DualSense Command Center

DualSense Command Center (DSCC) is a free Windows app for PlayStation DualSense and DualSense Edge controllers on PC.

Tune adaptive triggers, haptics, lights, profiles, and racing-game telemetry from one local app. No Python, no scripts, no command line.

Quick terms:

• Adaptive triggers: L2/R2 resistance, clicks, and feedback.
• Haptics: controller rumble and texture.
• Telemetry: game data like brake pressure, RPM, speed, and tire slip.

Features

• Tune L2/R2 feel, including custom brake and throttle curves.
• Turn racing telemetry into trigger feedback, rumble, lightbar color, and RPM LEDs.
• Save, import, export, rename, and switch profiles.
• Check battery, connection, diagnostics, and controller status.
• Mirror Steam Input mappings for supported games, including an Edge paddle-shift preset.
• Use the built-in guide and tooltips when setting up.

Download and install

1. Open the latest release.
2. Download DSCC Standard for Windows x86_64. The current release is 0.4.1.
3. Run the .msi installer. Windows may show a SmartScreen warning because the installer is not signed yet; if you downloaded it from the official release page, choose More info, then Run anyway.

Your profiles and settings live in your user folder and stay in place when you update. To verify a download, the release page lists SHA256 checksums for each file.

First-time setup

1. Open DualSense Command Center from the Start menu or tray icon.
2. Connect your DualSense or DualSense Edge over USB, or pair it over Bluetooth.
3. Follow or skip the first-run guide. You can reopen it later with Guide.
4. For everyday tuning, use the Global Profile.
5. To use racing telemetry, start a supported game. DSCC switches profiles automatically.

Turn on Forza telemetry

Forza games need one in-game setting. Turn on Data Out or UDP Race Telemetry, then enter:

• IP address: 127.0.0.1
• Port: 5300

Assetto Corsa Rally needs no setup. See Games that work.

Games that work

Forza

Forza Horizon 5, Forza Horizon 6, and Forza Motorsport work through Data Out telemetry. DSCC uses it for braking, ABS, throttle, gear shifts, rev limiter, road texture, tire slip, RPM lighting, and more.

Assetto Corsa Rally

Works through shared-memory telemetry on Windows, with no port setup. Launch the game, enter a driving session, and pick the detected profile in DSCC.

Will my controller work?

DSCC supports DualSense and DualSense Edge on Windows over USB or Bluetooth. The Edge gets the full experience: profiles, adaptive triggers, telemetry haptics, lightbar controls, and diagnostics.

The Windows hardware matrix lists tested controller and connection combinations.

Is it safe?

DSCC runs locally on your PC.

• The app uses 127.0.0.1:43473; Forza telemetry uses 127.0.0.1:5300.
• LAN access stays off unless you enable it.
• Game haptics require a supported game, an active profile, and fresh telemetry.
• Test effects stop when the test ends.
• Steam Input edits are backed up before changes are written.
• Controller output goes through validated frames, not raw HID write routes.

Thanks to the early testers who report rough edges and ask for the features that matter.

Advanced and other options

Other Windows installers (most people can ignore these)

Pick one installer. Most people want DSCC Standard.

Installer	Use this when	Bundles the non-Steam Input Bridge broker?	Notes
DSCC Standard	You want controller tuning, profiles, haptics, telemetry, diagnostics, and Steam Input support, in the smallest normal install.	No	Recommended for most users. Non-Steam bridge screens stay visible but show the provider as not installed.
DSCC Bridge	You want to test the DSCC Input Bridge with local non-Steam games, without installing a separate .NET runtime.	Yes, self-contained	Larger installer. Best plug-and-play bridge option.
DSCC Bridge Framework-Dependent	You want bridge support and already have the matching x64 .NET runtime.	Yes, framework-dependent	Smaller than Bridge, but it needs that runtime. For advanced users.

Steam games and normal controller tuning do not need a Bridge installer. Use Bridge to reach games beyond Steam.

DualSense Edge onboard slots

DSCC reads and writes the Edge onboard Fn-slot settings over USB or Bluetooth, through guarded HID feature reports. It marks a slot as synced only after the controller confirms the write and a fresh read matches.

Onboard sync covers static settings: trigger deadzones, stick presets, vibration intensity, trigger intensity, and button mappings. Fn + Circle, Fn + Cross, and Fn + Square are editable; Fn + Triangle stays the read-only default.

DSCC does not store live telemetry haptics on the controller. Those need DSCC running.

Linux beta

Download the Linux archive, extract it into a fresh folder, then run:

./dscc-cli serve --addr 127.0.0.1:43473

Open http://127.0.0.1:43473/. The archive includes the production web UI, so you do not need Vite.

Linux controller access may need local USB/HID permissions. The Linux Beta Guide covers udev setup and validation commands.

Known beta limits

• We have not signed the Windows installer yet, so SmartScreen may show a publisher warning.
• DSCC checks GitHub Releases for updates and links you there. It does not install updates for you.
• Some controller and connection combinations still need hardware-matrix validation.
