Issue with passing through to console

Post by illusionz »

Hi, I'm having an issue when trying to pass through control from my keyboard to my Xbox One S console. It comes up on GIMX saying to press the guide button, I have bound the guide button to 'm'. When I press 'm' when running GIMX nothing happens, in the log, it acknowledges that it is being pressed but nothing happens on the console or after pressing 'm'.

I am using an Xbox One S with a self-built GIMX using a USB 2102 UART Adapter and an Arduino Leonardo

I have tried a range of troubleshooting steps I have; reinstalled GIMX and usbDk, reflashed the Arduino Leonardo and reflashed the Xbox One controller.

Below is my log file

Code: Select all

global option -l with value `log.txt'
global option -c with value `XOnePadUsb.xml'
controller #1: option -p with value `COM7'
now reading arguments for controller #2

Hi,

On Xbox one, when you see "Press the guide button to activate the controller" you need to press guide button on authenticated xbox one controller :) not from keyboard.

Just tried pressing the guide button on the controller, it causes the guide button on the controller to flash then turn off. Nothing happens within GIMX, when I close it, it says 'GIMX ended and the activation button was not pressed'.

Wiki actually says "Press the guide button of the controller during 2 seconds".

Sorry for the long reply, still no luck with this.
Is there any chance it could be an issue with the controller

I've just tried a different controller and a different cable and managed to get it working once.

Controller needs to be off if you want to use gimx.
