[4]
Plug the USB-A end of the micro-USB cable into an available USB port on your PC or Mac.
[5]
Run the ASTRO C40 TR Configuration Software. You will automatically be prompted to update the firmware of your controller after launching the C40 TR Configuration Software.
[6]
Click on the Update Now button and follow the on-screen prompts to update the firmware on your controller. 
[7]
To update your USB Wireless Transmitter, first disconnect the C40 TR Controller from your PC or Mac.
[8]
Plug the USB Wireless Transmitter into an available USB port on your PC.

[9]
To check for firmware updates, click on the Configuration Wheel located at the top right corner of the software window. Follow the on-screen prompts to update the firmware.
[10]
That’s it! Your C40 TR Controller is ready to go!

Configuration // Wired Setup

[1]
Power on your PC.

[2]
Ensure the C40 TR Controller Mode Switch is set to Wired.

[3]
Plug the micro end of the micro-USB cable into the C40 TR Controller.


[4]
Plug the USB-A end of the micro-USB cable into an available USB port on your PC.

[5]
Your PC will automatically read and install drivers enabling the C40 TR Controller for use.

[6]
That’s it! Your C40 TR Controller is ready to game.

Configuration // Swappable Modules

[1]  
The Analog Stick Modules and the D-Pad Module are removable and swappable.

[2]
Using the C40 TR Tool, unscrew the 4 screws on the Faceplate of the C40 TR Controller. We strongly recommend removing the screws in a star pattern (upper right, bottom left, bottom right, upper left). The screws will remain attached to the Faceplate.

[3]  
When swapping modules, ensure the red line located on the bottom of the module align with the red line located on the controller.

[4]
When the modules are in the desired configuration, replace the controller Faceplate and tighten the screws using the C40 TR Tool in the same star pattern.

[5]  
That’s it, your C40 TR Controller is ready to game!


Configuration
// Re-pairing
In the event your C40 TR Controller becomes unpaired:

[1]
Ensure the C40 TR Controller is powered on and ensure the USB Wireless Transmitter is plugged into a PC.

[2]
Press and hold both the Start and Share Buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds. The C40 TR Controller will then enter into pairing mode. The LED Indicator will blink white once.

[3]
Press and hold the LED Button on the USB Wireless Transmitter for 5 seconds. The Transmitter will then enter into pairing mode. The LED on the USB Wireless Transmitter will flash on white.

[4]
After a few seconds the C40 TR Controller and USB Wireless Transmitter will pair. The USB Transmitter and C40 TR Controller LED will turn solid once pairing is completed.

[5]
That’s it! Your C40 TR Controller is ready to go!
