Ok, here's my simple explanation of the Cronus Max device. What's a Cronus Max? It's basically a programmable adapter that you can use to convert the input signal from a controller to a different controller. For example, you can use a PS3 controller on an Xbox One, which is what I'm doing here.
Before you can use your preferred controller, you will first need to program The Cronus Max by using a software called Gtuner. I actually did a screenshot of the Gtuner software you use to program the Cronus Max, but I'm at the office typing this right now. I'll add more to this post later. Anyway, it's pretty straightforward. You first use one of the plugins, like the Remapper plugin, and select the Input and Output controllers. In my example, I have 2 profiles configured. One is from Xbox 360 > Xbox One, and the other for PS3 > Xbox One.
EDIT: Gtuner pictures added
The default profile already maps the buttons to the Output controller correctly. For example, Square > X, Triangle > Y and so on. However, you can remap your controller to your liking if the defaults do not suit you. For example, my Hori Fighting Stick EX2's layout is: B W Y for the top buttons, and A LT RT for the bottom buttons. Since I forgot to remap my buttons on the Xbox 360 profile, trying to play with the standard layout doesn't make sense. Once you have selected a profile, just use the compiler, execute and run the script, then program it to your Cronus Max. You can have up to 10 profiles on the device.
The Cronus Max works by authenticating to your Xbox One with a WIRED connection. First, you will need to connect the Cronus Max to a USB port on your Xbox One, then connect an Xbox One controller to the Input jack on the Cronus Max using a Micro USB cable, like in the picture here.
