Any advice on how to change it back? I ask because of what happened over the weekend, see below.

I recently purchased a brand new Drive Hub. I am using it for PS5 compatibility with my Simxperience Accuforce wheel, HE Sprint pedals and Fanatec Clubsport shifter. I have a GIMX adapter connected to my gaming PC and have all of the inputs programmed. The GIMX is connected to the Drive Hub via USB and I have a Hori Mini Pad PS4 controller also connected to the Drive Hub. And I have the mini USB cable connecting the Drive Hub to the PS5.

After everything was set up I fired up the PS5 and it worked great. I was able to control GT7 using my keyboard and wheel. I had FFB on the wheel. I then tried the method of switching from Logitech to Fanatec force feedback and so I pressed the two buttons that replicated Select/Share and Pause/Start. I saw some lights on the Drive Hub. From that point forward, the Drive Hub apparently no longer connected properly and so the PS5 does not recognize my wheel and pedal set. I think I messed up by trying to change to Fanatec FFB. I tried flashing the firmware on the Drive Hub and although I could verify that it changed the firmware, I still can no longer connect to the PS5.

Use the same buttons to switch back - it's a toggle between the two modes.

I'm contemplating going the Sigma Cortex route and using all Simagic gear. I'm losing hope that Drivehub will work with the shifter and pedals, including the VNM which only works on beta 35 for me. My p1000 pedals arrive tomorrow. Am I crazy? I'll miss Truforce, this I know. Has anyone gone this route with success?

I tried that but it did not work. For some reason I lost the connection between the Drive Hub and my wheel and I was unable to get it back.

It's for Fanatec wheels. In guessing you need to get it out of Fantec modes.
You can also open a support ticket at creativeminds.

I emailed a support request to Collective Minds on Monday but have not heard back. Here is a screenshot of what I am seeing after I launch GIMX. The Drive Hub is in racing mode but it does not switch to Fanatec or Logitech mode after I launch GIMX.

Collective Minds responded this morning and asked me to try beta 41 for Simagic/VNM shifter and p1000 compatibility. My pedals arrive tomorrow. Just a heads up to anyone looking to try this out.

I don't have any experience with gimx.
Do you have your previous drivehub to test?
For fun, try beta 35. I has to roll back from latest beta last week to make my wheel work again.

Let me know if the simagic ds-8x shifter works. I really want to add that to my Logitech g pro wheel and pedals.

Me too, brother. I'll let you know asap.

I do not have my prior Drive Hub, I sold it after I bought a Logitech G Pro wheel and pedal set. Unfortunately I sold that wheel and pedal set and went back to my Accuforce and HE pedals, which I love, but they don't natively work on consoles.

I tried multiple firmwares, including beta 35, but no luck. I think something is wrong with the Drive Hub. I bought a new one from Collective Minds directly and returned the one I bought from the eBay seller, which was more expensive anyway.
