# Elios 1 Tablet not connecting to the remote controller

The GCS is mounted (tablet and controller ON and connected with the USB cable). If the connection status in Elios Cockpit shows the controller blinking, that means you have either a USB cable failure, a tablet’s connector failure or an issue within the Tablet default USB accessory attribution.

**Faulty USB cable**

Try another USB cable and see if it works. If not, it is probably a connectors failure or a software failure.

**Faulty Tablet’s micro USB connector**

Try wiggling the USB plug on the Tablet’s side. If no connection is made, it is probably a software failure.

**Fix the software failure**

1. Disconnect the tablet from the controller and turn off the controller.
2. Go to the application menu and open settings.&#x20;
3. Go to Application > Application manager > cockpit > Set as default > CLEAR DEFAULTS.&#x20;
4. Restart the tablet and wait for it to be fully turned on.
5. Connect the controller to the tablet, then turn on the controller.
6. A dialog box will pop up. Check the case “Use by default for this USB accessory” and tap OK. If instead a list slides up from the bottom side of the screen, tap on “Cockpit”.
