    Default Interact Concept 4 Racing Wheel for Dreamcast: Manual and Power Requirements

    Hello Everyone,


    I purchased a used Interact Concept 4 Racing Wheel for Dreamcast without a manual a few weeks ago. I had a very difficult time finding information on how to configure the wheel. Thanks to the help of a very generous eBay seller, I was able to obtain a scan of the relevant pages from the manual. I thought it would be nice to post those pages here for others who may be searching for this information.

    In addition to the relevant manual pages, I would like to mention the power requirements of the wheel. An AC adapter is required only for the force feedback feature to work. The unit uses a DC 9V 1000mA AC adapter with a center *negative* polarity and a 2.5mm plug. Most AC adapters are *not* center negative. The stock AC adapter that comes with the unit is unregulated.


    Regards,
    Chris Hozian

    EDIT: I just re read your post , just ignore me thanks Chris
    Cheers

    It appears that my attachments were removed for reasons unknown to me. I'll attempt to repost the attachments in the next couple of days. I don't have access to that information at the moment.

    Okay, I edited my first post to include the pages that I had originally attached. It's not allowing me to attach files to a post anymore. I had to upload the pics to my Google Picasa web albums to host them.

    I hope these are helpful to you!

    Hi! I just bought an used Interact Wheel today, and I tried it on my favorite game: F 355.
    I was really disappointed because one cannot use both the paddles and the levers: they have the same functions, and, as I understood, there is no way to program these, so one has to choose and use only one! That is weird, because the Thrustmaster Ferrari wheel allows to use both. And it is even recognized by the console, there is no need to program or change anything...
    I will keep my Ferrari wheel for me and the Interact one for my friends!

    Did you manage to find the AC adapter? And if so, where?
    Thanks for your answer.
