DS4 doesn't connect to PS4

Post by Anonymous000 »

The adapter and controller are plugged in and my PS4 is on. The controller starts charging when press start in the GIMX-Launcher but when instructed to "Press the key/button assigned to the PS" the controller refuses to turn on and won't connect tot he PS4 but continues charging.
Any help is appreciated.

You are using wrong config file. You need to download mouse config for each game you want to play. See our database - https://gimx.fr/wiki/index.php?title=Config_Index

Also please check the tutorial pinned in this section.

Re: DS4 doesn't connect to PS4

Post by kaiba_seto2004 »

Please read tutorial again.
You don't need to turn on DS4, DS4 must be turned off before connect to PC.
So follow this step by step:
- Turn off DS4, connect DS4 to PC.
- Connect gimx adapter to PC by UART side and PS4 by AVR side.
- Open gimx-launcher. Select rainbowsix config in list box.
- Replace mouse DPI by select File / edit fps config and input your mouse DPI. Do remember to save after edit.
- Press Start button on gimx-launcher.
- Press RETURN aka ENTER key on keyboard. Don't touch DS4.

Re: DS4 doesn't connect to PS4

Post by Anonymous000 »

Still no luck. Adapter is plugged into my laptop via its male USB plug. It is then connected to my ps4 via a usb cable. My DS4 is turned off and connected to my laptop via a usb cable. I launch gimx launcher. OutPut:GIMX adapter. Port: COM5. Input: Physical devices. Config: PS4..DiJu519.xml. Messages: none. Mouse capture: auto. Then I press check "A device name was empty. multiple mice and keyboards are not managed. Then I click start, a terminal opens and it finishes on "Press the key/button assigned to PS" I have assigned this to 'enter/return' and 'backspace'. After pressing both of these keys nothing happens. Am I missing something, this worked fine previously then I came back to it 2 weeks later after having touched nothing and it refuses to work.
Thanks for any help.

Open device manager.
Plug the other side of the adapter to your computer.
Click on start in gimx-launcher.
Check there is a device appearing in the device manager.

If no device appears, check the USB cable is correctly inserted into the adapter. Also try with another cable to check if the cable is not faulty.
