A closer look at Arc Vector Pad Ink

Vector Pad Ink is designed for a computer that explicitly supports USB or Bluetooth HID gamepad input. It is not an Orbit console pad despite a familiar two-stick layout. The rechargeable controller provides a 24-hour illustrative planning figure and a supplied data cable, allowing a wired setup when wireless pairing would complicate the session.

Start with USB on a declared Vela computer and inspect button mapping inside the chosen application. A recognised controller still needs software support for its controls and vibration. Switch to Bluetooth only after a wired test works, and keep the ink pad distinct from a white Vector if both are present.

How should it be prepared before a session?

Start with USB on a declared Vela computer and inspect button mapping inside the chosen application. A recognised controller still needs software support for its controls and vibration. Switch to Bluetooth only after a wired test works, and keep the ink pad distinct from a white Vector if both are present. The stated 24-hour figure is illustrative and varies with vibration and use.
