Every device SimHub supports natively
Last updated · SimHub 9.11.22
SimHub 9.11.22 lists exactly 217 natively supported devices in its device picker, covering steering wheels with built-in displays and LEDs, standalone dash units, USB screens, haptic pads and ambient lighting. SimHub markets this as "200+" and does not publish the list anywhere, so the only way to see it is to open the picker. Anything not on it can often still be driven through an Arduino running SimHub's own firmware, which is a separate route rather than a device entry.
This page is read from the interface rather than assembled from marketing copy, and it is stamped with the version it came from. If you are checking whether a specific product works before buying it, that distinction matters.
217 devices, as of 9.11.22
SimHub's Pick a supported device dialog reports its own result count in the bottom right. On 4 August 2026, against SimHub 9.11.22, it reads 217 result(s).
That figure is worth having because the official position is a rounded marketing number and there is no published list to check against. If you want to know whether your wheel or dash is supported, this dialog is the authority — and it is in front of you, in the software, for free.
This number will be wrong eventually, and that is the point. Devices are added in most releases. The value of stamping it with a version is that you can tell how stale it is. We re-read it rather than carrying it forward.
How to check your own device in ten seconds
Open Devices from the left menu
It sits between Cars settings and Statistics.
Add a device
The Pick a supported device dialog opens.
Look at "Devices found on your system" first
SimHub detects what it can see already. If your hardware is there, you are finished — select it and move on.
If not, filter the manual list
There is a type-to-filter box above the device grid and a brand list down the left. Search by brand first; product names in the picker do not always match the box the product came in.
If it is not there at all, use Add standard device
That is the route for generic hardware — an HDMI or DisplayPort monitor, an AX206-based LCD, an Arduino-driven build. Absence from the list is not the same as being unusable.
The brands in the picker
The brand filter is alphabetical. Visible in 9.11.22, from the top of the list:
- 3DRap — Roger, Viri, Vota
- 3D-Simgear — LED-Flag, LED-Flag Plus, Racedash
- Acelith
- AlphaTecRacing
- Apex Sim Racing
- Ascher Racing
- Asetek
- AX206 (Generic) — the generic driver for AX206-based USB LCDs
- Base Performance Simulators
- BavarianSimTec
- Chimaera Racing
- Conspit
- Corsair — including the Nexus LCD, which needs no driver
The list continues well beyond Corsair; those are what is visible without scrolling. The pattern is what matters: SimHub's native support is broad across sim racing wheel and dash manufacturers, and the presence of generic entries like AX206 (Generic) means whole categories of unbranded hardware are covered by one entry rather than by model.
Recently added, from the release notes
Devices confirmed in 2026 release notes and the wiki:
- Simagic MagicDash 4 — over USB and AirLink
- Simagic Zeus GT, Formula and Sport wheels
- VPG Mission Sim
- Conspit CSD Nano
- SimSportGadget SSG Dashboard Display DV-5 and DV-8
- Fanatec pedal motors, over USB — driven from ShakeIt Motors
- Gametrix pads and the ForceFeel pad
- Next Level Racing HF8
- Multitouch on compatible bitmap displays
USB displays for Dash Studio
A separate category: small screens that plug into USB and show a dashboard, without occupying a graphics output.
| Display | Sizes | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| VOCORE | 4", 4.3", 5", 6.8", 3.4" round | The common choice. Needs the VOCORE driver. |
| USBD480 | WQ40 and variants | Separate driver builds for Windows 8 and for Windows 10/11 — install the right one. |
| AX206-based LCDs | 3.5" tested | Generic, inexpensive. Covered by the AX206 (Generic) entry. |
| Turing Smart Screen | 3.5", serial | Roughly 3 seconds for a full refresh, partial updates only. |
| Corsair Nexus LCD | — | No driver needed. |
The Turing Smart Screen's refresh rate is not a typo. About three seconds for a full screen refresh, with partial updates in between. That is fine for a static readout — fuel, position, lap time — and unusable for anything that moves, such as a rev bar. This is exactly the kind of thing worth knowing before you buy, and it is why it is stated plainly here.
Drivers for all of these are collected on SimHub's own device driver installation page, which also covers CH340G and FTDI for Arduino builds.
Ambient lighting, and its hard limits
SimHub can drive room lighting from telemetry. Each supported system has a ceiling, and the ceilings are low enough to matter when planning:
| System | Limit |
|---|---|
| Adalight | — |
| Bluetooth flood lights (Happy Lighting compatible) | — |
| Govee, "Dreamview"-compatible | Maximum 10 segments. LAN control must be enabled |
| Philips Hue | Hard limit of 12 lights per area. Requires Entertainment mode |
| Razer Chroma | Maximum 5 external areas, via Chroma Link |
The developer has stated there are no plans to add other brands, so this list is unlikely to grow. If your lighting is not here, it is not coming — plan around one of these five or drive LEDs directly from an Arduino.
If your device is not on the list
Not being in the picker means SimHub has no built-in definition for it. It does not mean you are stuck.
- Build it on an Arduino. SimHub's own firmware drives RGB LEDs, 7-segment displays, OLED and LCD modules, servo gauges and matrices. This is the route most custom hardware takes, and it is well documented.
- Use a generic entry. AX206 (Generic) and the standard monitor entry cover whole categories of unbranded hardware.
- Check for a plugin. Some manufacturers ship a SimHub plugin rather than getting a device definition — the plugin directory covers what exists.
- Author a device definition. The newer manual site has a Device Definition Authoring section covering communication protocols and supported screens. This is the advanced route, and it is how new devices get added in the first place.
Common questions
How many devices does SimHub support?
217, as reported by the device picker in SimHub 9.11.22 on 4 August 2026. SimHub markets this as "200+" and does not publish a list, so the picker itself is the only authority — the count is in the bottom right of the Pick a supported device dialog.
Where is SimHub's list of supported devices?
There isn't a published one. It exists only inside the software, in the Pick a supported device dialog under Devices. That is a genuine documentation gap rather than an oversight on your part.
Does SimHub work with my wheel?
Open Devices, add a device, and check "Devices found on your system" — SimHub detects a great deal automatically. If it is not there, filter the manual list by brand rather than by product name, since picker names do not always match retail packaging.
Can SimHub control my Philips Hue lights?
Yes, in Entertainment mode, with a hard limit of 12 lights per area. Govee is limited to 10 segments and needs LAN control enabled; Razer Chroma to 5 external areas. The developer has said no further brands are planned.
Which USB display should I get for SimHub?
VOCORE units are the common choice and come in several sizes. Avoid the Turing Smart Screen for anything animated — its full refresh takes about three seconds, which suits a static readout and not a rev bar. Corsair's Nexus LCD needs no driver at all.
My device isn't in the list. Is it unusable?
No. Custom hardware is normally built on an Arduino running SimHub's firmware, generic entries such as AX206 (Generic) cover unbranded categories, some manufacturers ship a plugin instead of a device definition, and the manual documents how to author a device definition yourself.
Do supported devices need drivers?
Some do. VOCORE, USBD480 and AX206 displays each need theirs, and USBD480 has separate builds for Windows 8 and Windows 10/11. Arduino builds need CH340G or FTDI. Corsair's Nexus LCD needs none. SimHub collects them on its device driver installation page.
