Getting started

Install SimDeckOS and put live telemetry on your Stream Deck in a few minutes.

What you need

  • Windows 10 or 11
  • SimHub (free) — the telemetry engine SimDeckOS plugs into
  • An Elgato Stream Deck (any model) plus the Stream Deck software

Install

  1. Install SimHub if you don’t have it yet, and run it once.
  2. Run the SimDeckOS installer — it adds the SimHub plugin and the Stream Deck companion in one step.
  3. Open SimHub → the SimDeckOS plugin tab and connect your Stream Deck.
  4. Pick a profile (or let it auto-switch by game) and start driving.

If Windows SmartScreen warns on first run, the installer just isn’t code-signed yet — choose More info → Run anyway.

First profile

SimDeckOS ships with ready-made profiles. Load any sim and the plugin maps your keys and dials automatically — flags, delta, tyres, fuel and shift lights, with no per-game configuration.

To customise, open a key or dial in the editor and pick a value by name (see Telemetry setup). Profiles can switch themselves per game and per car as you load into a session.
