Initial Remote Controller Setup

First Power-On: Press and hold the power button until the screen activates. The controller has a 20,000mAh internal battery providing 6-20 hours of operation time.

Ethernet Connection: Use the WAN port for direct wired internet connection, providing the most stable data link.

USB Cellular Modem: Connect a USB cellular modem through the OTG port for internet access in remote locations.

Bluetooth Tethering: Share internet from your smartphone via Bluetooth connection.
