  • SteelSeries Rival 600 (1038:1724)

If you have trouble running this software, please open an issue on Github:

Requirement

  • Any Linux distribution that use udev (Debian, Ubuntu, ArchLinux, Fedora,...) or Windows
  • hidapi

Installation

Prerequisites

Linux:

Installation require a compilation toolchain and python headers to compile hidapi. On Debian / Ubuntu, this can be installed with the following command (as root):

apt-get install build-essential python-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libudev-dev

Windows:

On Windows, you have to install first:

Installing From PYPI

Run the following command (as root):

pip install rivalcfg

Installing From sources

Clone the repositiory:

git clone https://github.com/flozz/rivalcfg.git
cd rivalcfg

Install rivalcfg (as root):

pip install .

NOTE: udev rules should be automatically installed, but if setup fails, you should copy the rules manually: cp rivalcfg/data/99-steelseries-rival.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/ and then run the udevadm trigger command.

Archlinux AUR package

Use package rivalcfg-git

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

How can I dim the brightness of the lights

Lights are configured via RGB color, so to have a lower brightness, just set a darker color (e.g. #880000 instead of #FF0000 for a darker red).

How can I turn the lights off?

You can turn the lights off by setting the black color to the lights.

Example with Rival 100:

rivalcfg --color=black

Example with Rival, Rival 300:

rivalcfg --logo-color=black --wheel-color=black

I have a "Permission denied" error, what can I do?

If you have an error like

IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/dev/hidrawXX'

this means that the udev rules have not been installed with the software. This can be fixed using the following commands (as root):

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/flozz/rivalcfg/master/rivalcfg/data/99-steelseries-rival.rules -O /etc/udev/rules.d/99-steelseries-rival.rules

sudo udevadm trigger

Debug

Rivalcfg uses several environment variable to enable different debug features:

  • RIVALCFG_DEBUG=1: Enable debug. Setting this variable will allow rivalcfg to write debug information to stdout.

  • RIVALCFG_DRY=1 Enable dry run. Setting this variable will avoid rivalcfg to write anything to a real device plugged to the computer (i any). It will instead simulate the device, so it can be used to make test on mice that are not plugged to the computer if used in conjunction to the RIVALCFG_PROFILE variable.

  • RIVALCFG_PROFILE=<VendorID>:<ProductID>: Forces rivalcfg to load the corresponding profile instead of the one of the plugged device (if any).

  • RIVALCFG_DEVICE=<VendorID>:<ProductID>: Forces rivalcfg to write bytes to this device, even if it is not matching the selected profile.

Example: debug logging only:

$ RIVALCFG_DEBUG=1  rivalcfg --list

Example: dry run on Rival 300 profile:

$ RIVALCFG_DRY=1 RIVALCFG_PROFILE=1038:1710  rivalcfg -c ff1800

Example: using Rival 300 command set on Rival 300 CS:GO Fade Editon mouse:

$ RIVALCFG_PROFILE=1038:1710     RIVALCFG_DEVICE=1038:1394    rivalcfg -c ff1800
