Read full description

The MOCUTE tool supports all MOCUTE-VT versions of the handles to set parameters such as the handles, keystrokes and rockers on the iOS phone. Once the settings are saved, they can be manipulated according to the parameters that are configured. When using the tool, first connect the wireless name of MOCUTE-VT, then set the required parameters and save them to the MOCUTE handle. Tools support configuring multiple profiles, but only one configuration can be saved to the handle at a time. The saved configuration will be written to the handle when the handle shuts down, and will not be lost until the next change saves the other configuration again.
