Using bluetooth controller on Namco 256 arcade？

[andymage]

I want to connect a Bluetooth device to the I/O board of my Namco 256 arcade machine. How do I do this? My io control board model is: Namco V329 NA-JV I/O.

you don't.

You get the openjvs hat (https://thebrewingacademy.com/products/openjvs-hat-for-raspberry-pi) and with just that and the wipi distribution (which includes openjvs and settings) , you can link bluetooth devices and be on your way

Thank you very much for your recommendation. They have already shipped it to me.

I see i wrote « with just that » but you do need a rasberry pi to put on the rasberry hat! Just to be clear!

Let us know how it works for you!

I have a Raspberry Pi 3B. Can it work properly when used with OPEN JVS?

Yes!

I have received this device, how do I use it now? @Mrhide
My wireless device is the original PS5 controller

Start with:
https://github.com/OpenJVS/OpenJVS/blob/master/docs/hat-quickstart.md

And
https://github.com/OpenJVS/OpenJVS/blob/master/docs/OpenJVS_IO_Manual_1.2.pdf

Let us know if you have more questions

ps: Note that support for it is already integrated in @chunksin excellent wipi image. I suggest you try that first.
Remember : connect the hat to your pi, connect your JVS device (and only that!) (ie your namco 256) to the HAT square "usb tube B" connector.
then your USB joystick or you can pair bluetooth devices.

FINE! I've actually tried it for you

You would go to setup menu:

Hold the 2 buttons below for ~6 seconds to put the dual sense in discovery mode

hit scan on the netbooter and it should see it. Hit PAIR DEVICE with it selected:

then you'll need to configure/assign keys in here

once done, go OpenJVS Control

to assign a "type" of mapping for the game you want to launch.

and you should be going!

What I have now is a Raspberry Pi 3b and a 2x6 multi-dongle. The image inside is namco2x6_raspbian.img. This image does not contain the OpenJVS Bluetooth function, right?

I don't know about that image, sorry.

No - that is Blade Zx's image for the Namco 2x6 that works by programming the multi-dongle. It does NOT have OpenJVS on the image.

I need an img Raspberry Pi image that includes the OPENJVS setup function, because I think the other tutorial is a bit difficult for me

works by programming the multi-dongle

If you have the drive simulator is has the game images as well I'm guessing?

Raspberry Pi image that includes the OPENJVS setup function,

Do you have the IDE drive simulator ? if you don't, you can have 2 micro sd cards and boot each images ?
