This is required to prevent Windows from turning off the controller or the USB to UART adapter.
If you own a logitech wheel you need to install the [http://www.logitech.com/pub/techsupport/joystick/lgs510.exe 32-bit LGS] on a 32-bit Windows, or the [http://www.logitech.com/pub/techsupport/joystick/lgs510_x64.exe 64-bit LGS] on a 64-bit Windows.
 
 
 
This should install the Logitech driver and make the wheel work in native mode.
 
  
On GNU/Linux there is no need to install any driver or software.

If you haven't connected your adapter to the computer before you need to do it now:

* Connect '''AVR board''' (blue board) to the '''computer'''
{{#ifeq:{{{platform|}}}|xboxone|====Install the libusbk driver====
+
* Connect '''UART converter''' (the other side) also to the '''computer'''
  
It is required to replace the stock controller driver with the libusbk driver.<br />

This prevents Windows from making any request to the controller.<br />
 
  
This can easily be done using [http://zadig.akeo.ie/ Zadig]:

Now you can disable power saving:
* plug the Xbox One controller and run Zadig
 
* choose "Options->List All Devices"
 
* select the device with '''"Controller"''' as device name and with '''"045E:02D1"''' as USB IDs
 
* select "libusbK" as target driver
 
* click on the drop down menu, and select "Install Driver"
 
* click on "Replace Driver"

Now, as you did previous steps you can proceed to installation of the GIMX software itself. Depending on architecture of your system choose correct package.
+
Depending on your Windows version download the correct package:
+
* [https://gimx.fr/download/gimx-windows-32bits 32-bit setup], for any x86 Windows
* [https://gimx.fr/download/gimx-windows-32bits 32-bit setup], for 32-bit Windows only
+
* [https://gimx.fr/download/gimx-windows-64bits 64-bit setup], for x86 64-bit Windows only
* [https://gimx.fr/download/gimx-windows-64bits 64-bit setup], for 64-bit Windows only
+
If you are unsure about your Windows version look for the "System type" in the System properties.<br />
And install GIMX software.

If you plan using a Logitech wheel and did not have installed LGS, just plug your wheel and start gimx-launcher. It will detect the wheel and propose you to install LGS (since GIMX 7.3).
