Hi there, just wondering if a Comprehensive USB Type A Male to Mini DIN 6-Pin Female Mouse Adapter would also work to convert a Fanatec sequential shifter from the CSR set for use as a button.

The idea is I use my h-shifter occasionally and have it mounted. When not using it I use it as a handbrake. But I have this unused sequential shifter lying around and was wondering if I could convert it to a handbrake for use while the hshifter is hooked up.

So it looks like that adapter matches the extra cable I have, but would it work, or do you think it would work? And would the adapter allow for the buttons to be detected or does it only work for a keyboard?

Unless magically the shifter outputs Keyboard Keycodes, it probably won't work.
