Adjust Clutch Bite-Point 

The clutch bite-point (maximum output of the slave clutch) can be adjusted on the steering wheel: 

1.

 

push right joystick for 1s to enter bite-point mode 

2.

 

right LED lights up orange 

3.

 

adjust bite-point in 

1%

 increments by turning the 

left joystick 

or 

0.1%

 with the 

right

 one 

4.

 

push right joystick for 1s to exit bite-point mode 

 

It’s recommended to perform this procedure while in the virtual race car from top-down by pulling the 

slave clutch completely and then lowering the value until the vehicle starts moving. Race starts are 

performed by pulling both (m) and (s) clutches completely and when the starting lights turn green 

letting go just the (m) clutch. The overall clutch signal will jump immediately to the set-up bite point 

value. 

Once the ideal bite-point is found and practice starts are performing as expected, the bite-point value 

is shown in the overview tab (analog inputs) when the slave clutch is pulled completely.

Mode-Switches 

The rear side of the steering wheel features 4 mode switches which change the behavior of encoders 

and  rotary  switches  (located  on  the  same  side  of  the  steering  wheel)  in  order  to  maximize  the 

performance and functionality. 

 

encoder mode-switch:

 changes the behavior of the top encoder push button 

 

push btn:

 standard mode (push button can be used as input in the simulation) 

 

shift:

 (push button can’t be used in the simulation) 

o

 

pressing the push button creates an additional encoder output 

o

 

adjust two controls with one physical encoder 

o

 

e.g. turn to adjust ABS – push & turn to adjust TC 

 

rotary mode-switch:

 changes the behavior of the 12-position rotary switch 

 

12-pos:

 standard mode (each position is an individual output) 

 

shift:

 (rotary can’t be used in the simulation) 

o

 

each rotary position changes the output of the thumb encoder 

o

 

adjust 12 controls with one physical encoder 

o

 

e.g. pos. 1 = ABS / pos. 2 = TC / pos. 3 = MAP / pos. 4 = Volume … 

o

 

left rotary switch shifts left thumb encoder and vice versa 

 

6.6.

 

Simucube Button 

The 

left joystick push button

  acts as  a 

Simucube Button

  which  allows  changing of  force  feedback 

parameters on-the-fly.  

 

enter 

SC Button Mode

 by pushing left joystick button for 1s 

 

select parameter by pushing joystick in a direction 

o

 

Up: Overall Strength 

o

 

Left: Damping 

o

 

Right: Simucube Force Reconstruction Filter 

o

 

TBD 

 

increase/ decrease parameter by rotating the joystick encoder 

 

holding the direction for more than 2s resets the parameter to previous value 

 

exit 

SC Button Mode

 by pushing left joystick button for 1s 

 

Each point above will give a recognizable audible feedback (if enabled).
