    Hi X-simmers! I want to send, for example, current gear information from Live For Speed -plugin to my Arduino card through USO.

    How should I configure it in Math setup to send gear info to Arduino controller? I know it's value 60 in input, but it sounds weird to map to axis in Math setup... :?

    yep correct mate you need to setup an axis for gear and use the uso to send it to the arduino , in 8bit decimal then you have to rephrase the info from xsim to use the value correctly(thats the hard part) check my post - viewtopic.php?f=25&t=3332 .
    Should help im working on new dash with all parts produced onto pcbs for neatness should have some ready to post next week.
    Parts lists plus pcbs to print and etch an code for the arduino aswell xsim settings.
    Will include rmp meter, Gear indicator with dual shift lights, speedo - 3 digit, plus an lcd addon for lap times etc.
    If ya need live help mate always on msn.
