Wireless Joystick and Redline controller

Has anyone gotten the official Onefinity wireless gamepad to work with RedLine?

I have tried numerous attempts, same result.

It just fails to detect and fails to work.

When the machine boots I receive these errors which I believe is related to the issue

I’ve read elsewhere that you need to insert the USB dongle several times and maybe if the planets are properly aligned, it may work.

Using RedLine Firmware: 1.4.18

What happens if you plug in the dongle after the HMI is booted up?

Nothing.

I go to the joypad tab on hmi and it says NONE in the selection field.no other devices listed. The DETECT button as far as i can tell is dead. When pressed, no feedback of any kind is given…it just doesn’t do anything.

I’ve tried the inplug - replug method with the dongle multiple times…useless.

Tried rebooting with dongle plugged in first, tried rebooting with dongle plugged in after boot, same result.

Not to be obvious, but is the joypad powered up? Mine has a short sleep setting which means it’s off when I power up the OF. I have to turn it on & then do the dongle in/out to pick it up. But then it works until I shutdown even though the joypad goes to sleep & then reawakens when I do something with it again.

Yes, it’s powered up.

The dongle has an indicator that lights as soon as power becomes available to the USB port

The joypad itself has the lighted blue segmented buttons.

I’ve tried all the tricks I’ve found online in various places and I can’t get it to connect for anything.

It worked fine with the BB controller…matter of fact, I used the joypad most of the time over any other method of jogging.

For it to be labeled as compatible, you shouldn’t have to resort to all kinds of gymnastics to get it to work.

True that. I haven’t checked to see if yesterday’s firmware update does anything. In a lot of ways the BB was more consistent & reliable but I don’t know if that’s because it was more mature before I got the JMan initial release (they had the WW out for awhile before adding the larger JMan) or if I’m pushing the envelope harder since the RL Foreman should be more capable.

I have the same problem. Never had it even detected. I just gave up.
