Troubleshooting

Common issues for both the 1PC and 2PC setups, with quick fixes.

RP2040 or Arduino not detected

The 1PC hardware chain is not being recognized by aimos.

Solution

  • - Make sure the USB cable is properly connected and is a real data cable.
  • - Try a different USB port on the PC.
  • - Check Device Manager to confirm the board is recognized.
  • - If you use Leonardo + Host Shield, re-check the solder points.

2PC NDI feed is not showing up

The second PC is not seeing the main PC feed through OBS + NDI.

Solution

  • - Install OBS first, then DistroAV, then the NDI extension or runtime on the main PC.
  • - Restart OBS after both installs and open Tools > DistroAV NDI Settings.
  • - Enable Main output and set the output name to PC1-OBS.
  • - In OBS > Settings > Video, keep Base and Output Resolution matched to Windows and use Fractional FPS Value 120/1.
  • - Add a Display Capture source on the main display and make sure both PCs are on the same local network.
  • - Do not run the 2PC plan on the main PC directly.

MAKCU is not passing mouse input correctly

The 2PC bridge is wired, but the mouse path is not behaving as expected.

Solution

  • - Use the exact MAKCU order: left port to PC 1, middle port to PC 2, right port to the mouse.
  • - Plug the mouse into the MAKCU first, then reconnect both PC cables.
  • - The MAKCU should stay on full passthrough. No extra device configuration is required.
  • - Re-seat the USB connections and test again.
  • - Make sure you are using the dedicated 2PC setup, not RP2040 or Leonardo steps.

Color detection not working

The software is not detecting the target color.

Solution

  • - Verify the HSV color range is correctly configured.
  • - Adjust the color tolerance values.
  • - Make sure the target color is visible in the feed you are actually using.
  • - Check that the correct monitor or workflow is selected.

Cursor movements are jittery

The cursor moves erratically instead of smoothly.

Solution

  • - Lower the movement speed settings.
  • - Increase the smoothing factor.
  • - Check the hardware bridge connection again.
  • - Ensure the USB path is stable without loose connections.
