SAITEK R440 FORCE WHEEL

The Saitek R440 Force Wheel is the new driving force in wheels for the PC. With its streamlined design and Immersion’s® patented Touchsense™ technology inside, the R440 delivers the most realistic racing experience to your desktop. The force feedback technology puts you right on the racetrack – feeling every move you make in the game. Add to this a complete range of features - including pedals and gearshift paddles - and you have the perfect driving solution.

GETTING STARTED

Setting Up your Controller

1Before connecting the R440 Force Wheel to your PC, you need to connect it to your mains supply using the AC/DC adapter (supplied). This connects via the front of the unit next to the USB cable.

2 Attach the main wheel unit and the desk clamp as shown in the diagram.

3Position the steering wheel unit on the edge of your desktop, and turn the clamp grip clockwise until the unit is securely attached to the desk. Do not overtighten!

4Plug the cable from the pedal unit into

the socket in the steering wheel unit, making sure the connector clicks firmly into place.

5Attach the main pedal unit to the pedal unit base, making sure it clicks firmly into place. Next, place the complete pedal unit floor for your optimum driving position.

Saitek Smart Technology Software

Saitek Smart Technology software is the software that Saitek supplies for our high-end game controllers. The Smart Technology software comprises the product drivers for these Saitek controllers and the optional programming software. By keeping the two separate, the Smart Technology software offers two types of installation to suit the individual gamer’s needs, which means even more gamers can enjoy these quality Saitek products.

The Quick Install loads the product drivers only (all that is needed to use the controller) and is suitable for the new or Typical User. This install is fast and simple and will have the gamer up and running in no time at all.

The Full Install loads the product drivers and the Saitek Smart Technology programming software and is suitable for the Advanced User. The programming software delivers a powerful set of features for the ultimate configuration in the game. Although it is recommended for the seasoned gamer, it can be installed at any time. This gives the typical user a chance to get to know the controller before taking gaming to the next level.
