    Hello,

    I am new to the X-Sim Software and cannot find any help with the Documentation.
    The Docu says that you should get the exact same values that a specific plugin delivers.

    That is in my case the Grid - Plugin which gives Values between -2g and + 2g for lat and long acceleration in its output window.
    But in the Profiler i get values betwenn i.e. -180.000 and +180.000.
    Is there any way i can directly get these Values into the profiler or do i have to recalculate them to get the wanted values ?

    I did try some trial and error, but i do not understand why to hassle with the Values when the plugin should deliver i.e. -2g / +2g.

    Thanks in Advance

    Thanks, i did not see that.

    Is there any good approach to find the right range Parameters in the math setup / G-force curve ? e.g. i have an 8-bit microcontroller and want values, let´s say braking/accerlerating, from -255 to 255.
    How do i find the right values... just trial and error ?

    In my setup i needed to take a pos. max value of 200000 and a neg. max value of 500000. Which gives me a value from 30 to -30.
    Could someone please point out how this exactly works ?

    Thanks alot

    Yes, I found out with the spikes, it sends my jrk board on lateral force into overload. I even upped the current overload to 18.5 amp. When I reduce and soften it majorly takes away the roll effect, I think is needed in the dirty ol' mustang! ;D
