The TSS Handbrake Sparco Mod+ offers two primary operating modes: Progressive Handbrake and Sequential Shifter. A switch on the side of the unit allows you to select the desired mode.

4.1. Progressive Handbrake Mode

In this mode, the lever functions as a progressive handbrake, ideal for rally and drifting simulations. The resistance increases as the lever is pulled, providing precise control over braking force.

Figure 4.1: The unit configured in Rally mode, with the lever in a vertical position for handbrake use.

4.2. Sequential Shifter Mode

When switched to sequential shifter mode, the lever provides distinct upshift (+) and downshift (-) actions. This mode is suitable for racing games requiring rapid gear changes.
