New Build motion Sim

Just multiply by .621

This is the part I think deals with speed and it already has the math to convert it

the line Vel=round(Vel/1.609); from googling around should be what sets MPH ive tried playing with the line
but no luck

@prodigy you are correct 100KPH divided by 1.609 is 62MPH

void Display_Velocidad()
{
switch(TramaSerie[2])
{
case 255:
module.setDisplayToString("r", 0,0);
break;
case 0:
module.setDisplayToString("N", 0,0);
break;
default:
module.setDisplayToString(String(TramaSerie[2],DEC), 0,0);
}
Vel=(TramaSerie[4] << 8)| TramaSerie[3];
if (SYSTEM==ENGLISH)
{
Vel=round(Vel/1.609);
}
Velocidad=String(Vel,DEC);
Speed=Velocidad.length();
switch (Speed)
{
case 1: Velocidad2=" "+Velocidad;
break;
case 2: Velocidad2=" "+Velocidad;
break;
default: Velocidad2=Velocidad;
break;

}
module.setDisplayToString(Velocidad2, 0,5);
Modo_Hud=0;
}

I tried that to still no joy

Same here, had a quick try, no luck.

EDIT:

I have tested the code myself and read the readme file a bit and found proper solution.
There is a line at beginning of Arduino code:

const byte SYSTEM=METRIC; //shows KMH

change it to
const byte SYSTEM=ENGLISH; //shows MPH

And if someone want to displayt his name when starting the dashboard - as some signal sign that dashboard is connected, find this part of Arduino code and add the bolded piece:

void setup()
{
// Inicializar puerto serie a 9600 baudios
Serial.begin(9600);
Modo_Hud=-1;
Mode_Buttons=0;
Previous_Mode_External=0;
External_Control=true;
module.clearDisplay(); //clears the display
String name = "PrOdIgY"; //sets a start up name
module.setDisplayToString(name); //prints the name
delay(3000); //small delay 3.0 sec
module.clearDisplay(); //clears the display
}

Change my name "prodigy" to whatever you want, but keep in mind that it cannot display diagonal lines, so letter like "R" or "K" would not display nice, experiment with lowercase or uppercase letters like I did.

#define METRIC 0

works a treat thank you

I have edit my post above with proper solution which I've found in creators readme file.
The solution before was working accidentally I guess

Thankyou so much

@prodigy Thank you for the solution and thank you for the display name its nice to see something displayed on the tm1638 so at least you know the arduino code has worked

@Nath Older sorry for the little highjack of your thread but we got there in the end

@Daguru Not a problem. It was mainly down to you that I now have a working dash readout. Thanks guys, much appreciated.

So, I finally get my Sim up and running along with a simple dash. Cant believe how good it feels.

I'd like to thank EVERYONE who has helped me out and made this possible, I rate this forum as one of the very best on the net, great people and a very good easy to use website.

Here is a quick video i put together, not the best but just a simple one to show you guys my SIM



i'm sure I will be around alot as I already have some ideas to build myself a sequential gear changer and maybe a more advanced dash, but first I will enjoy what I have

Shame ya not using GameDash, it works well in all the games listed above and Im slowly but surely adding more content, I do have new code for the Ard but its a hex file from now on. Sorry it has appeared as well as my rc motion code all over the net with no credit coming back to the author so now all code I produce will be hex files , uneditable.

I am looking to use game dash, I just managed to get the other one working straight away, its only a simple dash at the moment but it will grow with more read outs so I will definitely be upgrading to game dash. Thanks for all the comments and help guys

Just thought id stop in and say, WOW i just cant stop playing on this sim!!

Oh, and this weekend i will be looking at upgrading to gamedash.

Hi guys, I have just been setting up my motion sim to work with Race07. I downloaded the game through steam, I have installed the plugins on both computers and have patched the game in my game manager, but for some reason I dont get any movement at all ? The Sim is working fne with rFactor but nothing on Race07. I think I have patched the game from steam correctly, Steam/SteamApps/Common/Race07 . When I start the game up, the game manager says, Game Running and my game engine starts as the "Axis Assignments" and "Interface Settings" are grayed out. But when i race i get no motion. Any ideas ?

have you done anything with tuning centre numbers yet?
