Hello,

 

I am new to SimHub so I am sure I am missing something, but I could use some help from anyone who knows their way around.

 

I play GT7 and wanted to setup a few features using SimHub such as Bass Shakers, Rumble Pedals, and Wind Sim. Currently, the Bass Shakers (BTS-2s) are mounted and wired but have not tested them yet in SimHub. I have mounted the rumble motors (PS4 motors) and wired them to the Arduino (links posted below). I then wired 1 fan up to the board so I could bench test the rumble motors and fan to make sure my connections were good.

I went into SimHub, Arduino, My Hardware, (selected one Adriano) Open Arduino setup tool.
Then selected name (Boston Test), add 1 to Shakeit motor shield v2

Under compile and upload I selected Arduino Uno and under port I select COM3- Arduino Uno.         Then Upload.

Under the Arduino section devices scan, it jumps around from Hello, Hello (sending), Hello (waiting Arduino boot), and unrecognized. Then under Shakeit Motor it says 0 motors connected.

 

**Therefore, what am I doing wrong? Did I buy the wrong parts to set this up? There is a chance my connection to the rumble motors isn’t good and could redo them, but the wiring for the fan should be perfect. They’re 4 pin fans and I’m only using the power and ground. Rumble motors are in M1 & M2, and fan is M3. Yet, I can’t get any of them to recognize so I could test and verify my connections.

Thank you for any and all help!
