The online racing simulator
Fanaleds freezes/crashes with SRW-S1
The Fanaleds application crashes every 5-10 minutes and the shifting lights on my SRW-S1 wheel stop working and freezes.

I then need to go to the Fanaled application and try to exit the program which takes some time since it responds very slowly. One mouse click takes 4-5 seconds before it is recongnised. After another 10 seconds the lights on the wheel go out and I can start Fanaleds again and play for another 5-10 minutes.

The first day I played it worked flawlessly but the next day the crashes started. Perhaps it had to do with rebooting my PC? Just a thought...

I have searched various sources and tried:

1. Changing USB-port from USB 3 to USB 2.
2. Various settings in the Fanaleds application.
3. Various settings in lfs.cfg.
4. Tried with and without typing "/INSIM=29999" in LFS and enabling it in the Fanaleds application. (B T W, the shifting lights seem to work without INSIM so what is INSIM for anyway???)


Anyone that had the same problem that I have and possibly have a solution?

Many thanks!
I don't know much about the Fanaleds, but I would assume you want LFS to send an OutGauge packet and not an InSim packet. In the LFS cfg.txt there are some options for OutGauge.
Thanks for your reply!

I have set the OutGauge parameters according to Fanaleds instruction. The shifter lights do work for a while. It was also according to Fanaleds instruction that I used the Insim command (but I don't know what it does).
There's a problem with that wheel we've found which causes a USB overload. We're working on a fix for it.

You're best of asking Fanaleds-related questions on our forum. I don't think anyone else here has experience with it.
Ok, at least I know that I am doing nothing wrong on my side. I am looking forward to an update of your otherwise great product!

Thanks!
nice to hear, because i have the same problem
We have a beta version running right now. If we don't come across any problems we plan to release a new version around the weekend.
Great news!
Version 2.2 is out. There are various bugfixes, including the freezing when you use a SRW-S1. Please let me know if this solves your issue.

Tested for approx 30 min and it works like a charm. I can even run a digital speedo app (using the same outgauge port) together with fanaleds which makes me very happy!

Thanks!

will be tested this evening!!
