Not sure if this has been posted before but I found out about this last night.

I mounted my CSW base without connecting the pedals but found that once mounted it was difficult to see which port I need to connect my pedal to so I checked the CSW Base Quick Start Up Guide. I installed my pedal into the port indicated on the QSG but my pedals would not work.

I removed my wheel from my rig to check out what the problem might be and as soon as I looked at the back of the wheel I found out what the problem was... the QSG is misprinted and shows the wrong port to plug the pedals into (as well as the wrong ports for Shifter 1 and Shifter 2.

Anyone else receive a misprinted QSG?

Good eye, missed that on the two I tested here prior to sending off.

I did make sure to send this link off to the current owners though.
 
If you are using the gear on a PC you should plug your pedals directly into your computer. IIBC if you plug your pedals through you wheel is it 8-bit resolution compared to 10-bit resolution if plugged directly into the PC.
 
I just found out the hard way about the misprint. I spent two hours researching why my pedals would not work when connected directly to my CSW. I even was about to buy a new PS/2 cable. LOL!
