DGC-255
This controller shares most of its behaviour with DGOC-44U, but internal details need to be confirmed.
DGOC-44U
This controller has two handles (5 power notches and 8+emergency brake notches) and 6 buttons (Select, Start, A, B, C, D).
Internally, it is a HID-compliant joystick with two axes and six buttons (the handle positions are reported via axes). You can find its HID descriptor here.

| Product ID | 0x0003 |
| Serial number | TCPP20009 |
The controller sends reports to the host (PC) formed by 6 bytes:
| Byte 1 | Byte 2 | Byte 3 | Byte 4 | Byte 5 | Byte 6 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brake | Power | Null | Buttons | Null | Null |
The values for the brake notch byte are the following. There are 5 unmarked positions between B8 and Emergency, but unlike classic controllers, they are all report the value for Emergency.
| Released | B1 | B2 | B3 | B4 | B5 | B6 | B7 | B8 | Emergency | Transition |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0x79 | 0x8A | 0x94 | 0x9A | 0xA2 | 0xA8 | 0xAF | 0xB2 | 0xB5 | 0xB9 | 0xFF |
The values for the power notch byte are listed below.
| N | P1 | P2 | P3 | P4 | P5 | Transition |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0x81 | 0x6D | 0x54 | 0x3F | 0x21 | 0x00 | 0xFF |
The button byte uses six bits to represent the state of the physical buttons. 0 means that the button is released and 1 that it is pressed.
| Button 1 | Button 2 | Button 3 | Button 4 | Button 5 | Button 6 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| B | A | C | D | SELECT | START |

Input
The controller sends reports to the host (PS2) formed by 6 bytes:
| Byte 1 | Byte 2 | Byte 3 | Byte 4 | Byte 5 | Byte 6 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brake | Power | Pedal | D-Pad | Buttons | Null |
The values for the brake notch byte are the following.
| Released | B1 | B2 | B3 | B4 | B5 | B6 | B7 | Emergency | Transition |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0x1C | 0x38 | 0x54 | 0x70 | 0x8B | 0xA7 | 0xC3 | 0xDF | 0xFB | 0xFF |
The values for the power notch byte are listed below.
| N | P1 | P2 | P3 | P4 | P5 | P6 | P7 | P8 | P9 | P10 | P11 | P12 | P13 | Transition |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0x12 | 0x24 | 0x36 | 0x48 | 0x5A | 0x6C | 0x7E | 0x90 | 0xA2 | 0xB4 | 0xC6 | 0xD7 | 0xE9 | 0xFB | 0xFF |
The pedal byte has two possible values depending on the state of the pedal.
| Released | Pressed |
|---|---|
| 0xFF | 0x00 |
The D-pad byte represents the state of the arrow buttons. If two opposite directions are pressed simultaneously, the result is Center unless a third button is pressed.
| N | NE | E | SE | S | SW | W | NW | None/Center |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0x00 | 0x01 | 0x02 | 0x03 | 0x04 | 0x05 | 0x06 | 0x07 | 0x08 |
The button byte uses six bits to represent the state of the physical buttons. 0 means that the button is released and 1 that it is pressed. A bitmask can be used to retrieve the buttons.
| Button 1 | Button 2 | Button 3 | Button 4 | Button 5 | Button 6 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| D | C | B | A | SELECT | START |
Output
The controller supports receiving data via a control transfer to update the screen, turn on/off the door lamp and provide rumble. The setup packet is as follows:
| bmRequestType | bRequest | wValue | wIndex | wLength |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0x40 | 0x09 | 0x0301 | 0x0000 | 0x0002 |
The data sent to the controller follows the structure below.
| Byte 1 | Byte 2 | Byte 3 | Byte 4 | Bytes 5-6 | Bytes 7-8 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Left rumble | Right rumble | Door lamp + Limit approach | Speed gauge | Speedometer | ATC limit |
- Left/right rumble: 0x00 is Off, 0x01 is On.
- Door lamp: 0x0? is Off, 0x8? is On.
- Limit approach: values between 0x?0 and 0x?A representing the number of LEDs lit above the speedometer. In-game, these mark the 10 km/h right below the speed limit.
- Speed gauge: values between 0x00 and 0x16 representing the number of LEDs lit on the speed gauge. LED #23 cannot be lit. In-game, these mark 15 km/h increments in the current speed, with one lit when speed is 1-15 km/h, two when 16-30 km/h, etc.
- Speedometer: values between 0x0000 and 0x0999 representing the current speed. Values 0xA-0xF are not used (i.e. 120 km/h should be represented as 0x0120, NOT 0x0078.
- ATC limit: values between 0x0000 and 0x0999 representing the ATC speed limit. Values 0xA-0xF are not used (i.e. 120 km/h should be represented as 0x0120, NOT 0x0078.
Multi-byte values should be stored in Little Endian.
