4.1 Button Layout (PC Version)

The FightBox B1-MINI-PC features a standard all-button leverless layout. Refer to the image below for the button assignments in PC mode.

FightBox B1-MINI-PC Button Layout for PC

Image 4.1: Button assignments for the FightBox B1-MINI-PC in PC mode. The red buttons on the left are directional inputs (Up, Down, Left, Right), with an additional red button for Jump/Up. The black buttons on the right are action buttons (Y, R1, L1, X, B, R2, L2, A). Small black buttons on the top left are HOME, MODE, L3, and on the top right are START, SELECT, R3.

  • The DOMOV button is used to switch between PC360 mode (default) and other modes.
  • The MODE button is used to switch between the cross keys (D-pad) and the left/right stick inputs.

4.2 SOCD Modes

The controller supports three different Simultaneous Opposing Cardinal Directions (SOCD) modes, which determine how conflicting directional inputs are resolved. This is crucial for competitive play and tournament compliance.

SOCD Modes Table

Image 4.2: Table illustrating the three supported SOCD modes: Up priority, Neutral (CAPCOM), and Last win. It shows how conflicting inputs (e.g., Left + Right, Up + Down) are resolved in each mode.

  • Up Priority SOCD Mode (Default): When Up and Down are pressed simultaneously, Up is prioritized. When Left and Right are pressed simultaneously, both inputs are canceled, resulting in Neutral.
  • Neutral (CAPCOM) SOCD Mode: When opposing directions (Up + Down or Left + Right) are pressed simultaneously, both inputs are canceled, resulting in Neutral.
  • Last Win SOCD Mode: The last directional input pressed takes precedence. For example, if Left is held and then Right is pressed, Right will be the active input.

To switch between SOCD modes, refer to the specific key combinations or software utility provided by FightBox (if applicable, check official FightBox website for advanced settings).

  3. Gently pull the switch straight up until it detaches from the PCB.
