What is SPUTNIK360 SWITCH?
The Xecuter SPUTNIK360 unlock switch is an unlock PCB for the Lite-On DG-16D4S drives that contain the Macronix SPI chips, these are very similar to the LT switches used for the old phat lite-on drives, once installed the switch has two modes, one is normal mode which is locked and the other is the un-lock mode so you are able to successfully flash the drive. The SPUTNIK360 switch will be great for those repair places that like the idea of not having to rebuild the cut tracks manually using the Probe method, while we know a lot of places will be quite happy to use the Probe method and rebuild the cut tracks manually we also know some places much prefer to use a simple PCB per drive and have the unlock switch in place for future and the rebuild using a PCB such as the SPUTNIK360 switch is very neat and professional.
The Xecuter SPUTNIK360 unlock switch does require soldering, first you need to prepare the tracks and once that is done the SPUTNIK360 unlock switch is soldered into place and ready to use. Do note that these are only for the DG-16D4S drives with the Macronix SPI and will not work on the Winbond, so please keep that in mind when ordering. If you are after the most professional looking and lasting rebuild of your DG-16D4S projects and want to avoid a manual rebuild of the cut traces on a drive using wires the buying Xecuter SPUTNIK360 unlock switch is a perfect solution.

How to use SPUTNIK360 SWITCH & PROBE + X360USB PRO
I thought I’d just quickly post this up as I was doing a bunch of LT+ v1.91 testing tonight and figured you’d like to see how simple it is to use one the SPUTNIK360 addon when you have an X360USB PRO and the latest JungleFlasher.
Simply install the switch like so. Set the switch to Unlock.

That’s it
No need to probe mpx01, no need for 3rd party software. Nice and simple.
I will do a more detailed guide shortly showing how to set the status back to locked after you have flashed it and how to set the PCB back to default like it was never touched.
Oh and this may be useful also…….
