The Cyclone 2 has two Bluetooth modes: HID (amber) for Android and DS4 (blue) for iOS and Windows. Pick the mode button that matches your device, confirm the HOME color, then complete pairing from the device's Bluetooth menu. Bluetooth has slightly higher latency than the 2.4G dongle, which is best for PC.

FAQ

Bluetooth or the 2.4G dongle for PC?
For lowest latency on PC use the 2.4G dongle (XInput, green). Bluetooth (DS4, blue) works too but the dongle is the recommended wireless mode for gaming.
Can it stay paired to several devices?
Each mode keeps its last paired host. To move to a new device, re-pair with HOME + SHARE for 2 sec, then connect from the new device.
