现代游戏机上没有电线是为了方便起见,但如果有东西干扰了设备的无线信号,它可能会导致连接问题。鉴于大多数 Xbox 控制器通过蓝牙(Bluetooth)连接,玩家与控制台的距离有限。
如果您的 Xbox 控制器不断断开连接,请尝试以下修复之一。您需要做的最后一件事是您的连接在激烈的多人游戏中掉线。
1. 靠近控制台
您是否可能坐得离控制台太远?建议的无线控制器最大范围(maximum range of wireless controllers)为 19 英尺或大约 6 米。大多数人会在这个距离内保持良好状态,但如果您坐在离Xbox较远的地方(例如在投影仪上玩游戏),则可能会导致连接出现问题。
2.检查电池
如果你的控制器快死了。如果是,它可能会在没有警告的情况下断开连接或关闭。检查屏幕上的电池指示灯。如果电池电量低,请为控制器充电或更换电池。
最好每两天至少插入一次可充电控制器,具体取决于您的游戏时间,以确保在您想坐下来玩游戏时电池永远不会没电。
3. 重启控制器
虽然大多数人通过菜单关闭他们的控制器,但可以手动关闭它。按住控制器中央的宝石大约五秒钟,直到它不再亮起。等待 15 秒,然后再次按下宝石重新打开控制器。
4.重新配对控制器
如果重启没有帮助并且您的 Xbox 控制器仍然断开连接,您可以再次将控制器与 Xbox 配对。请务必阅读Xbox网站上的支持文章(support article)以找到其他控制台上的按钮。
- 按住控制台前面的配对(Pair)按钮,直到指示灯开始闪烁。
- 按住控制器背面 的配对按钮,直到宝石开始闪烁。(Pair)
- 当控制器和控制台上的指示灯同步闪烁时,表示控制器已配对。
您可以一次将现代Xbox控制器与两个不同的设备(two different devices)配对,但如果您将它们从一个控制台移动到另一个控制台,有时会出现问题。尝试修复控制器并测试一段时间,看看它是否断开连接。
5. 使用有线连接
如果控制器继续断开连接,请考虑使用更长的USB电缆将控制器连接到 Xbox。这使您可以在游戏时舒适地坐着,而不必担心无线连接会中断。
如果您有可充电电池组,则在玩游戏时插入控制器(plugging in your controller)还有为它充电的额外好处。这是一个简单的修复,但不是最方便的。不过,当您在玩游戏时,又不想因为控制器故障而冒险输掉比赛时,USB数据线会带来一点不便。
6.更新控制器固件
如果您更新固件已经有一段时间了,那么控制器本身可能是问题所在。好消息是您可以轻松更新固件。
- 打开Xbox 设置(Xbox Settings)菜单。
- 选择设备(Devices )>附件(Accessories)。
- 通过选择配置(Configure)下方的三个点来选择您的控制器。
- 选择立即更新(Update Now)。
- 选择继续(Continue)。
您的Xbox会将更新应用到您的控制器。完成此过程可能需要几分钟,但之后,您应该尝试使用控制器来查看此修复是否阻止了Xbox控制器断开连接。
7. 更新 Xbox
如果您更新控制器固件(controller firmware),请确保您也花时间更新控制台。虽然Xbox大部分时间会自动执行更新,但有时您需要检查更新。
- 打开Xbox 设置(Xbox Settings)菜单。
- 选择系统(System )>更新(Updates)。
- 选择更新控制台(Update console)。
- 选择开始更新。(Start Update.)
在大多数情况下,您永远不需要手动执行控制台更新。大多数更新会自动发生,或者您会在需要更新时看到通知。如果您在 Xbox 主机断开连接时开始遇到错误,最好检查一下设备是否需要更新。
8.更换控制器
如果一切都失败了,如果你有技术技能,你可以尝试通过打开它来修复控制器,但更换它并购买一个新的可能更容易。尽管微软(Microsoft)声称其控制器应该可以正常使用十年或更长时间,但轶事证据表明许多玩家遇到了保险杠问题、充电问题等等。
如果您的控制器被丢弃了太多次,或者您只是花了很多时间使用它,那么可能是时候投资购买一个新的控制器了。可以这样想:它为您提供了利用新Xbox 设计实验室(Xbox Design Labs)模式的借口。
连接(Connectivity)问题并不是什么新鲜事,尤其是在Xbox Series X上。尽管功能强大,但许多游戏玩家发现他们的控制器在游戏过程中或控制台关闭时会随机断开连接。如果您遇到这种情况,请尝试以下八种解决方案之一来纠正问题。
FIX: Xbox Controller Keeps Disconnecting
The lack of cords on modern consoles is a boon for convenience, but it can lead to connectivity issues if something interferes with the devices’ wirеless signal. Gіven that most Xbox controllers сonnect through Bluetooth, players have a limited rаnge awаy from the consоle.
If your Xbox controller keeps disconnecting, try one of the following fixes. The last thing you need is your connection dropping in the middle of an intense multiplayer game.
1. Move Closer to the Console
Is it possible you’re sitting too far from your console? The recommended maximum range of wireless controllers is 19 feet or roughly six meters. Most people will stay well within that distance, but if you’re sitting far away from the Xbox (like playing on a projector), it might cause trouble with your connection.
2. Check the Battery
If your controller is almost dead. If it is, it might disconnect without warning or shut down. Check the battery indicator on-screen. If the battery level is low, charge the controller or replace the batteries.
It’s a good idea to plug-in rechargeable controllers at least once every two days, depending on your playtime to ensure the batteries are never dead when you want to sit down and play games.
3. Power Cycle the Controller
While most people turn off their controller through the menu, it’s possible to turn it off manually. Press and hold the jewel in the center of the controller for roughly five seconds until it’s no longer lit. Wait 15 seconds and turn the controller back on by pressing down the jewel once more.
4. Re-Pair the Controller
If power cycling doesn’t help and your Xbox controller still keeps disconnecting, you can pair the controller with the Xbox again. Be sure to read the support article on the Xbox site to find the button on other consoles.
- Press and hold the Pair button on the front of the console until the light begins to flash.
- Press and hold the Pair button on the back of the controller until the jewel begins to flash.
- When the light blinks in sync on both the controller and the console, it means the controller has paired.
You can pair modern Xbox controllers to two different devices at once, but if you move them from console to console, sometimes problems arise. Try repairing the controller and testing it for a while to see if it disconnects.
5. Use a Wired Connection
If the controller continues to disconnect, consider using a longer USB cable to connect your controller to your Xbox. This allows you to sit comfortably while you game without worry that your wireless connection will drop.
If you have a rechargeable battery pack, plugging in your controller while you play has the added benefit of charging it. It’s an easy fix but not the most convenient one. Still, when you’re in the middle of a game, and you don’t want to risk losing because of a faulty controller, a USB cable is a small inconvenience.
6. Update the Controller Firmware
If it’s been a while since you’ve updated your firmware, the controller itself might be the problem. The good news is that you can easily update your firmware.
- Open the Xbox Settings menu.
- Select Devices > Accessories.
- Select your controller by selecting the three dots underneath Configure.
- Select Update Now.
- Select Continue.
Your Xbox will apply the update to your controller. It can take several minutes to complete this process, but afterward, you should try playing with the controller to see if this fix stopped the Xbox controller from disconnecting.
7. Update the Xbox
If you update your controller firmware, make sure you take the time to update the console too. While the Xbox will perform updates automatically most of the time, there are occasions when you need to check for updates.
- Open the Xbox Settings menu.
- Select System > Updates.
- Select Update console.
- Select Start Update.
In most cases, you will never need to perform a console update manually. The majority of updates happen automatically, or you’ll see a notification when an update needs to happen. If you begin to experience errors with your Xbox console disconnecting, it’s a good idea to check and see if the device needs an update.
8. Replace the Controller
If all else fails, you can try to repair the controller by opening it up if you have the tech skills, but it might be easier just to replace it and purchase a new one. Although Microsoft claims its controllers should last for ten years or more of regular play, anecdotal evidence shows many players experience bumper issues, charging problems, and more.
If your controller has been dropped a few too many times or you just spend a lot of time using it, it might be time to invest in a new controller. Think of it this way: it gives you an excuse to take advantage of the new Xbox Design Labs patterns.
Connectivity issues are nothing new, especially with the Xbox Series X. Despite its power, many gamers find their controllers randomly disconnect during play or when the console is turned off. If this happens to you, try one of these eight solutions to correct the problem.
