PlayStation®4 Setup

Cronus Zen™ supports select legacy Logitech® and Fanatec® racing wheels on PlayStation®4, including force feedback, pedals, brake, clutch, and shifter in compatible racing titles.

Do not touch the wheel during force feedback initialization and auto-calibration. Unexpected movement can cause injury or result in incorrect calibration.

Wheel Mode development concluded in January 2020. Further expansion is not feasible due to device memory and compatibility constraints across multiple hardware brands and platforms.

For wider racing wheel compatibility, consider Drive Hub™, a dedicated wheel adapter.

Supported wheels

See PlayStation®5 Setup for the full list of supported wheels and their required modes. The same wheels are supported on PlayStation®4.

---

Power supply

If your wheel needs an external power supply — the Logitech® G25, G27, and G29 use DC 24 V 2 A / 48 W — it must be connected. All peripherals supplied with the wheel must also be connected.

Running the wheel without its power supply can cause:

• no force feedback

• continuous button inputs, for example the D-pad registering repeatedly

• clutch or pedal input not being detected

---

Authentication controller

A licensed PS4® authentication controller must be connected to A1, or the wheel disconnects roughly every 8 to 10 minutes.

The DualShock®4 v2 (CUH-ZCT2X) is recommended, for authentication and for crossover setups.

Model	License donor	Audio over USB	Audio over Bluetooth®	DS4 speaker	Switch audio
CUH-ZCT1X (v1)	No	No	No	No	No
CUH-ZCT2X (v2)	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes

In the model numbers, the final letter is the region: U for USA, E for Europe, J for Japan.

Before you start

• Confirm the game supports PS4® wheel input — see Compatible Racing Games

• Unpair every PlayStation® controller from the console

When a DualShock®4 is connected to a PS4® over USB, it also pairs over Bluetooth®. Forgetting the device prevents automatic re-pairing.

1. Connect the Cronus Zen™ to the PS4® using any controller

2. Go to Settings → Devices → Bluetooth Devices

3. Select the controller and choose Forget Device

Setup

Supported wheels are automatically mapped to emulate a Logitech® G29 profile with force feedback. No manual button remapping is required.

Configure Wheel Mode

1

Connect the Zen to your PC

Use the PROG USB port.

2

Enable Wheel Mode

Open Zen Studio → Tools → Zen Operational Mode, select Wheel Mode, and click Finish.

The Wheel Mode logo appears on the Zen's OLED screen.

3

Set the device panel options

In Zen Studio → Device Panel:

Setting	Value
Emulator Output Protocol	AUTO
PS4 Speciality	Disabled
PS Remote Play	Disabled

4

Confirm it is active

Press the Zen's reset button once and check that Wheel Mode shows in the status bar. If Device Disconnected appears, unplug and reconnect the PROG USB cable.

Connect the hardware

1

Disconnect everything

Remove all cables from the Zen so it has no power.

2

Connect the AUTH controller

Connect the DualShock®4 v2 to A1.

3

Connect the wheel

Connect the racing wheel to A3, with its external power supply connected.

4

Connect the Zen to the PS4®

Use the CONSOLE/PC USB port.

On a PS4® Pro, use a rear USB port on the console.

5

Synchronize

Press the Zen's reset button to complete synchronization.

Stand clear of the wheel. Force feedback initialization and auto-calibration start automatically, and the wheel can move without warning.
