# STEP 3: Controller Setup

Identify whether your controller is USB-only, Bluetooth-compatible, or requires a wireless adapter (e.g., some Xbox® controllers or the Astro® C40).

## WIRED HEADSETS:

Due to the wide variety of headsets, controllers, and consoles, full audio compatibility cannot be guaranteed for every configuration. Many USB-connected setups are supported.

**Note:** Wired headsets are not supported over Bluetooth. The controller must be connected to the Zen via USB. For PlayStation 5, connect the headset to the device running the PS Remote Play app.
{% endhint %}

## NINTENDO SWITCH®:

When using a Switch TV Dock, ensure the 15V power supply is connected. Otherwise, the Zen will not power on.

In Handheld Mode, a USB-C OTG adapter is required.

Enable the following setting on the console:\
**System Settings > Controllers and Sensors > Pro Controller Wired Communication: On**
{% endhint %}
