GIMX and PS4 - No longer working

Post by devagx »

Hi

Ive not used the GIMX for about 3 weeks now where it has been working just fine. I connected it today and im getting the following. Anyone know how to resolve? Ive tried uninstalling GIMX from my PC and reinstalling but that hasnt helped. Also in device manager I can see Silicon Labs USB to UART bridge (COM3) ok.

Check USB cables, may be broken or bad quality, check solders, check pins to pins connections, do not use USB HUB.

I have checked everything and replaced cables and still same issue. what strange is looking at logs it looks like it does get the connection to the ps4 controller initially and its detecting the gimx adapter:

GIMX adapter detected, controller type is: DS4.
Firmware version: 8.0
Reset sent to the GIMX adapter.
Current baudrate: -1 bps.
found pass-through device 0x054c:0x09cc
registered joystick 0 with name "PS4 Controller"
using default refresh period: 10.00ms
mouse 0 has name 'HID-compliant mouse' and virtual id 0

ive also tried reloading the firmware on the chip and that side of its all working fine.
Only thing I can think of what might have changed is the fact ive done a windows update in last 1 month

How do you upload these logs? Just copy and paste?
