Muntatge dels pedals

The ClubSport Pedals v3 are designed for stable mounting to a racing cockpit or pedal stand. It is highly recommended to mount the pedals securely to prevent movement during use, especially given the strong force feedback of the brake pedal.

1. Position the pedal set on your desired mounting surface.
2. Align the mounting holes on the pedal base with the corresponding holes on your cockpit or stand.
3. Secure the pedals using appropriate bolts and nuts (not included, typically provided with cockpit/stand). Ensure all fasteners are tightened firmly to prevent any flex or movement.

• Gestió de cables: Ensure all cables are neatly routed and not pinched or under excessive tension to prevent damage.
• Comprovació de fixació: Periodically check all mounting bolts and screws for tightness, especially if the pedals are frequently moved or subjected to intense use.

Resolució de problemes

Pedals Not Responding

• Comproveu les connexions: Ensure all cables (USB or wheelbase connection) are securely plugged in at both ends.
• Cicle d'alimentació: Disconnect and reconnect the pedals. If connected to a wheelbase, power cycle the wheelbase and console/PC.
• Driver/Firmware (PC): Verify that the latest Fanatec drivers are installed and the pedal firmware is up to date. Reinstall drivers if necessary.
• Port USB: Try connecting to a different USB port on your PC. Avoid using unpowered USB hubs.

Vibration Motors Not Working

• Configuració del programari: Ensure vibration feedback is enabled in the Fanatec control panel (PC) or within the game settings.
• Compatibilitat del joc: Confirm that the game you are playing supports vibration feedback for pedals.
• Controlador/Firmware: Ensure drivers and firmware are current.

Excessive Pedal Movement / Base Lifting

• Muntatge segur: This issue often arises from insufficient mounting. Ensure the pedal set is firmly bolted to a stable cockpit or stand. If using on a floor, consider a non-slip mat or a dedicated pedal plate.
• Brake Stiffness: The brake pedal can be very stiff. If it causes the base to lift, consider adjusting the elastomers to a softer configuration or ensuring your mounting solution can withstand the force.
