For low-latency 2.4G play on PC, plug in the bundled USB dongle, slide the rear mode switch to 2.4G, and press HOME to power on. The Xbox light runs while searching and goes solid once connected. The controller and dongle are paired out of the box; if they lose each other, hold the pairing button to re-enter pairing. On Xbox the G7 Pro must be used wired.
