I believe you need the controller to turn off and on and to make most of the changes such as color.

I would say you need the USB controller because one side is USB the other fits into the sign it self like say a phone USB plug in other words I don't see a way to plug it in without the USB. Also it changes the speed and the flashing type. Of course that can also be done with the remote control. I use mine at the Library I work at, we love it, we get comments on it all the time.

usb controller is just for the ability to change the type of view you see your picture in. Blinking, flashing, wave ,etc.Will not work without being plugged in to wall and usb to port on the sign.

The sign is powered by usb. It comes with a wall plug to power it just like a phone charger etc. it just has a usb that plugs into the wall plug. The remote that comes with it is nice and easy to use with many features to change the color and flash mode etc.

Yes you can but you will experience feedback issues, its not worth it. Just go with the usb set up, plugging it into the controller is more of an xbox thing.

Possibly there is no gurantee depending on how new or oldbut if its fairly new with usb you should be fine. But no gurantees

Caveat: There are different USB cables for connecting peer-to-peer (controller to controller), and master-to-slave (controller to peripheral). Find out what is what! Pay attention that this is type A to type A and can be missused. It can potentially destroy the equipment if both sides supply power.

It is a Console controller, but it has a unplug-able Adapter to change it to USB. But unplug it and it's console!

Absolutely. You don't need any drivers or anything. Just one USB port for the keyboard, and another if you want to use the built-in USB 2 hub.

Manual says USB ports are only for mouse and memstick (for video copy only). So, it has to be internal.

I'm not the seller, sorry. I'd suggest looking up some installation guides because it can be a little tricky I had to buy a powered USB hub when I got mine.

Just plug in the USB and it works great. Any drivers were automatically installed.

yes it will show as a usb controller, and will use considerably more power. But works really well for me. I even run WD USB 3.0 UBS bus powered HDDs through it. I love this card.

It has USB. But the controller is not good, the sticks were not accurate and lagged. I have used it once.

I am not sure. I own 4 of these boards and I plug them into a standard outlet. However, there is a USB type plug that gets plugged into the board itself and the controller for the board is actually a part of the cord. You might want to check with the manufacturer. I had a couple of questions and they responded to me right away.

The controller needs a software update In order to work with the new adapter, hence the usb.

Just 1 USB cable, you don't need the power cable, the USB it's enough to power the controller.

I have a Logitech pair (keyboard and mouse) with a single USB controller, and it works fine.

I run out of the Main Outs into my Lexicon Alpha USB Interface. I have had multiple boards with USB cards built in but they all really suck as USB Sound Interfaces. Love the way the Lexicon Alpha works and the recorded sound it sooooo much better. That is my solution. Even you can get the Alpha pretty cheap and it will far out perform build in USB interfaces.
