Custom

Custom V1.1

This firmware requires the cypress base firmware prior V2.01 (the firmware you have to update using the UART cable). Once you updated everything to V2.01, this version of the custom firmware can still be uploaded but doesn't work correctly. It will still show the rainbox lights once the controller is powered and booted, but slider inputs are not working.

• Distribution package
• Instructions
• Fixed chuniio.dll: Use this one instead of the chuniio.dll provided with the distribution package. It fixes incorrect light mappings.

Custom V2.0

This firmware requires the cypress base firmware V2.01 (the firmware you have to update using the UART cable).

• Distribution package
• Instruction: Inside distribution package

USB chipset incompatibility

There are known issues with incompatible USB chipsets. The root-cause is currently unknown.

Once you updated to the custom firmware, either V1.1 or V2.0, the device shows up as I SAY NYA-O in the device manager. However, on further inspection, it shows that the device is not working correctly.

Potential mitigations:

• Try different USB ports on your motherboard
• Try a different motherboard/computer
• Buy a USB PCI expension card that is known to be compatible and connect the controller to one of the USB ports of that card

Known compatible hardware

• ULANSeN 7-Port PCI-E to Type C (2), Type A (5) USB 3.0 Expansion Card with 2 Rear USB 3.0 Ports PCI Express Card

Known incompatible hardware

Troubleshooting

Using the custom firmware, the USB device shows as not working under device manager
