Orion Forge Inputs

An Orion Forge Initiative

Engineering Notes

Research

Technical notes from Orion Forge Inputs research, including HID communication, keyboard controller behavior, RGB testing, and firmware investigation.

Controller Identification

SINO WEALTH controller confirmed.

VID: 258A

PID: 051B

Mechanical keyboard platform under investigation.

Known HID Interfaces

Col02

Col04

Col05

Col06

Multiple hidden interfaces discovered.

Current Status

USB traffic captured.

Packet injection confirmed.

Output Report ID 0x04 writable.

Protocol mapping in progress.

Research Findings

USBPcap and Wireshark captures successfully identified writable HID communication channels. Custom packets can be transmitted to the keyboard without causing device failure, confirming the presence of accessible firmware-controlled functionality.


Testing has confirmed successful output report transmission through Report ID 0x04. While the exact meaning of individual bytes remains unknown, command injection is functioning and active research is focused on determining how lighting effects are encoded.
