A PlayStation 2 controller macro device.
This is a middleman between a standard PlayStation 2 controller and the console. It can also be chained through to a USB adapter or other such device, to ultimately let an original PS2 controller work with a computer.
Unfortunately, this has an limited number of button presses that it can do! I think it's 9 or 10.
The original instructions are unclear, so here is my revision.
Note that settings will survive a system reboot or poweroff.
Turbo buttons ∞
- Press and hold
PROGon the device. Press
◯- Note that
◯will be issued through to the console.
- Note that
Now when pressing ◯ it will press it quickly. If you hold ◯ it will keep triggering it.
This turbo function can be set for ◯, ✕, L1 or R1. Note that the documentation is wrong about △ and □ -- Those cannot be turned into turbo buttons. Second note: The original documentation mentions L3 and R3, but those buttons don't exist on a PS2 controller.
Disabling a turbo button ∞
To disable this turbo, repeat the process:
- Press and hold
PROGon the device. Press
◯- Note that
◯will be issued through to the console.

Now when you press R it will issue the macro ⇧ ⇧ ⇩ ⇩. Notice how it has also exactly copied the timing. It has also copied the timing of how long the buttons were pressed.
- Note that all buttons are ignored while the macro is playing.
To interrupt a macro while it's being played, press

Note that this macro toggling is independent of turbo buttons. You can choose to disable all macros, yet still have turbo buttons.
Speed macros ∞
These macros are issued as quickly as turbo buttons. This functionality is independent of basic macros: You can have a basic macro assigned to one button, and a speed macro assigned to another one.
They are created the same as basic macros, with one adjustment at step 4.
- Press and hold
PROGon the device. Press
R2- Just like normal macros, speed macros can be assigned to
L2,R2,□or△.

Macro mirroring ∞
The left/right nature of a macro can be reversed. So if you made a macro which goes ⇦ ⇦ ⇦ ⇨ ⇨ ⇨, you can make it to the reverse (⇨ ⇨ ⇨ ⇦ ⇦ ⇦).
Press ⇦ then the macro button. ⇦ is issued to the console.
How to Program? ∞
Press and hold the button PROG on the converter first, and then press any of L2, R2, L3, R3, △ or □ on your PS2 Controller.
Examples ∞
1. Set Macro function for the button R2 (Real Time REC Mode). ∞
Step 1: Press and hold the button "PROG" and "R2". The LED 2 will light up. (Enter into the Real Time REC Mode).
Step 2: Press the buttons ⇨ ⇘ ⇩ ⇙ ⇦ L1, L2 that you wish to set the Macro for.
Step 3: Press the button "PROG" again. The LED 3 will be turned off.
Step 4: The button "R2" will work as ⇨ ⇘ ⇩ ⇙ ⇦ L1, L2 if you press R2 now. The LED 2 will light up, which means that the R2 has the Macro function.
Step 5: Press and hold the button "PROG" and "R2" again, the LED 3 will light up once more. Release the two buttons, and only press "PROG" now, you'll find that the LED 3 is turned off. It means that the Macro function of R2 is cancelled.
Note: The button value and the time that the button is pressed and released will be memorized under the Real Time REC Mode.
2. Set Macro function for the button R2 (Normal REC Mode). ∞
Step 1: Press and hold the button "PROG" and "R2". The LED 3 will light up. (Enter into the Real Time REC Mode).
Step 2: Press the button SELECT on your controller. The LED 1 will light up. (Enter into the Normal REC Mode. You can switch the two modes by pressing the SELECT button).
Step 3: Press the buttons ⇨ ⇘ ⇩ ⇙ ⇦ L1, L2 that you wish to set the Macro for.
Step 4: Press the button "PROG" again. The LED 1 will be turned off.
Step 5: The button "R2" will work as ⇨ ⇘ ⇩ ⇙ ⇦ L1, L2 if you press R2 now. The LED 2 will light up, which means that the R2 has the Macro function.
Step 6: Press and hold the button "PROG" and "R2" again, the LED 1 will light up once more. Release the two buttons, and only press "PROG" now, you'll find that the LED 1 is turned off. It means that the Macro function of R2 is cancelled.
Note: The Macro speed can be adjusted under the normal REC mode.
- Press and hold "
PROG" first, and then pressD-Pad UP: The Macro speed will be slower. - Press and hold "
PROG" first, and the [sic] pressD-Pad Down: The Macro speed will be faster. Press "
PROG" + "SELECT": The Macro and Turbo speed will be back to the default one.
Extra Macro instructions ∞
1. Press the button you previously set Macro for to enter into the Macro function. You can press the button PROG to close the Macro function when you are playing.
2. Double press the button PROG to open or close the Macro function of the converter. The L2,R2,L3 and R3 work as the normal buttons and can't be set for the Turbo function once you close the Macro function of the converter. But the buttons △ and □ can be set for the Turbo button.
3. The left and right direction in the Macro function can be switched. For example, if you set the Macro of L2 for ⇨ ⇘ ⇩ ⇙ ⇦, automatically the converter will convert Macro to ⇦ ⇙ ⇩ ⇘ ⇨ when you press ⇦ + L2. In this case, when you exchange the position in the game, you can still use the previous Macro function.
How to Set the Turbo Function? ∞
Press and hold the button PROG on the converter first, and then press any of L1, R1, △, ◯, ✕, □ on your PS2 Controller.
1. Example: Set the Turbo function for the button L1
Step 1: Press and hold the button PROG and L1. The LED will flash.
Step 2: Press and hold the button L1, the LED 2 will keep flashing, which means that the L1 has the Turbo function.
Step 3: Press and hold the button PROG and L1 again, the LED 2 will flash once more. Now you've cancelled the Turbo function of L1.
2. Adjust the Turbo speed.
- Press and hold "
PROG" first, and then pressD-Pad Right: The Turbo speed will be slower. - Press and hold "
PROG" first, and the [sic] pressD-Pad Left: The Turbo speed will be faster. Press "
PROG" + "SELECT": The Macro and Turbo speed will be back to the default one.
3. If you set the Turbo function for the button START, it works as the Auto-fire function. You can press PROG + START to open or close the Auto-fire function of the button START.
