Question Issue with connetion belt tightener

Hy guys, im running an belt tightener for my racing sims, its an china-adruino with two servos and and extra power supply. problem is i plug it in it runs fine for about 5 minutes then it tightens but dont let go anymore. only when im unplugging it it works again. can you help me with that

thanks

Do you have the source code for the program the Arduino is running? There was another guy here who had what sounds like a similar issue in his wind Arduino. Turned out his system was especially sensitive to the input routine in the Arduino.

The code in this post fixed it for him. With the source code for yours you could adapt what I did here into it. Can’t say that this is your issue but it could be something about USB now may be interacting with the way the original routine handled input. Your symptoms at least sound similar. If you look a few posts before this one you can see how he described his symptoms and see if this might be worth pursuing.

Wow, i didnt thought i would get that fast a reply and help. Id worked perfectly! Thanks

Armin, you mean substituting the input routine for the one in your code fixed the issue?

Exactly. It wasnt the one from this forum but on virtualracing.org there is on the forum a thread with a code for this, just replaced it and it worked! Had a race yesterday for about an hour everything worked fine!

Hey Armin, that’s great! Glad it helped!

Would you mind posting the input routine as you used in the belt tightener program?

Are you using Sim Tools and Game Dash or just Sim Tools?

I'm asking because I’m working on another issue. Thanks!

Hey, yeah sure. Sorry for the late reply

We used this file
RC Model Code for Arduino UNO - 2DOF - Expandable 2.0
From this forum
And the rc modelsimtoolsmode.ino in the .rar

Thanks!

Hy, im sorry but i need to ask another thing. ive reinstalled my pc cause of gpu issues. i reinstalled simtools and dame mangaer. placed setting in simtools. it works when i test output in the software.
put the file in plugin manager installed it. patched it also. but it doesnt work ingame. im sure im just forgettibg something. but got no ide what. could you help me with that?
Thank.
btw. when the game is running looks like this

Check that you have the axis settings saved under assetto corsa competizione and not just the default game profile.

How do i do that?

Click on Axis assignments on the left and you should be able to select assetto corsa competizione under the Game list via the drop down. The Output testing only checks the default profile.

i have...still....

The only other thing I can think of is to try un-patching and then re-patching the game.

i tried. did you copy the whole content from the file in simtools folder? the minmax and Banner?
When i choose competizione on Game Manager profile editor it shows no graph. bur it did before

Yep, thats it. I opened the folder with the plugin and put it in the plugin updater. And didnt put the whole folder in plugin updater. Had to read the manual to learn it. Sorry my bad.
