# PlayStation®5 Setup

Cronus Zen™ supports select legacy Logitech® and Fanatec® racing wheels on PlayStation®5, including force feedback, pedals, brake, clutch, and shifter in compatible racing titles.

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Do not touch the wheel during force feedback initialization and auto-calibration.** Unexpected movement can cause injury or result in incorrect calibration.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
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.
{% endhint %}

Fanatec® wheels: see [Fanatec PS3 Mode](/wheel-mode/fanatec-ps3-mode.md) for detailed instructions.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Logitech® G29** works directly on PS4® and PS5® without a Cronus Zen™. Set it to PS4 Mode with the DC power supply connected.
{% endhint %}

<summary><strong>Logitech® G25 — shifter modes</strong></summary>

To switch between Six-Speed and Sequential Mode, push down on the shift knob and rotate the **Mode Selection Dial** until the red arrow points to the symbol you want.

* Sequential Mode — status light **on**
* Six-Speed Mode — status light **off**

### <i class="fa-plug">:plug:</i> Power supply <a href="#power" id="power"></a>

{% hint style="warning" %}
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 such as pedals, brake, clutch, and shifter must also be connected.
{% endhint %}

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

For example, a Logitech® G27 used in Gran Turismo® 7 without its power supply shows all three.

#### Before you start <a href="#before" id="before"></a>

* Confirm the game supports PS5® wheel input — see Compatible Racing Games
* Disable all scripts and GamePacks
* Unpair every PlayStation® controller from the console

{% hint style="warning" %}
When a DualSense™ or DualShock®4 is connected to a PS5® over USB, it also pairs over Bluetooth®. Deleting it prevents automatic re-pairing.

1. Connect the Cronus Zen™ to the PS5® using any controller
2. Go to **Settings → Accessories → Bluetooth Accessories**
3. Select the controller and choose **Delete**

### <i class="fa-arrows-rotate">:arrows-rotate:</i> Setup <a href="#setup" id="setup"></a>

In PS5® Wheel Mode, supported wheels are automatically mapped to emulate a Logitech® G29 profile with full force feedback. No manual button remapping is required.

**Configure Wheel Mode**

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Connect the Zen to your PC

Use the **PROG USB** port.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### 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.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Confirm it is active

Press the Zen's reset button once. If **Device Disconnected** appears, reconnect the PROG USB cable.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Enable PS4 Speciality

In **Zen Studio → Device Panel**, enable **PS4 Speciality** and let the Zen restart.

To confirm it stayed enabled, disconnect and reconnect the PROG USB cable and check the setting again.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

**Connect the hardware**

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Disconnect everything

Remove all cables from the Zen so it has no power.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Connect the AUTH controller

Connect the PS4® Speciality authentication controller to **A1**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Connect the wheel

Connect the racing wheel to **A3**, with its external power supply connected.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Connect the Zen to the PS5®

Use the **CONSOLE/PC USB** port.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Synchronize

Press the Zen's reset button to complete synchronization.

{% hint style="danger" %}
Stand clear of the wheel. Force feedback initialization and auto-calibration start automatically, and the wheel can move without warning.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

```
GET https://guide.cronuszen.com/wheel-mode/ps5setup.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
