WARNING! Photosensitive Seizures
A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual im-
ages, including ashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people who have
no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these „pho-
tosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games. These seizures may have a variety
of symptoms, including light-headedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking
of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also
cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking
nearby objects. Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these
symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms – children
and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures.
The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by taking the following precautions:
• Sit farther from the TV screen.
• Use a smaller TV screen.
• Play in a well-lit room.
• Do not play when you are drowsy or fatigued.
If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before play-
ing.
WARNING! Musculoskeletal disorders
Use of game controllers, keyboards, mice, or other electronic input devices may be linked to seri-
ous injuries or disorders. When playing video games, as with many activities, you may experience
occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. However,
if you experience symptoms such as persistent or recurring discomfort, pain, throbbing, aching,
tingling, numbness, burning sensation, or sti󰀨ness, DO NOT IGNORE THESE WARNING SIGNS.
PROMPTLY SEE A QUALIFIED HEALTH PROFESSIONAL, even if symptoms occur when you
are not playing a video game. Symptoms such as these can be associated with painful and some-
times permanently disabling injuries or disorders of the nerves, muscles, tendons, blood vessels,
and other parts of the body. These musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) include carpal tunnel syn-
drome, tendonitis, tenosynovitis, vibration syndromes, and other conditions.
While researchers are not yet able to answer many questions about MSDs, there is general
agreement that many factors may be linked to their occurrence, including medical and physical
conditions, stress and how one copes with it, overall health, and how a person positions and
uses their body during work and other activities (including playing a video game). Some studies
suggest that the amount of time a person performs an activity may also be a factor. If you have
questions about how your own lifestyle, activities, or medical or physical condition may be related
to MSDs, see a qualied health professional.

INTRODUCTION
COMPATIBILITY
Thank you for purchasing the ClubSport Steering Wheel Universal Hub for
Xbox One. This unique and innovative product allows the use of FANATEC®
wheel rims as well as most real race car wheel rims with your favourite sim
racing software without losing any input functionality; even the Tuning Menu
and telemetry display is integrated! Use a wooden rim to drive classic cars, or
a NASCAR-style rim for oval racing. What about a smooth, round rim without
shifter paddles for drifting, or a high-grip, compact rim for formula racing? The
possibilities are endless!
The ClubSport Universal Hub for Xbox One can be used with all compatible
wheel bases from Fanatec.
It can be tted with many popular original race car steering wheels rims from
brands like SPARCO®, OMP®or MOMO®which are used in real race cars.
Option 1: Using the original hole pattern
If the rim has a 70mm diameter pattern with 6 holes or 50mm diameter with 3
holes as shown in the drawing page 14, then you can directly attach the rim to
the Universal Hub.
Option 2: Drilling holes
Specialty rims with a smaller diameter are delivered with no holes at all.
If you print out page 16 in an A4 size, it can be used as a drilling template.
Option 3: Using an adapter
There are many adapters on the market to make almost any steering wheel rim
compatible to the popular 70 mm 6-hole pattern. Please ask the vendor of the
steering wheel rim.

5.2 Usage on Xbox One console
To use the Universal Hub for Xbox One on Xbox One console you have to
attach it to your compatible wheel base rst, make sure the Quick Release is
properly locked on the wheel bases’ shaft.
Then connect your wheel base to the Xbox One console by USB cable to one
of the consoles’ USB ports (see console manual for more detailed information).
The Universal Hub for Xbox One does not use a wireless data transmission and
the USB connection is required.
IMPORTANT: USB extensions and / or USB hubs can cause connection
issues.

13
Then switch on the wheel base by using the ‘START’ button at the wheel base.
After initial calibration run the wheel base will switch to Xbox mode automati-
cally, indicated by green lit ring of light around the wheel bases’ ‘START’ button
(see also above section 5.1 “Functions” of this user manual).
NOTE: Depending on the power settings of your Xbox One console it is
possible to wake up the console by the Xbox guide button of the Uni-
versal Hub for Xbox One. Therefore the power settings must allow the
resume feature while console is in stand-by. If the power settings are ad-
justed to have the console switched o󰀨 completely instead of stand-by
the user must switch on the console at the consoles’ start button and it
is not possible to wake up the console by Universal Hub for Xbox One.
Once the wheel base is connected to the Xbox One console the white status
LED on top side of the Universal Hub for Xbox One is lit and the user can op-
erate the console with the Universal Hub for Xbox One when the wheel base is
in Xbox mode with established connection and the console operating system is
booted (navigation in Xbox dashboard and inside games).
5.3 Usage on PlayStation®4 console
To use the Universal Hub for Xbox One on a PlayStation®4 console you have
to attach it to your PlayStation®4 compatible wheel base rst, make sure the
Quick Release is properly locked on the wheel bases’ shaft.
Then connect your wheel base to the PlayStation®4 console by USB cable to
one of the consoles’ USB ports (see console manual for more detailed infor-
mation).
IMPORTANT: USB extensions and / or USB hubs can cause connec-
tion issues.
Switch on the PlayStation®4 console and start the game you want to play.
IMPORTANT: We strongly recommend checking if the game you have
chosen supports the Fanatec wheel bases by FAQs on game websites
and / or with our Fanatec customer support team.
NOTE: After completing a rmware update of your compatible Fanatec
wheel base, the wheel base may initially start in Xbox mode. See section
5.1 (Functions) for the button combination to change the mode.

14
NOTE: Operating the PlayStation®4 dashboard, PlayStation®button, share
button and touch pad surface of the original PlayStation®4 controller are
not supported by FANATEC wheel bases and you need the original con-
troller for these functionalities and features.
5.4 Peripheral devices at consoles
To use further peripherals like pedals or shifters on consoles these devices
must be connected to the Fanatec wheel base and the wheel base is the only
device connected to the console.
NOTE: Please also check the quick guides and manuals of the corre-
sponding devices to get more detailed informations how to connect them
correctly.

ASSEMBLY
6.1 Plan your wheel
You can operate the Universal Hub for Xbox One without using any of the
additional buttons or paddle shifter units. Just bolt on a wheel rim and you are
ready to go.
Even on consoles you can fully operate the wheel by using the buttons on top
of the hub. For a classic wooden rim this would perhaps be the most stylish
solution.
You get more functionality and better ergonomics if you install the additional
button boxes and/or the FunkySwitchTM.
In Xbox One mode, PlayStation®4 mode and PC mode, the additional button
boxes are mapped with the same buttons you nd on the top side of the hub
(see section “Button Mapping” on page 19). On consoles additional buttons are
not supported, on PC it makes it easier to change wheel rims during gameplay
without changing the mapping in-game.
The addition of a fth button box is possible, such as connecting one of the
button boxes from the ClubSport Button Cluster Pack.
After you purchase a compatible wheel rim you should make the following
decisions:
• Number and positions of the button boxes.
•
How to mount the button boxes: Long or short lever, which side to connect
the lever with the button boxes (depending on wheel rim to be used)
• Position of the FunkySwitchTM
NOTE: The Universal Hub for Xbox One comes fully assembled to t to the
Fanatec Wheel Rim GT out-of-box and no further adjustments on button
box or FunkySwitchTM positions are necessary.

6.2 Mounting / adjusting FunkySwitchTM and button boxes
Open the case of the hub by loosing the four bolts on the backside.
Mechanical:
The ClubSport Universal Hub for Xbox One comes fully assembled out-of-box.
The button boxes and FunkySwitchTM are mounted between the main body
front plate and the wheel rim.
In case you only use just a single button box on one side you need to use
washer W1 (13.5 mm x 2.5 mm) between the
wheel rim and the hub base in order to avoid the
rim being slanted.
Please notice that the FunkySwitchTM cable
is bigger in diameter and there is only one of
the rubber cable protectors suitable for the
FunkySwitchTM cable. It is located on the left
hand side as shown on the picture:
Use Allen key 3mm

17
Note: The ClubSport Universal Hub for
Xbox One comes fully assembled out-
of-box. The following steps explain how
the assembly has to be done correctly in
case you want to change the number of
used button boxes or adjust their posi-
tions.
First you need to take o󰀨 the frontplate of
the Universal Hub by loosening the four
bolts on the backside as described above.
Then choose the holes where you want to
mount a button box or the FunkySwitchTM.
Please note that the holes with gears must
be used for mounting of the rim! Put on the
button box lever or FunkySwitchTM lever
on the outside of the frontplate. Then use
the special bolt S1 (M5 x 11 mm) and put
it through the lever’s hole and then through
the chosen hole on the frontplate. Turn on a nut N1 (M5 x 7.8 mm x 4.7 mm)
onto the bolt thread from the inside of the frontplate. Adjust the lever position
according to your favour and to the used rim and then tighten the nut N1 on the
bolt S1. The position of the button box or FunkySwitchTM is xed now.
Then connect the cable of the button box or the FunkySwitchTM to the specied
socket on the electronics. Please see further description about the sockets at
the end of this chapter as well as chapter 7 of this user manual.

After mechanical adjustment of the FunkySwitchTM you need
to make sure that the arrow is located on the top side. If this
is not the case you can loosen the small worm bolts and turn
the FunkySwitchTM. Tighten the worm bolts again after adjust-
ing the arrow position.
The button boxes can be mounted to short or long levers and on each of the
three sides of the button box.
When the button boxes are adjusted to your favourite positions and orientation
you can pull o󰀨 the button caps from the buttons and re-attach them onto the
buttons well orientated and aligned.
Electrical
The FunkySwitchTM needs to be plugged in at long socket labelled (ENCOD-
ER1). Connect the plug of the button box cable to any of the remaining 5 plugs
on the PCB labelled BUT_2 to BUT_6.
