Logitech Gaming Software (LGS) 8.70 and later has two special profile states for racing wheel profiles:

• Default — used when no other active profile is detected
• Persistent — overrides all app-specific profiles

NOTE: Not all Logitech racing wheels are compatible with LGS 8.70 (or later). Please refer to your racing wheel’s product specifications for software compatibility information.

Set a Default profile
LGS comes pre-installed with a Default profile. LGS uses the Default profile when no other profile is currently running. To assign any profile of your choice to be the Default profile:

1. Make sure that the racing wheel is connected to your computer, and then launch LGS.
2. On the LGS Home screen, navigate to the device selector at the bottom of the LGS window and click on the racing wheel’s device icon.
3. Navigate to the Steering Wheel or Pedals screen.
4. Navigate to the Profiles area at the top-right corner of the LGS window, and navigate to the profile you wish to set as Default.
   NOTE: For more information on navigating the list of available profiles in LGS, see View racing wheel profiles using Logitech Gaming Software.
5. Right-click on the desired profile and click Set As Default from the pop-up menu that appears.

   

   The profile will now be set as the default. If you right-click on profile again from the list, there should be a check mark next to Set As Default in the pop-up menu that appears. This will be the active profile when no other profiles are running.
   NOTE: To return to the pre-installed Default profile, follow all of the above steps, making sure to select Default Profile in step #4.

Set a Persistent profile
A Persistent profile is one you manually select to be used for all applications. It will override any application-specific profile assignments. You can use this to troubleshoot poor profile-performance or to simplify the configuration of your racing wheel. To set a profile as Persistent:

1. From the Profiles area at the top-right corner of the LGS window, navigate to the profile you wish to set as persistent.
2. Right-click on the desired profile and click Set As Persistent from the pop-up menu that appears.

   

   The profile will now be set as the Persistent profile. If you right-click on Profile again from the list, there should be a check mark next to Set As Persistent in the pop-up menu that appears. This will now act as the active profile whenever an application is launched, overriding any application-specific profile assignments.
   NOTE: To disable the Persistent profile, follow the above steps, and click on Set As Persistent in the pop-up menu that appears. The check mark should disappear and the profile will no longer override other profiles.
