MAKCU API

KM Host Protocol — v3.9 · Comprehensive command reference for the MAKCU ecosystem.

Last updated 2026-10-02 · V4.073 official API compatibility update · Firmware version & capability matrix →

Legacy connection compatibility · V4.073

V27/V29 are not V4.027/V4.029. Use the USB2 CH343 serial port, 8N1, no flow control; probe 4000000 and 115200 separately and close competing tools. Baud commands cannot work at a mismatched rate.

Probe with km.version() plus a line ending. V27/V29 echo the queried line; current firmware returns km.MAKCU and a prompt. Parse the result line and consume the prompt instead of matching the whole reply. Enable streams only after discovery.

V4.073 adds km.baud() and km.baud(115200/4000000/0), one argument at a time; zero selects 115200. Binary 0xA4 returns four-byte little-endian applied baud. Reopen and verify at the new rate; the saved boot rate is unchanged. Earlier versions lack these queries.

Existing version/echo replies are preserved. km.serial, km.info, km.help and km.catch_* remain unsupported and must not be mandatory handshake commands. Software tests pass; third-party applications and physical serial adapters remain unverified.

Firmware V4 (V4.0xx): differences from this page

This page documents the V3.x firmware (V30 and the AIO-tool era). Units updated with MAKCU Toolkit (formerly the diagnostic tool) run V4.0xx firmware, which has a smaller km.* text command set; everything else goes through the binary API and the web app (app.makcu.com).

Available on V4: version, device, echo, buttons, left, right, middle, side1, side2, move(x,y), wheel, move_mask, wheel_mask, left_mask … side2_mask, down, up, init, press, string, isdown, multidown, multiup, multipress, mask, remap, keys, stream, controller, controller_state, controller_mask, controller_physical; from V4.026 also click, moveto, getpos, screen, silent, lock_*. move_now / moving are not "available since V4.028": the V4.030 line (V4.030/031/033) has move_now, moving, flick and ms1/ms2; the V4.032/V4.035 endpoint line has none of them; the V4.036 default line restores only move_now; moving and ms1/ms2 return in V4.039, and flick has not returned to the default line.

No V4 text equivalent: axis, bypass, catch_*, disable, fault, help, hs, info, invert_x/y, keyboard, led, log, mo, mouse, pan, reboot, release, remap_button, serial, swap_xy, tilt, turbo. To block physical input use move_mask / wheel_mask / *_mask / mask.

Reply format (V4.018+): a query answers result\r\n>>> , e.g. km.version() → km.MAKCU, as on V3.x; with km.echo(1) the command is repeated first. Button queries (V4.020+): km.left() etc. answer 0 none / 1 physical / 2 injected / 3 both. The text km.buttons stream differs by firmware: V30 sends a 0x53 event frame; V4.024/026/032/035 send a bare 1-byte mask per change; the V4.030 line and V4.036+ send mode 1/2 = 6B 6D 2E ("km.") + mask + 0D 0A (CRLF), and mode 3 = a bare byte. Clients that scan for the "km." prefix miss the bare-byte builds.

Controllers (V4 only): stick +Y is down for every family; V4.008–V4.023 also flipped the Y axis of generic HID controllers (e.g. SCUF Envision) by mistake, fixed in V4.024. Polling rate: the MAKCU runs full-speed USB, so any mouse or 8K receiver passes through at up to 1000 Hz.

V3 mouse commands (V4.026+): km.lock_* (the same state as the *_mask commands), km.click, km.screen, km.getpos, km.moveto and km.silent. The pointer position is tracked on the km.screen virtual screen (default 1920×1080, centred when set) from every mouse report sent to the PC and clamped at the edges; Windows pointer acceleration makes it drift, as on V3.x. km.moveto accepts the V3 segment and control-point arguments without using them; km.silent moves to the point, left-clicks and moves back by the same distance (the V4 reading of the V3 description). Mouse injection interpolate: spreads km.move over several reports. V4.036 defaults to 50% (about 4 ms up to 25%, 17 ms at 50%, 42 ms at 80% at 1000 Hz); from V4.039 the default is 0 (sent in the next report, V3 timing). km.move_now (next-report send) is available from the V4.036 default line; km.moving() (answers 1 while injected movement is still being sent) exists only on the V4.030 line and from V4.039, not on V4.032–V4.038. From V4.028: controllers through MAKCU no longer expose USB audio (speaker, headset jack, microphone, USB haptics); rumble and adaptive triggers are unaffected.

MAKXD firmware (0.2.0+): behaves like MAKCU V4 here: queries answer result\r\n>>> and repeat the command only with km.echo(1) (earlier MAKXD firmware always repeated it); km.left()…km.side2() answer 0–3 and text km.buttons(1) streams one mask byte per change; stick +Y is down on every controller family, including the axis mask modes (earlier MAKXD passed Xbox-protocol/XInput Y through, positive up); mouse/keyboard-to-controller translation is off by default, also on devices upgraded without saved settings; third-party Xbox-protocol (GIP) and XInput pads are recognised by their interface, and generic HID controllers take their right stick and triggers from the report descriptor, with any 16-bit range. MAKXD version numbers: up to V24 they are Vn; from 0.1.0 major.minor.patch, reported as major×10000 + minor×100 + patch (0.2.0 is 200), so numeric comparisons with the old releases keep working.

From V4.036 (binary): adds 0x55 PHYS_BUTTONS (read the physical mouse-button mask), 0x56 INJECT_SNAPSHOT (read a 40-byte injected-state snapshot), 0x67 move_now (send a move in the next report) and 0x34 mouse-history read (signal analysis) — read-only / injection queries for a host bridge and diagnostics.

Do not mix the two binary protocols: the "V2 API (Binary)" on this page is the legacy AIO/MAKXD binary protocol; the V4 firmware binary interface is MAK_API (the DE AD | LEN | CMD | PAYLOAD frame), a different opcode space — hitting V4 with a legacy opcode fails. The full per-opcode payload/reply tables, the stability promise and per-firmware availability are in the firmware version & capability matrix.

Legacy API (ASCII)

All replies start with km. and end withCRLF followed by the prompt>>> .
TX samples below show the final prompt as\r\n>>> .
RX (Host → Device)
  • Command format: Start with . and end with ). The km. prefix is no longer required.
  • Other values (such as km, \r\n, etc.) are ignored. Example: .move(1,1,)
  • Optional binary frame: DE AD <lenLE:2> <ASCII or binary payload>
TX (Device → Host)
  • Format: km.payload\r\n>>> (the km. prefix is retained for compatibility)
  • Setters echo the input as ACK unless suppressed byecho(0).
  • Some streaming replies carry binary after the km. prefix:km.mouse<8 bytes> andkm.buttons<1-byte mask>. Lines still terminate with CRLF and the prompt.

Complete Keyboard Key Reference

Single character letters are case-sensitive ('a' types lowercase, 'A' types uppercase). Multi-character special keys are case-insensitive ('f1', 'F1', 'ctrl', 'CTRL' all work the same).
Command
press(key)
Description

Complete keyboard key reference table. All keys support HID codes or string names. Single character letters are case-sensitive (lowercase types lowercase, uppercase automatically uses Shift to type uppercase). Multi-character special keys are case-insensitive.

Command
led([target[,mode[,times,delay_ms]]])
Description

Control LED and RGB state for both device and host sides. Supports query, control, and flash functionality.

Query
  • led() - Query device LED state (backward compatible)

  • led(2) - Query host LED state (via UART)
  • Returns: (device,off), (device,on), (device,slow_blink), (device,fast_blink), (host,off), (host,on), etc.
Control
  • led(0) - Turn device LED off (backward compatible)
  • led(1) - Turn device LED on (backward compatible, but conflicts with query - use led(1,1) for explicit control)
  • led(1, 0) - Turn device LED off
  • led(1, 1) - Turn device LED on

Baud Rate Change (Legacy)

Purpose
Set UART baud rate using a binary frame (no ASCII command).
Frame
DE AD <lenLE:2> <cmd:0xA5> <baud_rate:LE32>
Example (115200)
DE AD 05 00 A5 00 C2 01 00

Breakdown: DE AD | 05 00(len=5) | A5 (cmd) |00 C2 01 00 (115200 LE)

Availability
Unusable before V4.039. V4.032 / V4.035 have no handler and return FF. V4.030 and V4.036–V4.038 have a handler, but it requires a payload length of 4 (excluding the command byte), whereas the AIO tool sends the whole len=5 frame, so it is rejected (FF) and eats the first byte of the next command that follows (tk-0454). Fixed and reliably usable from V4.039. V30 / V4.024 / V4.026 do not support the frame.

V2 API (Binary)

All binary commands use the same frame structure. The frame format is explained below, and subsequent command examples show only the command byte and payload data.
RX (Host → Device)
  • Frame format: [0x50] [CMD] [LEN_LO] [LEN_HI] [PAYLOAD...]
  • 0x50 - Frame start byte (fixed)
  • CMD - Command byte (0x01-0xFF)
  • LEN_LO / LEN_HI - Payload length in bytes (little-endian, 16-bit)
  • PAYLOAD - Command-specific data (variable length)
TX (Device → Host)
  • Setters: Return [0x50] [CMD] [LEN_LO] [LEN_HI] [status:u8] where 0x00 = OK (success) and 0x01 = ERR (error)
  • Getters: Return [0x50] [CMD] [LEN_LO] [LEN_HI] [PAYLOAD...] with raw value bytes or structured data
  • Streaming: Return raw HID frame bytes (no text formatting) as [0x50] [CMD] [LEN_LO] [LEN_HI] [PAYLOAD...]
  • Data Types: Multi-byte values use little-endian byte order. Example: Query baud rate (command 0xB1, no payload) returns [0x50] [0xB1] [0x04] [0x00] [0x00] [0xC2] [0x01] [0x00] where 0x00C20100 = 115200 (little-endian)
  • In subsequent command examples, we show only: [CMD] [PAYLOAD...]
