Section 4: Production Description 

 

Overview 

The Magicians SOCD Cleaner V2 gives you the ability to add SOCD cleaning to nearly 
any OEM controller and control board. With 25 different SOCD combinations and a 
custom SOCD rule creator, this is the gold standard. It you are looking for the best SOCD 
cleaner out there, you have found it! 

 

Connectivity 

The Magicians SOCD Cleaner V2 makes it simple to wire the following features: 

 

Power input via a two-pin screw terminal block and Pass-thru Harness port. These 
ports are protected from accidental reverse voltage conditions. The Pass-thru 
Harness port makes it easier to use aftermarket pass thru cables so that there is no 
reason to ever tap into the sticks power lines. 

 

Direction inputs via a five-pin screw terminal block. Having it as a screw terminal 
makes it easy to accommodate the wiring scheme of your setup. 

 

Cleaned outputs via a five pin JST NH connector, commonly used for arcade 
joysticks and to make integration easier with your controller’s built-in cable or to 
easily use with an after-market harness. 

 

Micro USB port to offer a quick power test and for updating the firmware via a PC. 

 

Comes with a configuration smart phone app that connects via Bluetooth Low 
Energy (BLE) to quickly configure and test the Magicians SOCD Cleaner during 
installation. Can also be used to quickly change modes between matches. 

 

OMNI port for both direction inputs and LED output making integration with 
accessories such as the ODIN and LOKI a snap. 

 

Configuration 

All configuration is performed via a phone app. This makes it easy to read and configure 
features such as: 

 

Changing SOCD cleaning modes, with 25 to choose from.

 

 

Creating your own SOCD rules when you need extra control.

 

 

Saving between four different profiles to switch in between matches and games.

 

 

Changing the cleaned output connector mapping for any control board pinout.

 

 

Changing the cleaned output connector logic convention for compatibility with most 
control board.

 

 

Real time testing of cleaned outputs to ensure the cleaning profile is configured exactly 
how you intended it to be.

 

 

Changing the type of BLE advertising to save on battery power or to prevent other 
players from messing with your settings.

 

 

Reading PCB and app information to stay informed on your setup’s version.
