Smurfiboy: /* PC */

(work in progress)

==Hardware requirements==

===Bluetooth dongle===

A bluetooth dongle is needed. The only tested bt chip is the CSR8510 chip.

===PC===

The only supported OS is Ubuntu 13.10 and its derivate such as Linux Mint 16.

Also works with raspberry pi without gui. See below.

===Teensy 2.0===

This is a temporary requirement used for pairing the bt dongle with the PS4.

The firmware to load is available at: http://gimx.fr/download/EMUPS4.7z

===Dualshock 4===

The PS4 only takes inputs from licensed controller. 
In order to authenticate itself as a licensed controller, GIMX needs to be connected to real DS4 all the time.

==Compilation & installation==

There's no installation package yet, but GIMX can be easily built from the sources.

Refer to the [[Development_on_Linux]] page. When typing the 'git clone' command line, replace 'master' with 'dev'.

Raspberry:

After cloning open gimx/config/configMain.cpp
Replace 3 times:
s_axis_props axis_props = {.axis = i}
With:
s_axis_props = axis_props;
axis_props.axis = i;

==Setup==

The setup performs the bluetooth pairing between the PS4 and the dongle, and between the dongle and the DS4. 
It has to be run again if the DS4 is reused (i.e. paired again) with the PS4.

Download the helper script:

wget <nowiki>https://raw.github.com/matlo/GIMX-tools/master/PS4/gimx-ps4-helper.sh</nowiki>

Make it executable:

chmod +x gimx-ps4-helper.sh

Run it:

sudo ./gimx-ps4-helper.sh

Simply follow the instructions. A successful output should look like this:

$ sudo ./gimx-ps4-setup.sh
Unplug any Dualshock 4.
Unplug any teensy.
Unpug the bluetooth dongle.
Then press enter.

Plug the bluetooth dongle.
The bluetooth dongle address is XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX.
The bluetooth hci number is 1.
Plug the DS4 with a USB cable.
The DS4 address is YY:YY:YY:YY:YY:YY.
Unplug the DS4.
Plug the teensy.
Unplug the teensy.
Plug the teensy to the PS4, and wait a few seconds.
Then plug the teensy back to the PC.
The PS4 address is ZZ:ZZ:ZZ:ZZ:ZZ:ZZ.
Everything was successful: setting dongle link keys.
To run gimx, type:
gimx -t DS4 -c config.xml -h 1 -b ZZ:ZZ:ZZ:ZZ:ZZ:ZZ



==Start==
(i have noticed that first start is only syncing after turn off ps4 after using helper --Smurfiboy)

1. The bluetooth service has to be stopped before starting GIMX (this allows GIMX to get incoming connections):
sudo service bluetooth stop
sudo hciconfig hci<hci number> up pscan
<hci number> is the bluetooth hci number, for example 0 if there is only one bluetooth adapter (internal or external). Run 'hciconfig' if you're not sure about this value.

2. Start GIMX:
gimx -t DS4 -c <config file> -h <hci number> -b <PS4 bdaddr>

<config file> is the name of the config file to use. 
<hci number> is the bluetooth hci number, for example 0 if there is only one bluetooth adapter (internal or external). Run 'hciconfig' if you're not sure about this value. 
<PS4 bdaddr> is the address of the PS4. 

3. Start the DS4. It should connect to GIMX, which in turn should connect to the PS4.

4. Refer to the [[Command_line]] page to learn about the other command line arguments.
