TH8A connectivity and functionality test
Product number : 4469030
On PS4 and PC, your TH8A can be connected in two ways: directly to the USB port (using the provided DIN-USB cable) or behind your servo base (using the provided DIN-DIN cable, provided that your servo base has a DIN connector).
When connecting the TH8A in USB on a PC, you can test its functionality by following these steps:
- press the WIN and R keys on your keyboard at the same time
- type "joy.cpl" (without the quotation marks) in the "Run" window and press "Enter"
- In the new window that opens up, double click on the name of your TH8A and then test all its gears
When connecting the TH8A to your servo base, it will no longer be displayed in the “Game controllers” panel. In order to test the TH8A, you will need to:
- make sure that it is in sequential mode
- open the properties of your servo base using the above instructions
- test the shifter: its + (plus) and – (minus) gears should read as the number 1 and 2 buttons of the racing wheel
