Beyond this in-game feature, the RevLEDs are also a helpful indicator in case
of any unexpected behaviour: While the wheel calibration runs after power ON
is proceeding, the RevLEDs of the wheel base show the current status. For
example, if no steering wheel is attached or is attached but cannot be detected
and identified, the three blue RevLEDs will not be lit.
After calibration run is completed the RevLEDs turn off automatically and the
game or software takes control.
7.5 Cooling system
To avoid damage to the CSL Elite Racing Wheel
there is an effective cooling system integrated to
the hardware, controlled by firmware.
7.5.1 Hardware measures
The CSL Elite Racing Wheel has a fan inside which carries out the hot air from
the inside of the CSL Elite Racing Wheel.
Make sure that there is nothing blocking the air intake at the back of the wheel
base.
7.5.2 Automatic fan adjustment
The firmware provides different stages of fan control which are clearly defined
after intensive testing in a R&D lab.
When switching ON, the CSL Elite Racing Wheel fan operates at maximum
speed until calibration run is completed.
The operation speed of the fan is adjusted according to the currently detected
temperature of the motor inside the CSL Elite Racing Wheel and could even
stop, depending on your firmware version.
The temperature control and fan behaviour is subject to change by firmware
updates.
