Summary

Fixes the DPI read-back on ATK mice behind a generic receiver, where a mouse that shows the right DPI wired reads a nonsense value (e.g. 80) through the 8K dongle-L.

Refs #264. Same root cause as #74 (generic low-DPI encoding used on an unregistered model).

Problem

Reported on the 8K dongle-L (373b:1278, firmware Mouse 5.20): wired shows 900 DPI, through the dongle it shows DPI 80 with stages [80]. Polling, lift-off and battery read correctly, so only the DPI decode is wrong.

Root cause

AtkHidClient.sensorKey() picks the DPI codec. It resolves the sensor from the hand-built ATK_PRODUCTS entry for the CID/MID, then from the generated catalog looked up by USB vendor/product id. A wired mouse resolves through its own USB id. A mouse behind a receiver enumerates under the receiver's USB id (373b:1278 is a generic receiver: true entry in ATK HUB and is not in the catalog), so the lookup finds nothing, sensorKey() returns null, and the generic Ultra codec (code + 1) * 10 decodes bytes that belong to another sensor.

The driver already reads the paired mouse's CID/MID (command 0x10) on connect. It only used it to choose among catalog entries that already shared the receiver's USB id.

Change

src/drivers/atk/products.ts

  • atkCatalogDevice: when the USB id is absent from the catalog and a CID/MID is known, fall back to the CID/MID and return a descriptor only if exactly one model has it. A USB id that is in the catalog but ambiguous still returns undefined, as before.
  • New atkCatalogSensorForCidMid: returns the sensor when every catalog model sharing a CID/MID has the same sensor, otherwise null. CID/MID is not unique (36 shared pairs), so a pair whose models disagree (e.g. 2,5: PAW3395 vs PAW3311) deliberately stays on the generic codec instead of guessing.

src/drivers/atk/hid.ts

  • sensorKey() falls back to atkCatalogSensorForCidMid(this.cidMid) after the product and catalog lookups. Precedence is unchanged.

Tests

Added to src/drivers/atk/hid.test.ts. Both fail on main and pass with this change.

  • Dongle-L (0x1278) with paired mouse CID/MID 2,77 (ATK X1 SE NK, PAW3395SE) and a PAW3395SE-encoded stage row reads dpi 900, dpiY 900, dpiStages [900].
  • Resolution rules: 2,77 gives PAW3395SE; 1,2 (two models, same sensor) gives PAW3950Ultra; 2,5 (conflicting sensors), an unknown pair and null give null; atkCatalogDevice(0x373b, 0x1278, "2,77") resolves the model while "2,5" stays undefined.

npm run check passes (build, 2745 tests, pack dry run).

Hardware / evidence

  • Models and paths: ATK COMPX transport (0xFF02:0x02 frames, same device exposes 0xFF04:0x02), 8K dongle-L 373b:1278, wireless.
  • Tested on physical hardware: none. The new tests use synthetic replies encoded with the existing sensor codecs.
  • Evidence: ATK HUB 3.2.29 lists 373b:1278 as a generic receiver (receiver: true, no sensor); the existing catalog and ATK_PRODUCTS carry the per-CID/MID sensors.

Known gaps

  • The reporter's exact mouse is unknown. If its CID/MID is not in the catalog, it still falls back to the generic codec. The catalog is generated from HUB 3.2.27; HUB 3.2.28 and 3.2.29 add roughly 58 product ids that are missing, and there is no extractor script in the repo. That refresh is a separate change.
  • Not run against OpenMouse (the app-side check in CONTRIBUTING).
  • A diagnostics export from the reporter (CID/MID and a HUB reading for the same slot) would confirm which case this is.

Note

Fix DPI reporting for ATK mice behind generic 8K dongles

  • Mice using a generic 8K dongle-L have no USB ID catalog entry, so DPI decoding previously failed to identify the sensor. atkCatalogDevice in products.ts now falls back to a CID/MID lookup when the USB ID has no catalog entries, returning a match only when exactly one catalog device matches.
  • Adds atkCatalogSensorForCidMid, which returns a sensor only when all catalog devices matching the CID/MID resolve to the same non-null sensor. AtkHidClient.sensorKey in hid.ts uses it as a last resort after product and USB catalog lookups.
  • Adds tests in hid.test.ts covering receiver-backed sensor decoding (900 DPI on both axes, single stage) and CID/MID catalog lookups.
  • Behavioral Change: the USB ID lookup no longer falls back when the USB ID has catalog entries but none match; ambiguous CID/MID matches return undefined and no sensor is inferred.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved recognition of supported mice connected through the generic 8K dongle, including cases where the dongle’s USB identity alone does not identify the device.
    • Improved catalog matching for shared device identities. Ambiguous or unsupported matches are not assigned a sensor, helping prevent incorrect device identification.

Walkthrough

The ATK device catalog now supports CID/MID fallback when USB-ID lookup has no entries. HID sensor selection uses the CID/MID sensor lookup as a final fallback. Tests cover sensor selection, catalog matching, and DPI decoding for a mouse behind the generic 8K dongle-L.

Changes: ATK sensor lookup

Layer / File(s) Summary
Catalog lookup by USB ID and CID/MID
src/drivers/atk/products.ts
atkCatalogDevice uses CID/MID lookup only when the USB ID has no catalog entries and a CID/MID is supplied. The new sensor lookup returns a sensor only when matching catalog devices resolve to one distinct supported sensor.
HID sensor fallback and coverage
src/drivers/atk/hid.ts, src/drivers/atk/hid.test.ts
sensorKey() uses the CID/MID sensor lookup when product and catalog lookups provide no sensor. Tests cover DPI decoding and known, ambiguous, and unknown identities.

Merge Risk: Low · up to 0f93a

Mergeable with bounded follow-up: callers should read status before requesting DPI limits, otherwise an offered value may later be rejected. Documenting this initialization requirement would clarify usage.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at 0f93afc

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — The change uses CID/MID identity to select the appropriate DPI codec for mice behind generic receivers. Existing verified profiles retain priority and ambiguous identities keep the fallback, limiting risk to device identification and adjustable mouse settings.

Minor follow-up DPI limits before identification can disagree with setDpi() for CID/MID-resolved mice.

1618-1618: Minor · Functional Correctness · Low value

DPI limits before identification can disagree with setDpi() for CID/MID-resolved mice.

maxDpi() and getDpiOptions() call sensorKey() before identify() runs. At that point cidMid is null, so both return the generic range. The new CID/MID fallback at line 1618 resolves a sensor only after identification.

For receiver 0x373b:0x1278 with CID/MID 2,22, both catalog models (VXE R1 SE+) map to CORE26K. Before identification, getDpiOptions() includes 60. After identification, setDpi() validates against the CORE26K list, which uses 50-DPI steps and excludes 60. setDpi(60) then throws, and maxDpi() changes from 42000 to 26000.

Callers that read limits or options before readStatus() can receive values that setDpi() rejects. Either the pre-identification options should use the same resolved sensor, or the generic pre-identification behavior should be documented.

Review comment at @src/drivers/atk/hid.ts at line 1618:
Update sensorKey() to resolve the sensor using the CID/MID fallback before
identification, reusing the resolution shown in atkCatalogSensorToSensor and
atkCatalogSensorForCidMid. Ensure maxDpi() and getDpiOptions() use the same
sensor-specific limits as setDpi() for CID/MID-resolved mice.
Nitpick Add a readStatus() test for ambiguous CID/MID 2,5.

1305-1305: Trivial · Maintainability & Code Quality · Quick win

Add a readStatus() test for ambiguous CID/MID 2,5.

The new tests call only atkCatalogSensorForCidMid and atkCatalogDevice. They do not construct AtkHidClient. A change to AtkHidClient.sensorKey() that selects a sensor for CID/MID 2,5 would not fail any ATK test. The only readStatus() test uses [2, 77], which resolves to one sensor and does not reach the conflicting 2,5 candidates.

Add a readStatus() test behind the generic 8K dongle-L (0x1278) that replies with CID/MID [2, 5]. Assert the generic codec result. Choose reply bytes that decode differently under the generic codec and under the conflicting candidate sensors PAW3395 and PAW3311. Otherwise the assertion cannot distinguish them.

The title a CID/MID shared by models with different sensors stays on the generic codec behind a receiver describes readStatus() behavior, but the test asserts only helper results. Rename it to match its assertions:

Test title change
-test("a CID/MID shared by models with different sensors stays on the generic codec behind a receiver", () => {
+test("CID/MID sensor lookup resolves a sensor only when the matching models agree", () => {
