Pedal Haptic Kitpedal haptics: 0–100 Hz, module and control box

A pedal that finally answers back

The MOZA Pedal Haptic Feedback Kit adds tactile feedback to your pedals. The box holds one PHF module and a control box: the module mounts on the throttle, brake or clutch and sends into your foot what you previously had to read off the dash — ABS activation, traction control, engine RPM, wheel lock-up, wheel slip and gear shifts. The module runs a motor with a working range of 0 to 100 Hz, twice that of the usual 50 Hz solutions, so effects stay distinguishable by character instead of blurring into one hum. The frequency and intensity of each effect are set in MOZA Pit House across 0–100 Hz and 0–100%. An integrated high-strength bracket keeps the module in place under heavy braking, when the pedal takes most of the load. The control box connects either straight to a PC over USB or to a compatible MOZA wheelbase over RJ11 — but only to one of the two at a time. The pedals themselves plug into the box over RJ45, and modules go into the THROTTLE, BRAKE and CLUTCH ports, so the kit can be expanded with separate PHF modules for a second and third pedal. MOZA SR-P, SR-P Lite, SRP2 and CRP2 pedals are supported. The module measures 40 × 41 × 61 mm, the control box 80 × 66 × 26 mm, power is 12 V 2 A and net weight is 98 g.

   The information arrives through your foot

   A wheel tipping into lock-up, ABS kicking in, the first hint of wheelspin — in a sim you normally catch all of this by ear and by the dash, which means late. The PHF module turns those events into vibration right at the pedal, and the reaction becomes reflexive: your foot eases off the brake before you have consciously registered what happened. Over a long run it noticeably steadies your braking.

   100 Hz instead of 50

   MOZA fits the module with a motor that works up to 100 Hz, twice the range of the common 50 Hz vibration units. The difference is not how hard it shakes but how legible it is: at higher frequencies the effects do not collapse into one uniform hum, and ABS feels distinct from a slipping wheel. Frequency and intensity can be dialled in per effect across 0–100 Hz and 0–100%.

3. 03

   The control box decides where the signal goes

   The control box is the other half of the kit and a mandatory part of the chain: the module will not run without it. One side carries the THROTTLE, BRAKE, CLUTCH and power ports, the other USB, PEDAL and WHEELBASE. The box takes telemetry either straight from the PC over USB or from a compatible MOZA wheelbase over RJ11. Connecting both at once is not allowed — MOZA states this explicitly.

   Start with one pedal, grow to three

   The kit includes one module, and the sensible place for it is the brake, where there is most to learn about grip. If you later want feedback on the throttle and clutch, separate PHF modules are available: the control box is built for three and already has the ports. That way you do not pay for a full set up front and can expand as you get used to the effects.

5. 05

   Bolts onto pedals you already own

   The module is designed for the MOZA SR-P, SR-P Lite, SRP2 and CRP2 pedal sets and attaches to the back of the pedal on an L-shaped bracket with the supplied hardware — MOZA documents a separate installation sequence for each series. The reinforced integrated bracket exists for the brake in particular: under high load the module must not shift. The upgrade does not require changing your pedals or your base.
