The following steps are for using Drive Hub with a native or non-native wheel on PlayStation®3 on the two supported games, Grand Turismo®5 & 6:
Ensure you have read the Updating Firmware page.
Do not use an authentication controller; leave Drive Hub's "Controller" port empty.
Where possible, connect any accessories that already work with your wheel to the wheel itself.
Wheel mode does not matter. Switch to the mode with the highest number of features.
Connect your wheel to Drive Hub's "Wheel/Controller" port.
If you have an additional accessory, connect it to Drive Hub's "Accessory" port.
To connect more than one accessory, connect a powered USB hub (one that plugs into the wall) to the "Accessory" port. Power issues usually manifest as disconnections, and Force Feedback (FFB) dropping out.
Connect the included 6ft Micro USB cable to Drive Hub's "Console" port, and then connect the other end to your console.
Drive Hub will begin calibration, displaying the wheel's model number on Drive Hub's display (e.g. Logitech G27 will be displayed as G-2-7) before indicating it is successfully connected.
For PS3®, successfully connected is an E for Emulator.
To the PS3®, all Thrustmaster® wheels will appear as a T500, and all Fanatec®, Logitech®, and other wheels will appear as a G27. As conversion scaling can never be 1:1, it is normal to expect differences in feel.
If it does not work, there is likely a cable issue somewhere. A bad or power only cable is the most common culprit. Check to see if all connected ports are lit up on the back of the Drive Hub. Try other cables if you have to.
