CSW Porsche 911 GT3 with PBME(Podium Button Module Endurance) & CSL Elite wheelbase...

Todd Malek

Greetings,

So I'm thinking of purchasing this rim package to go with my CSL Elite WB, with the intention of upgrading to the DD1 in the near future.

Is there anything that I should be aware of?

With all the latest firmware updates, is the PBME compatible yet with CSL WB?

Will I need to upgrade to the Podium HUB & paddle module in order for this wheel to work in full torque mode on the DD1?

Thanks for the help!

Todd.

No.

Will I need to upgrade to the Podium HUB & paddle module in order for this wheel to work in full torque mode on the DD1?

You can use the full torque with ClubSport Steering Wheel Porsche 911 GT3 R.

Hello,
do we know when it will be compatible with CSW V2.5 please?

Thank you.

PBME is compatible with CSW V2.5 since driver 373.

So I've decided to upgrade to the DD1 first instead of the rim. Maybe sometime in the new year I'll get a Podium series GT rim if all works out fine with the DD1.

Cheers!

First of all sorry for my broken English, I am an old Frenchman and I don't speak much English so I use a translator.
Thank you Hristo for your answer.
But I don't understand anything anymore ... on the ClubSport Steering Wheel Porsche 911 GT3 R Leather page,in compatibility
there is this:see picture 1


and on my "Fanatec properties" page I have this: see image 2 
I am in version 334 ? and I am up to date according to Fanatec ...

I would love to buy myself this steering wheel for Christmas so I would like to be sure it will work on my CSW V2.5

Thank you.

PBME support was added with driver 373:

"ClubSport Wheel Base V2.5 

• Added beta(!) support for Podium Button Module Endurance, please provide feedback if you already have one. This is not officially supported yet and not guaranteed to work perfectly. Please update the wheel base firmware before attaching the button module. It can take a couple of seconds until the driver shows the BME.

You have driver 334 and wheel base firmware 639.

You need driver 381 and wheel base firmware 680.

Thanks Hristo for this quick answer and thanks for the link
I was finally able to download the 381 drivers
and then he offered to install the 680 driver ...
thanks for everything.

Hey Eddie, Keep monitoring that Beta Driver forum thread on a weekly basis. They have been updating a little more frequently lately.

Also keep an eye on the Fanalab forum as well. https://forum.fanatec.com/categories/fanalab

Thanks Todd, I'm new to Fanatec, I don't have all the tips yet, no forum addresses or other important stuff.
