Remapping

Remappable paddles allow you to keep your thumbs on the sticks and engage fingers that are usually passive. May take some time to get used to, but it will shorten your response times and provide you with game-changing milliseconds.

  1. First press the Profile Button until you see the color profile you want to change.
  2. Next, press the Profile Button again, but continue to hold it until the profiles status LED starts to blink.
  3. Now you can remap any of the paddles by holding it down and then pressing the button you want to save. After a successful pairing, the Profile Status Light will turn white, and the controller will vibrate.
  4. Now you can remap any paddle by simultaneously pressing the paddle and the button you would like to remap it to. After a successful pair, the profile status LED will turn white, and the controller will vibrate.
    1. Please note that if your controller is in PC-only high-speed mode while remapping, the profile status LED will turn yellow instead of white.
  5. To save your remapped configuration, simply press the Profile Button. The profile status LED will stop blinking.

To reset all profile mappings back factory settings, press and hold both thumbsticks down for 3 seconds while in remapping mode (profile status LED is blinking).

The profile status LED will pulse white 3 times indicating that all profiles have been returned to factory mappings.

Please note that you can remap every function to the paddles except the Xbox home button and scroller wheel clicks.
To remove a paddle’s input, simply map the share button to the paddle you don’t want to have a function.

Triggers

Valor Pro is equipped with Instant Triggers, perfect for firing off a quick shot at the speed of a mouse click. Simply flip the switch towards the outside of the controller.

To switch the triggers to full throw mode, simply flip the switch the other way.

Please note: The controller’s impulse triggers will auto-disable when the instant triggers are turned on and auto-turn back on when the instant triggers are turned off.

User Customization

Valor comes with removable parts so that you can customize your controller’s look.

Accessories

Want to swap your thumbsticks? Change your D-Pad? Simply, remove your faceplate by gently pulling it from the top, near the bumpers and pull away.

Now you can access your d-pad, anti-friction rings, and thumbsticks.

Keep your look fresh with a new Faceplate, Thumbsticks and Anti-Friction Rings — there are endless combinations available at scufgaming.com.

Interchangeable Thumbsticks

First things first, what are you playing?

For first person shooters, we recommend using your tall thumbstick on the right for precision and accuracy through the scope. Short concaved on the left to dig in for quick, responsive moves. For sports games, stick with your concave sticks, they’ll give you the right balance.

Want to do your own thing? We get it. Remove your faceplate trim and simply pull the thumbsticks away from the shaft. Slide the new one on just as easily. To remove your Anti-Friction Rings, simply push them out from behind the faceplate trim and reverse the motion to reinstall.

Inner Paddles

Valor Pro also comes with inner paddle blanking plates. You can use these if you don’t want to have inner paddles.

To install the blanking plates, you will need to remove the inner paddles first.

  1. To remove the inner paddles, find the finger notch located by the sides of the inner paddles.

2. Using your finger, simply pull away until the inner paddle comes off.

3. Once the paddle is off, install the blanking plate.

Audio Control System

ValorPro_QSG_audiosystem_1000x562

Your controller comes with a dedicated on-board Audio Control System in the form of two audio scroll wheels.

To use the Audio Control System, you’ll need to plug a headset into the 3.5mm aux port on the controller.

The scroller on the left controls game volume while the scroller on the right controls your chat volume.

Pressing the scrollers down will mute audio.

If your headset has a microphone, you can mute and unmute it by simply clicking the right scroller.

When your mic is muted, a constant amber light will be shown on the audio status LED while no light indicates nothing is muted.

The left scroller click mutes and unmutes at the system level meaning that all input and output audio will be muted or unmuted. This includes your headset mic regardless of whether it was muted or unmuted prior to pressing the left scroller click.

A blinking amber light will be shown from the audio status LED when you have system level muted while no light indicates nothing is muted.

Please note:

The audio status LED will only show status when utilizing the scroll wheel clicks. Muting / unmuting audio input or output from other sources will not affect the controller’s audio status LEDs. 

Additionally, the audio scroll wheels do not affect the Windows volume bar when being used on PC and may not have full support with in-game and external chat programs.

1K Polling Mode (PC Only)

To enter 1K Polling mode, ensure that the controller is plugged into your PC and powered on.

While the controller is powered on, simultaneously press and hold the share, menu, and A buttons.

The controller will automatically turn off and then back on.

To exit 1K Polling mode, simultaneously press and hold the share, menu, and B buttons.

Once again, the controller will automatically turn off and then back on.

WARNING: DO NOT USE THIS MODE WHEN PLAYING ON CONSOLE.

Please note that 1K Polling mode only works on PC. Additionally, some games or applications may not support this mode.

Thumbstick & Trigger Calibration

Your controller comes ready to play out of the box, however you can recalibrate your thumbsticks and triggers should you ever feel the need to.

To recalibrate your thumbsticks and triggers you will need to put the controller into recalibration mode.

To enter recalibration mode, ensure that the controller is unplugged and that the triggers are in full throw mode (instant triggers turned off). Then simply press and hold the menu and view buttons while simultaneously plugging the controller into your console or PC.

Please note that the console or PC needs to be powered on.

  1. Once the controller is plugged in, and the audio status LED begins to flash red, you can release the menu and view button.
  2. While the audio status LED is flashing red, push the left and right thumbsticks directly up and let them return to center. Once the thumbsticks have returned to the center press the B button. The audio status LED should now start flashing green.
  3. While the audio status LED is flashing green, push the left and right thumbsticks directly right and let them return to center. Once the thumbsticks have returned to the center press the B button. The audio status LED should now start flashing blue.
  4. While the audio status LED is flashing blue, push the left and right thumbsticks directly down and let them return to center. Once the thumbsticks have returned to the center press the B button. The audio status LED should now start flashing orange.
  5. While the audio status LED is flashing orange, push the left and right thumbsticks directly left and let them return to center. Once the thumbsticks have returned to the center press the B button. Now the profile status LED should start flashing red.
  6. While the profile status LED is flashing red, fully press down and release the left trigger 3 times. Once the trigger has been pressed down 3 times, press the B button. The profile status LED should now start flashing green.
  7. While the profile status LED is flashing green, fully press down and release the right trigger 3 times. Once the trigger has been pressed down 3 times, press the B button. The profile status LED should now start flashing blue.
  8. While the profile status LED is flashing blue, fully rotate both thumbsticks, 360 degrees, clockwise. Once both thumbsticks have been fully rotated clockwise 3 times, press the B button. The profile status LED should now start flashing orange.
  9. While the profile status LED is flashing orange, fully rotate both thumbsticks, 360 degrees, counterclockwise. Once both thumbsticks have been fully rotated counterclockwise 3 times, press the B button. The profile status LED should now start flashing purple indicating that calibration has been saved.

Please note that the controller will reset. If the controller does not power on automatically, simply press and hold the nexus button until the LEDs turn on.

Please note:

  1. If you feel you have made an error at any point during the recalibration process, please continue and complete the calibration steps and then re-enter and re-run the recalibration process again.
