 |
|
Does anyone know the communication protocol for a PS2 gamepad?
I'm trying to access the pressure sensors on my PS2 controller however the documentation available on the web only covers the protocol for DUAL SHOCK/ANALOG PS1 controllers (ID 0x73).
I'm believe that the PS2 requests the activation of the pressure sensors on the X 0 [] /\ ... buttons with a separate command because if left to its own devices a PS2 contoller will ID itself as a DUALSHOCK/ANALOG controller and return data as if it was a PS1 controller (only provides analog data on the left right joysticks).
Hence their must be a separate command issued from the PS2 to activate the remaining analog buttons.
Is anyone able to help or point me in the right direction in accessing the PS2 controller?
Thxs. |

You have to set the controller into analog mode. I can't remember how off the top of my head but there is an example in ps2lib that shows.

He wants the hardware protocol re: analog mode, so the ps2lib sample won't help him much.
However ... Drakonite, maybe the sio2log irx should make it into ps2drv? |
