I ordered a EMS-9110 and not a EMS-9113 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WBYFX24?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details
I plugged it and paired it as the 1F tutorial video showed. and it does nothing at all none of the buttons do anything.
Did I screw up, and this one plain won’t work, or is there something I can try?
I plugged it into my laptop and Windows recognized it just fine so the joypad is functional.
You can see the differences in the two models here.
The major difference is one is hard-wired and USB powered and the other is wireless and powered by a pair of AA batteries. Looking at both manuals they function the same and changing modes is the same.
Per the manual the gamepad should initialize in Xinput more (LEDs 1 & 2 on).
This is supposedly the mode we need for the Onefinity controller (RPi) connection.
To change modes press and hold the Home button for 5 seconds to jump to the next mode. Each subsequent press and hold of the home button will cycle to the next mode in this order:
LEDs 1&2 Xinput (default mode)
LEDs 1&3 Dinput emulation mode
LEDs 1&4 Dinput digit mode
LEDs 3&4 Android mode
Controls layout
The manual gives no explanation as to the differences between the modes.
For me, my ESM-9013 gamepad initializes in Android mode with LEDs 3&4 lit. I cycle through the modes to get to Xinput mode and everything works as it should as far as controlling X,Y, and Z on the CNC. When the gamepad goes to sleep (which the manual does not talk about at all) and I then want to use it so press any button to wake it up it reverts back to Android mode (LEDs 3&4) and I have to change modes again back to Xinput mode. But if you hold the button down a little too long it jumps right past the next mode and goes to 1&3 or 1&4, which means you have to try again to get to the default mode.
Here are the relevant pages from the ESM-9013 manual enlarged to a readable size.
Return it and try https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B086PSGYL7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Cheaper and it worked for me w/o any issues.
Enjoy,
The one I got, the EMS-9110 is a wireless model as well.
I found the manual on their website, it shows LEDs 1 and 4 should be on for Xinput mode. Which is default But nothing works in that mode on mine if I change it to 2 of the other modes, then x and y work, but the speed buttons are all mis-mapped, and Z does nothing.
I think I will just return it and order the correct one. 
Thank you for your help, it got me closer.
Your welcome. Glad I was of some help.
Sorry for the problems you’re having.
Still trying to figure mine out too.
