Hand Controller Support

Any Microsoft® Windows® compatible game controller can be used with the Pro 4, but each controller requires a configuration file to map the joystick, buttons and knobs to the ROV functions. VideoRay Cockpit currently includes two hand controller configuration files, the VideoRay industrial hand controller, and the Logitech® Cordless RumblePadTM 2. These controllers are auto detected on start-up. Other controller configuration files are available online from VideoRay for these and/or other controllers. Customer controller configuration files can also be created by users. See the Hand Controller Customization section of the Customization Guide for more information.
