PS360+ Defaults to Xbox360 mode on PC reboot - help?
« on: June 26, 2015, 09:59:16 pm »
So I finally got my control panel built with the PS360+ cards.  Everything was fine until I rebooted. 

Windows 7 64bit OS.  On reboot the PS360+ cards set themselves to Xbox 360 mode (which puts two of the buttons into a combined axis - completely useless).  The fix is to unplug the USB cable, hold P1 button, plug back in and they set to PS3/PC mode, and everything is fine. 

Everything I've read says they're supposed to work the opposite - PS3 is the default mode, and you have to force it into XBox 360 mode.  I've updated the firmware to the latest (v1.66).

Anyone have any thoughts on the matter?

thanks

Hm, mine always go to 360 mode after I first plug them in and do a reboot. But then again, I have a xbox 360 that in my cabinet.

They're supposed to do an automatic detection. So strange.

I contacted Akishop support directly, and was given a new firmware HEX file to load onto the devices. Resolved the issue.

Amazing customer support!

I have the same issue with my PS360+ board as described in this thread. I wrote an email to Akishop but didn't get an answer. Does someone here have this "new firmware HEX file"? Thanks
