    While referring to this site, I have been gradually making motion sims. Since the system was completed to some extent, I downloaded Simtools and tested it with LFS, the motor started to move messily even though the car was not moving (it reacts a little to steer, accelerator, brake) After a while, Simtools arbitrarily Has shut down. Why is this happening? help me!

    Please post pictures of all settings, plus more details of the build for context.

    What code is being used?

    Are the wiper motors ground isolated?

    Is the computer set to English local?

    thank you for your reply.

    The production of the motion sim proceeded while referring to the videos of these people.
    It was a very easy-to-understand and useful video.



    The parts used are as follows.
    Motor: Toyota Noah AZR65R wiper motor x 3
    Motor driver: BTS7960 43A x 3
    Potentiometer: HiLetgo 3590S-2-103L 10K Ohm BOURNS Rotary winding precision potentiometer pot 10 Turn (set of 3)

    I sketched the SMC3 v1.0 code to Arduino, rewrote it to MODE2, and tested it with SMC3Utils v1.01.
    Currently, the feedback of the potentiometer is delayed, so I'm thinking of changing the gear ratio.

    Up to this point, I proceeded without any problems, but when I tried testing with Simtools, the above-mentioned symptoms appeared.
    The language of the PC is set to English.

    LFS is just for testing, so I hope it works normally with AC or ACC that I really want to enjoy ...

    You need to sort the SMC3 settings so they behave and accurately track as expected, before messing with SimTools.
