Hi,

I just bought a Gigamesh and cannot get it to respond to the controller.
(Troubleshooter fails at "Testing controller")

I suspect a hardware fault, but before contacting customer services I'd want to
ask two questions.

1. If I just switch on the spybot, without connecting it to the PC, should it
react to the controller buttons (controller dial is turned to the left) ?

2. The troubleshooter says there should be a LED blinking in the controller
when it is switched to "action mode" (dial to the right). I do see the
blinking, but it seems very faint/dim to mee. Is that normal or should it be
bright?


Thanks!
Alex
