Motion Control

Twist On/Off: how does it work, and what’s the best sensitivity?

Quick answer

When the saber is off, twist the hilt clockwise then counter-clockwise to ignite. The same motion extinguishes it. App default sensitivity is 500 for ignition, 780 for extinguish. Higher sensitivity is more sensitive.

How to use

  1. Hold the saber firmly.
  2. Twist the hilt a quarter turn clockwise.
  3. Immediately twist back a quarter turn counter-clockwise.
  4. The blade ignites.
  5. Repeat the motion to extinguish.

Sensitivity

Default in the Xeno Configurator app is 500 (ignition) / 780 (extinguish) out of 0-1000. Lower values = less sensitive. The default is good for most users — adjust if you find it too eager or too sluggish.
