# TASOLLER Custom Firmware (Host MCU - Application ROM) See [Development](./Development.md) for development information. Yes, the code is a mess. I just wanted to get something onto git y'know :). ## Setup ### Installing Firmware - Disconnect the PC cable from the TASOLLER - Hold down the FN2 button, while reconnecting the PC cable - `HOSTMCU` should show as a device - Use `Update V1.1.exe` from official firmware updates to load the firmware Currently, Dao CFW is required on the LED board. This is controlled by `LED_FIRMWARE_CFW` in `src/led.h`. ### Configuring segatools This firmware emulates arcade IO. As such, segatools' emulation should be disabled, by adding the following lines: ```ini [slider] enable=0 [io4] enable=0 ``` Ensure no other `[slider]` section exists in the file (or if it does, set `enable=0` there instead). The slider **MUST** be assigned to port `COM1`. To do this: - Go to `Devices and Printers` in control panel - Double click `TASOLLER` - In the `Hardware` tab, double click `USB Serial Device` - If this already reads `USB Serial Device (COM1)` nothing needs done - Click `Change settings` - Go to `Port Settings` -> `Advanced...` - Under the dropdown for `COM Port Number:` select `COM1` If `COM1` is already in use, check what device it is assigned to in Device Manager under `Ports (COM & LPT)`. You may need to enable `View` -> `Show hidden devices`. Pre-chusan Chunithm uses IO3. This firmware does not (and unfortunately cannot) support IO3. It is recommended to enable the HID keyboard mode, and continue to use keyboard input for IRs. ## Controls ### General Tap FN1 to insert a coin. FN2 is currently unbound. ### Configuration Hold FN1 for configuration: - Pad 1/2 (cell 0): Left tower colour - Pad 3/4 (cell 1): Ground colour - Pad 5/6 (cell 2): Ground colour when pressed, and separator colour - Pad 7/8 (cell 3): Right tower colour - Pad 9/10 (cell 4): No function - Pad 11/12 (cell 5): Toggle rainbow effect on/off - Pad 13/14 (cell 6): Increase/decrease ground brightness - Pad 15/16 (cell 7): Increase/decrease tower brightness - Pad 17/18 (cell 8): No function - Pad 19/20 (cell 9): System volume up/down - Pad 21/22 (cell 10): Holds Enter for 5 seconds (insert Aime card) - Pad 23/24 (cell 11): No function - Pad 25/26 (cell 12): Increase/decrease sensitivity - Pad 27/28 (cell 13): No function - Pad 29/30 (cell 14): No function - Pad 31/32 (cell 15): Toggle HID keyboard mode ### Test menu To enter the system test menu, double-tap FN2. This will mirror the on-screen controls, and additionally adds controls for the TEST and SERVICE buttons on a real cabinet. Double-tap FN2 again to leave this mode on the controller (note that this is not synced with the game exiting the menu!). Cell 6 and 7 are the TEST button, and cell 8 and 9 are the SERVICE button. To access the TEST and SERVICE buttons without entering the test menu, hold FN2 instead. ## Keyboard Mapping When the HID keyboard is enabled, the following mapping (UMIGURI defaults) is used: ``` I8U7Y6T5R4E3W2Q1 9KMJNHBGVFCDXSZA ``` with the airs mapped as `0OLP,.`. Please note that this is slightly different to stock firmware!
