# Bragi-Protokoll — Reverse-Engineerte Dokumentation
# Bragi Protocol — Reverse-Engineered Documentation
Dieses Dokument beschreibt das Corsair Bragi HID-Protokoll, wie es von neueren
Corsair-Wireless-Geräten (HS80 RGB Wireless, etc.) verwendet wird. Reverse-Engineered
aus USB-Traces und den Python-Probes in `~/Projects/hs80-battery/`.
This document describes the Corsair Bragi HID protocol used by newer Corsair
wireless devices (HS80 RGB Wireless, HS65, Virtuoso SE, etc.). Reverse-engineered
from USB traces and protocol analysis.
## Übersicht
## Overview
Bragi kommuniziert über HID Feature Reports auf **Interface 3** des USB-Receivers.
Jedes Paket ist 65 Bytes (1 Byte Report ID + 64 Bytes Daten).
Bragi communicates via HID Feature Reports on **Interface 3** of the USB receiver.
Each packet is 65 bytes (1 byte Report ID + 64 bytes data).
## Paketformat
## Packet Format
### Request (Host → Gerät)
### Request (Host → Device)
```
Byte 0: 0x00 — HID Report ID
Byte 1: 0x02 — Protokoll-Marker (immer 0x02)
Byte 1: 0x02 — Protocol marker (always 0x02)
Byte 2: Endpoint — 0x08 = Receiver, 0x09 = Headset (via Receiver)
Byte 3: Command — 0x01 = SET, 0x02 = GET
Byte 4: Property — Property-ID (siehe unten)
Byte 5+: DatenBei SET: die zu setzenden Werte
Rest: 0x00-gepaddet auf 65 Bytes
Byte 4: Property — Property ID (see below)
Byte 5+: Data For SET: the values to write
Rest: 0x00-padded to 65 bytes
```
### Response (Gerät → Host)
### Response (Device → Host)
```
Byte 0: 0x01 — Report-Typ (immer 0x01, NICHT 0x02 wie im Request)
Byte 1: Endpoint — 0x00 = Receiver, 0x01 = Headset (andere IDs als im Request!)
Bei Fehler: 0xF0/0xF1 = Error/Not Supported
Byte 0: 0x01 — Report type (always 0x01, NOT 0x02 like the request marker)
Byte 1: Endpoint — 0x00 = Receiver, 0x01 = Headset (different IDs than request!)
On error: 0xF0/0xF1 = Error/Not Supported
Byte 2: Command — Echo: 0x01 = SET, 0x02 = GET
Byte 3: Status — 0x00 = OK
Byte 4+: Daten — Property-Wert (typisch uint16 Little-Endian in Bytes 4-5)
Byte 4+: Data — Property value (typically uint16 Little-Endian in bytes 4-5)
```
**Achtung:** Das Response-Format weicht vom Request-Format ab:
- Byte 0 ist `0x01` (nicht `0x02` wie der Request-Marker)
- Endpoint-IDs sind `0x00`/`0x01` (nicht `0x08`/`0x09` wie im Request)
**Note:** The response format differs from the request format:
- Byte 0 is `0x01` (not `0x02` like the request marker)
- Endpoint IDs are `0x00`/`0x01` (not `0x08`/`0x09` like in the request)
**Fehler-Erkennung:** Byte 1 == 0xF0 oder 0xF1 bedeutet, dass die Property nicht
unterstützt wird oder der Request ungültig war.
**Error detection:** Byte 1 == 0xF0 or 0xF1 indicates that the property is not
supported or the request was invalid.

## Initialisierungssequenz
## Initialization Sequence
Das Gerät muss in den Software-Modus versetzt werden, bevor Properties gelesen werden
können. Die vollständige Sequenz:
The device must be switched to software mode before properties can be read.
Full sequence:
### Phase 1: Receiver initialisieren
### Phase 1: Initialize Receiver
1. **Wake-Up:** `GET App Firmware` an Receiver (0x08)
- Weckt den Receiver auf und bestätigt Kommunikation
2. **Software-Modus:** `SET Mode = 0x02` an Receiver (0x08)
- Schaltet Receiver in Software-Modus
3. **Heartbeat:** `GET Product ID` an Receiver (0x08)
- Bestätigt dass Receiver im Software-Modus antwortet
1. **Wake-up:** `GET App Firmware` to Receiver (0x08)
- Wakes the receiver and confirms communication
2. **Software mode:** `SET Mode = 0x02` to Receiver (0x08)
- Switches receiver to software mode
3. **Heartbeat:** `GET Product ID` to Receiver (0x08)
- Confirms receiver responds in software mode
### Phase 2: Headset initialisieren
### Phase 2: Initialize Headset
4. **Software-Modus:** `SET Mode = 0x02` an Headset (0x09)
- Schaltet Headset in Software-Modus (via Receiver)
5. **Flush:** HID-Puffer leeren (nonblocking reads bis leer)
6. **Heartbeat:** `GET Product ID` an Headset (0x09)
- Bestätigt dass Headset erreichbar ist und antwortet
- Keine Antwort = Headset ausgeschaltet/nicht verbunden
4. **Software mode:** `SET Mode = 0x02` to Headset (0x09)
- Switches headset to software mode (via receiver)
5. **Flush:** Clear HID buffer (non-blocking reads until empty)
6. **Heartbeat:** `GET Product ID` to Headset (0x09)
- Confirms headset is reachable and responding
- No response = headset powered off / not connected
### Cleanup
Nach allen Abfragen **müssen** beide Geräte zurück in den Hardware-Modus:
After all queries, both devices **must** be switched back to hardware mode:
7. `SET Mode = 0x01` an Headset (0x09)
8. `SET Mode = 0x01` an Receiver (0x08)
7. `SET Mode = 0x01` to Headset (0x09)
8. `SET Mode = 0x01` to Receiver (0x08)
**Wichtig:** Ohne Cleanup bleibt das Gerät im Software-Modus und verhält sich
möglicherweise nicht normal (z.B. keine automatische Abschaltung).
**Important:** Without cleanup the device stays in software mode and may not
behave normally (e.g. no automatic power-off).
## Wert-Extraktion
## Value Extraction
Für uint16-Werte: Little-Endian aus Response-Bytes 4 und 5:
For uint16 values: Little-Endian from response bytes 4 and 5:
```
value = response[4] | (response[5] << 8)
```
Für Batterie: Wert ist in Promille (0-1000), Division durch 10 ergibt Prozent.
For battery: value is in per-mille (0-1000), divide by 10 for percent.
## USB-Identifikation
## USB Identification
- **Vendor ID:** 0x1B1C (Corsair)
- **Product ID:** 0x0A6B (HS80 RGB Wireless)
- **Interface:** 3 (HID Control Interface)
Andere Bragi-Geräte verwenden dasselbe Protokoll mit unterschiedlichen Product IDs.
Other Bragi devices use the same protocol with different Product IDs.
