Resetting the Ricmotech RealGear GTpro Pedal PCU
The PCU on the pedals may become unresponsive if poor calibration values are set. This can occur by
pressing the program switch on the PCU in random patterns or by loading
“
empty
”
saved profiles.
Resetting involves returning the PCU to a
“
safe
”
calibration and then recalibrating each pedal so the PCU
learns their respective true start and stop points.
Step 1
–
Recovering to a
“
safe
”
calibration
1.
Unplug the USB cable from either the PCU or PC end (whichever is most convenient)
2.
Press and hold the
“
number 1
”

3.
Plug the USB cable back in
4.
Wait at least 2 seconds
5.
Release the program switch
The PCU should now have a
“
safe
”
calibration loaded. You may test the pedals on the PC and you should
see the axis move on screen. The axis will not move within their full range however. This will be
corrected in the next steps.
