Additional context

Thanks for this project ! So far every feature supported by both msi-ec and my laptop has worked really nicely.

My laptop can enable a Fast Charge ("QC" / Quick Charge) mode on the left USB Port. An LED lights up and the port delivers more power for charging, say, your phone. This feature is enabled and disabled from MSI Creative Center.

By playing around with RWEverything in Win 11, it seems two values are changing when toggling this mode :

  • address 2b is at 80 when QC off and at 81 when QC is on
  • address 2c is increased or decreased when I switch QC on an off. However i struggle to identify a pattern. Here are some values i saw (formatted as : QC enabled / disabled) : 4f / 50 ; 47 / 48. And in the EC dump above (taken from Ubuntu with dd), QC was ON, address 2c is at 3f but i can't toggle QC off from linux.

Thanks !
