G-CON45 Setup for PS1:
Video Guide
Here is the full tutorial to create the adapter required and the Pi4 image to get your Sinden Lightgun working with a original PS1 or PS2* console (*G-CON45 games only).
The provided image was a collaboration between Titchgamer, Prof_gLX and Harry Dog who created the original BB image.
Downloads
Sinden Drivers
Download latest Sinden Drivers and Arduino image from the Sinden Lightgun website
Arduino
Download Arduino IDE Software from the Arduino website
Pi4 Image
Download Pi4 image here from the Mediafire
PSX Wiring
PSX Port wiring pin out from Mediafire
Arduino Wiring
Arduino wiring pin out (larger version available from Mediafire)
Win32 Disk Imager
Download Win32diskimager from the SourceForge website
WinSCP
Download WinSCP from the WinSCP website
Troubleshooting and Upgrading the G-CON45 Setup:
Please note this image was created using the 1.4 version of the Sinden software.
It is a good idea to upgrade it to the latest version and upgrade your guns firmware.
To Upgrade the software on the card is very easy, Simply download the latest software from the Sinden Lightgun website
Once downloaded extract the Lightgun folder located in the SindenLightgunLinuxSoftware\Pi-Arm\ folder and overwrite the existing version on the Pi located in folder /home/pi using SSH.
It has been found that on newer Pi's that the Pi may not boot with this image. If this is the case for you please download and extract this file from Mediafire.
After extraction, Copy the Start4.elf & fixup4.dat files and overwrite the ones in the boot partition of your SD card.
If your service starts on the Pi but your gun does not track make sure you have updated your firmware to the latest 1.6 version.
If the service does not start on the Pi and shows a error the IDs are probably wrong, Double check them.
If the gun seems to be rapidly disconnecting and reconnecting again (The controller screen of point blank seems to be a good test for this) you may need to run your adapter through a Multi Tap (or 2 for 2 player).
We are unsure exactly what causes this issue at this point in time if its a power issue or interference but a Multi Tap seems to fix it!

Video Guide
Downloads
Gcon2 Image Pack
Download the Gcon 2 image pack from Mediafire
WinSCP
Download WinSCP from the WinSCP website
Win32 Disk Imager
Download Win32 Disk Imager from the SourceForge
Troubleshooting and Upgrading the GCON2 Setup:
Please note this image was created using the 1.4 version of the Sinden software.
It is a good idea to upgrade it to the latest version and upgrade your guns' firmware too.
To upgrade the software on the card is very easy, Simply download the latest software from the Sinden Lightgun website
Once downloaded extract the Lightgun folder located in the SindenLightgunLinuxSoftware\Pi-Arm\ folder and overwrite the existing version on the Pi located in folder /home/pi using SSH.
It has been found that on newer versions of the Pi that it may not boot with this image. If this is the case for you please download and extract this file from Mediafire.
After extraction, copy the Start4.elf & fixup4.dat files and overwrite the ones in the boot partition of your SD card.
