PLAYSTATION®3 GAMES COMPATIBILITY MODE
Your racing wheel has 2 modes in order to ensure compatibility with all PlayStation®3 games:
- “Force Feedback” mode
- “Emulation” mode
“FORCE FEEDBACK” MODE
- The wheel calibrates itself at game’s start = your racing wheel automatically switches to “Force
Feedback” mode.
- In this case, the games (for example GRAN TURISMO®) use the racing wheel’s SDK (Software
Development Kit) to configure the wheel and manage the Force Feedback effects.
- In these games, the T500 RS is recognized as a real racing wheel.
“EMULATION” MODE
- The wheel does not calibrate itself at game’s start = your racing wheel automatically switches to
“Emulation” mode.
- In this case, the games do not use the wheel’s SDK. Therefore, the wheel only uses the automatic
return to center function, not the Force Feedback function.
- In these games, the T500 RS emulates the official PlayStation®3 gamepad.
- Accelerator = R2 trigger on the gamepad
- Brake = L2 trigger on the gamepad
(if necessary, access your game’s “Options/Controls/Controller” interface to configure your racing wheel).
- Clutch pedal = not functional.
- Wheel rotation angle = 270°
