Tutorial SMC3 Arduino 3DOF Motor Driver and Windows Utilities

Hallo, i new in this forum.
Excuseme for My English.
I have a problem Whit motor two.
The motor two Not work.
I have a pololu driver.
If invert 1 whit 2 The motor work correctly.
I have test The Arduino output 4,5,10 whit anoter skatch And The Pin was ok.
Now why The motor two Not work ?
In The Smc 3 i have copy all Three motor.
Thank for reply.

As "worse the English" as better any screenshots, photos and videos.

ok

I use the translator who is best.
the engine problem I solved,
Now I do not understand 'cause I do not work live for speed.
I downloaded the latest version
Live for Speed S2 0.6J.
I followed the tutorial, but I did not move anything.
What can I check?

this is my "tester"

http://www.xsimulator.net/community...t-up-simtools-arduino-and-write-profiles.123/

thanks for the link, but the tutorial I followed was what.

I checked a few things.
I downloaded simtools 1.3
the plugin updater does not make me do anything.
it's normal?

Is it possible to set limits higher than 255 ? Or does that not make sense ? I am currently testing my axes and noticed that the 255 limit is near the mechanical limit of my arms.
So i wanted to limit it further but 255 is max it looks like.

If your clip respectively max limit is too low then you have to use some gears because the limit is your potentiometer and not the mechanical design.

Hmm i don't understand your answer. Why do i need gears or a different potentiometer ?

I wanna limit his possible movements not increasing them.

Huh? Using gears they reduce or expand any potentiometers. If you want to limit the movements, you have to expand the movement on the potentiometer to get the best results.

Ah ok. But changing the whole mechanical design because of just 5mm missing limit on one side, so i not wanna do that.

So why does the software have a limit of 255 and not maybe 270 whats the reason for that ? Because the pot is still moving a lot, still move in the kohm ranges, so should be still ok for the analog input of the arduino.
Is it only the loss of resolution, is it that bad ?

Gonna move the middle point of the axe a little, because up i have plenty room and way over 255 limit, guess that's the best option without changing too much.

0 value + 255values =256 values = 8bit

So 255 is max pwm value.

May be a POT scaling can be useful here ... @pipis2015 @Lorien31 see the related FW v0.7 updates in the first post .

Updates Version 0.7

• Added a POT scaling input that can be used to scale the motion output based on the POT position

• POT scaling can be setup as one of two modes - Linear or non-linear

• DO NOT ENABLE POT SCALING UNLESS POT ATTACHED TO ARDUINO

• AN5 used for POT scaling input

• The non linear scaling is designed to try and reduce the overall motion but maintain the "smaller" movements as best possible - ie road noise and stuff, but scale back on the huge side to side motion you get in higher power cars.

​

what would be better to do if we want to reduce our movement permanently ?
gearing our pots or using SMC3 v0.7 with non linear pot scaling ?

IMO I do not understand your thoughts because we can reduce movements by any software like SMC3 or SimTools itself. The non linear pot scaling shows a big advantage if you change a car (like a F1) and you want to soft the shaking, or you want to leave the rig and would like to avoid any malfunctions...only a few examples.

@Pit sorry for not being so clear with my question .
i have learnt here(hope right ) we can reduce our movements with simtools axis limiting or using low %values in axis assignments or using a big clip input value in SMC3 or gearing our pots like you have done with your rig or using a pot with less deg of rotation.
with my current pots my motors have 180 deg movement and its to big for me and have reduced it permanently at 100 deg with SMC3 v0.7 and the non linear option.
is this the best way reducing movement without loosing any resolution and anything else or have to do it different way?
