Pair Bluetooth Controllers - manual setup
You need to establish a SSH connection or a terminal windows with keyboard to accomblish this further. You can connect your bluetooth controller manually by doing some commands step by step.
Get started by typing bluetoothctl
Now you are in the Bluetooth control unit. Type following commands and confirm every single one with Enter
agent on default-agent power on scan on
Important: Now set the controller in Pairing mode! This strongly depends from your controller type and we can't write an instruction set for every single controller, how to do this.
So you are in Pairing Mode and you likely see text messages like this.
[bluetooth]# scan on
Discovery started
[CHG] Controller 43:45:C0:00:1F:AC Discovering: yes
[NEW] Device E4:17:D8:C2:0B:0E 8BitDo M30 Modkit
Now we want to connect to our controller. So we type following commands to connect to discovered controller with MAC adress E4:17:D8:C2:0B:0E
properly.
We need to wait a few seconds after entering each command to setup the controller correctly
pair E4:17:D8:C2:0B:0E connect E4:17:D8:C2:0B:0E trust E4:17:D8:C2:0B:0E
So we see for a example a process text like this
[bluetooth]# pair E4:17:D8:C2:0B:0E
