1 General information

All SimWorld hardware is natively suported by ProSim - no external driver necessary.

MIP, Pedestal, Gauges and MCP is connected with CAN bus technology. A power cable and CAN bus ‘connection’ cable will be connected to a “SimBox”. The SimBox will be connected to the primary computer.

The IO modules will be connected automatically when the "SimWorld hardware support" is enabled in the driver page (see below). The USB should be connected as HID device without any driver installed.

Always follow the instructions supplied with the hardware!
