    Hi, I have already asked for this help but the few answers did not help me solve my need.
    What I need is the following: when I turn on the motion system and the computer, the workstation goes to 50% height...
    Instead I need it to remain low, to allow me to climb more easily. Then when the game starts, Simtool has to bring the postration to 50%.

    Someone told me to enter "shutdown" [A<40>][B<40>][C<40>] and it's worth 10 ms

    But it doesn't work, it always remains at the same height (50%)
    I use Arduino

    Tell me how to solve the problem, thanks

    Hi ProjectF1,
    From this screen it looks like it's possible to do this, great.
    But I am currently using Simtool version V2.6.
    Surely there is a method to do this also in version V2.6, but I don't understand how to do it.
    Here is the screenshot of the page:

    Can anyone tell me the solution to lower the simulator (when the game is not started), in Simtool V2.6 version?
    Thank you
