Tutorial How to convert your Frex SCM to SimTools - Updated

好希望有懂中文的朋友带我一下

I have a question regarding SCN centering in Simtools. Maybe for @yobuddy ?

I am asking mainly because I am building a traction loss and want to know where the center will be, but when starting with Simtools my actuator re-centers itself automatically and it is extended 8 cm. When started with Simcommander4 it also recenters and is extended 9 cm. There is 1 cm difference between the two software. (I'm using both for different games)

SC4 uses the Inital Position: 55,248 value. I have not seen any similar values or if that can be adjusted somewhere in Simtools? So how does Simtools decide where the center of actuator is?

I have also noticed when using Output testing in Simtools, I cannot extend the actuator 100% even if the Axis Limit is set to 100%. On the initial centering when GameEngine is started, actuator goes to 100% up and down, but in the Output testing I cannot reach that 100% Up again.

Wow, what a dummy I am, I totally forgot new 2.3 Simtools was out..

With 2.3 update the SCN actuators are centering themselves fine now, exactly the same extension distance like in SC4.

Thanks yobuddy

Need some help ,
I purchased 2 usb-rs485 adaptors https://www.antratek.be/usb-rs485-module?___SID=U
When i connect them to my scn5 nothing happens
i got power on the actuators , but when i set them up in the software, they dont center, nothing moves, all i get is the error " one of your interfaces required game engine to be restarted"
I now they are on com3 and com4
is it possible that those usb adaptor are not compatible??

little update,
I got2 actuator centering now, my error was in the adjustment of the comports.
So i know now the usb adaptor work fine, changed the id of 1 actuator,
so happy now this step is completed.,

Everything working fine now, got motion in my games.
Very nice software

I have the exact same problem... What adjustment of the comport should I do?

Read the first post in this treath, onder 5 if gives a picture of how the comports must be set up;
If u have to change the id of 1 actuator, you need to download a tool, , i look into it and post it if thats the problem.

sim motion from frexgp is sim tools compatible now right??

Hi. I have 2 SCN5 actuators. Is it REALLY necessary to set the ID of both actuators to zero? (even with the latest version of SimTools?)
My actuators get centered, but I can not get them working in the game.
Thanks for your time.

Dude, can we share the Dyadic software?

Hi, I'm having the same problem, only one actuator is moving, but I can't find the software to set the ID=0
This link http://www.automation4less.com/servact1.htm take me to a page were I can't find the software.
Can someone show me where I can find it or upload it?
Thanks
