| + | {{#ifeq:{{{platform|}}}|ps4|The PS4 only takes inputs from licensed controller.<br /> | ||
| + | In order to authenticate itself as a licensed controller, GIMX needs to be connected over bluetooth to a real Dualshock 4 all the time. | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Raspbian-specific instructions | ||
| + | |||
| + | The bluetooth service is automatically started when a device tries to connect.<br /> | ||
| + | This is annoying since it will intercept the connection requests.<br /> | ||
| + | To disable the service, run the following command '''and reboot''':<br /> | ||
| + | |||
| + | sudo update-rc.d bluetooth disable | ||
| + | |||
| + | Alternatively, you can stop the bluetooth service and move the bluetoothd binary:<br /> | ||
| + | |||
| + | sudo service bluetooth stop | ||
| + | cd /usr/sbin | ||
| + | sudo mv bluetoothd bluetoothd.bk | ||
| + | |||
| + | The drawback of this second method is that it will need to be performed again after each update of the bluez package. | ||
| + | |||
| + | * AVR USB development board | ||
| + | |||
| + | An [[DIY_USB_adapter#AVR_USB_development_board|AVR USB development board]] is required for pairing the bluetooth dongle with the PS4.<br /> | ||
| + | The same board can be used to build a DIY USB adapter, but no USB to serial TTL converter is needed here.<br /> | ||

| + | # If no previous pairing was defined, you will be asked to create a new pairing. Click on "Yes". | ||
| + | # As requested, connect a [[Bluetooth_dongle|compatible bluetooth dongle]], and click on "Yes". | ||
| + | # As requested, connect a Dualshock 4 with a micro USB cable, and click on "Yes". | ||
| + | # Select the pairing to use and click on "Validate". | ||
| + | # Connect the AVR USB board (e.g. Teensy 2.0) and click on "Yes". | ||
| + | # As requested, connect the AVR USB board to the PS4, and wait a few seconds. | ||
| + | # Connect the AVR USB board back to the computer, and click on "Yes". | ||
| + | # A new pairing should appear in the "Pairing" drop-down menu. | ||
| + | # Unplug the Dualshock 4. | ||
| + | # In the "Config" drop-down menu, select the configuration file to use. | ||
| + | # Click on "Start". | ||
| + | # Press on the PS button of the Dualshock 4. | ||
