Connecting to an Xbox 360

Set Output Protocol

Follow the instructions here to correctly connect your CronusMAX PLUS to a PC via the PC PROG port using the supplied Mini-USB Cable.

Load Cronus PRO and go to Tools > Options > Device

Set the Output Protocol to XB360.

These are also the recommended default Speed Up Settings for Xbox One Controllers. Rumble Over Bluetooth is disabled as it's not being used.

You can now close the Options window and disconnect your CronusMAX PLUS from your PC.

Connect the CronusMAX PLUS to your Xbox 360

Connect the CronusMAX PLUS into one of your Xbox One USB ports via it's Output Port.

The CronusMAX PLUS LED Display will now show the Authentication 'AU' Animation.

Connect your wired Xbox 360 Controller to the CronusMAX PLUS

Connect your wired Xbox 360 Controller into the Input Port of the CronusMAX PLUS.

After a couple of seconds the display on the CronusMAX LED will go from the Authentication 'AU' Animation to 0 (or a number if slot recall is enabled and a script was previously loaded). If the Display does not change from showing AU, check the List of Compatible Controllers to make sure your Xbox 360 Wired Controller is valid for Authentication.

WARNING

If the LED on the CronusMAX PLUS does not change from AU to a number then the authorization controller is not authenticating. 9/10 we find that this means the Xbox 360 Wired Controller is not compatible for authentication purposes, you should try another one. Also make sure the controller is powered on of course - that's a rookie mistake.

Disconnect your Xbox 360 controller from the CronusMAX PLUS

Once the display on the CronusMAX PLUS shows a number, disconnect your Wired Xbox 360 controller from the CronusMAX PLUS.

The CronusMAX PLUS LED Display will now show the spinning Standby animation.

Remove any Xbox One Controller Batteries

Remove any batteries or charger pack from your Xbox One Controller (if it has them).

This is a very important step or the controller will not authorize correctly.

Ready to Use

At this point you can use your controller through the CronusMAX PLUS and also load any scripts or GamePacks. It's that simple!
