Game Port Requirements for SideWinder Force Feedback Controller

• Microsoft SideWinder Force Feedback Pro, version 1.0
• Microsoft SideWinder Force Feedback Wheel, version 1.0

SUMMARY

The SideWinder Force Feedback game controller is a high performance digital device designed to work with a standard IBM-compatible game port. In addition to using Digital Overdrive Technology, the SideWinder Force Feedback game controller uses MIDI output from the game port to send force feedback data to the controller. If MIDI is not available on the game port, a serial adapter is available to transmit force feedback data to the joystick.
