I know the x box controller is not a " professional" MPG pendent but not every one has 300 dollars lying around to throw on a accessory. In my case I was able to buy the wireless MPG but there will be someone down the road that encounters this issue and if I can get a fix and share it on the DIY forum maybe I can help someone out in the long run. The reason I got acorn because it is a DIY I enjoy solving problems like this all I need is a little help not suggestions to spend more money . If I could get some insight on why this code ( message ) shows up I could maybe back track and find the source to maybe apply a fix . Sorry for the vent I just hate when im told oh all you have to do is spend more money.
It seems you are attempting to move an axis without telling the control WHICH axis it is.
Did you search the forums for XBOX?

Have a closer look at what Marc (cncsnw) is suggesting in the 3rd thread! He is well versed with Centroid's PLC and accustomed with many, niche-type problems, like yours!

Just a quick update I had another post here on this forum and a suggestion was made to check Parameter 962 needed to be changed to either a 1 or 0 . I opened the parameter page to 962 and it was defaulted to 3 so I changed it to a 1 and z axis works so if anyone has this issue in the future may want to check this parameter 962
