Initial calibration
Before using the wheel, we recommend to walk through calibration of all paddles
found on the back of the wheel.
To make this an easier and more visual experience, let’s open the Windows Game
Controller program.
The quickest way to do this is to press the windows-key, type ‘Game Controller’ and
hit ‘enter’ on your keyboard. This will open the Windows Game Controller program.
Select ‘Grid by Simlab MPX’ from the list and press ‘Properties’ to access the
properties window. At this moment, we offer more inputs than possible to display.

Calibration Mode
The calibration is a very straightforward process, but first we need to enter the
Calibration Mode on the wheel itself. To activate the wheels’ calibration mode, Press
and Hold the ADJUST (A) button and CALIBRATION MODE (CM) button at the same
time. Keep doing so for at least 5 seconds, until you see BUTTON 1 (top left) flashing.
Release both buttons when the wheel successfully entered Calibration Mode.
Calibration
Calibration is easy to do. Simply ‘press and hold’ one paddle for about a second,
release and you’re done. After this has been done with both clutches, the wheels’
firmware has registered the minimum and maximum values for travel. Press the
Adjust (A) button a single time to exit the Calibration Mode.

Clutch modes and bite-point adjustment
To make the most out of the dual clutches installed, they need to be set-up to your
liking and intended use.
Mode selection
We offer multiple modes for different uses. This can be changed on the fly on the
wheel itself. The three modes are:
• Dual-clutch: The 2 clutch paddles are working as 1 analog input. Left-side is the
adjustable bite-point clutch and the right-side clutch is the master.
Bite-point adjustment available ONLY in this mode.
• Analog: The 2 clutch paddles are working as 2 separate analog inputs.
• Switch: The 2 clutch paddles are working as a momentary switch.
To switch modes, Press and Hold the ADJUST (A) button and Press the mode of
your choice. (1) Dual-Clutch, (2) Analog, (3) Switch. Release both buttons after you
have made a selection.

Bite-point adjustment
Bite-point adjustment is available only in the DUAL-CLUTCH mode. If you are not in
this mode, please see the previous page on how to switch to this mode. Also, it is
important that both paddles are calibrated before adjusting their behavior. Please see
Page 7 before following the steps on this page, if you have not calibrated your clutch
paddles already.
To adjust the bite-point, Press and Hold the ADJUST (A) button and the left clutch
paddle (LC) fully. Next, start by dialing in the bite-point roughly by using the Coarse
(C) adjustment knob, tweak using the Fine (F) adjustment knob.
The Coarse (C) adjustment adjusts in roughly 10% increments, while Fine (F) roughly
does 1% of adjustment. This way you can really dial in your clutches without
compromise.

SimHub configuration
If you haven’t connected the wheel with the supplied USB cable to your computer,
this is required from this point forward.
As per SimHub version 8.3 we have included presets for devices.
These device presets already come with LED profiles by default. They are intended to
be very basic profiles which work fine for most people. These are meant to be more
‘plug and play’ oriented.
In case you do want to go all the way with your LEDs, which we encourage, you can
pick the generic ‘GRID by SIM-LAB’ device preset. In there you can add your own
fully custom LED profiles, or add ones downloaded from the GRID discord:
https://grid-engineering.com/discord
Activation
To use the wheel with SimHub, it needs to be added as a device:
Press ‘Devices’ (1) and ‘Add device’ (2) when you see are adding a device for the first
time.
