RC4-4DOF Issue

Re the Response ‘Volume’ knob:

  • anticlockwise stop is at about 7pm
  • clockwise about 4pm

Initially:

  • Kids were using Assetto Corsa
  • Response ‘Volume’ knob was set to maybe 5 or 6 to keep it a bit tamer for them
  • After a couple of hours I noticed the chair was barely moving
  • In Output testing even with the knob on 9 the chari was moving very slowly, at this time the knob would not have been fully clockwise, instead just enough to show 9 on the readout

  • With USB connected, game active & RC4 On via ESTOP switch
    • Display responds to dial:
      • When fully anticlockwise (approx 7pm position) reads as 0
      • Clockwise rotation of dial 1-3 indents reads 0
      • Clockwise rotation of dial 4 indents reads 1
      • Clockwise rotation of dial 5 indents reads 3
      • Clockwise rotation of dial 6 indents reads 5
      • Clockwise rotation of dial 7 indents reads 8
      • Clockwise rotation of dial 8 indents reads 9 at which time dial is at 9pm
  • With USB connected, game active and RC4 Off via ESTOP switch:
    • Display reads 9, no response to dial
  • With USB connected, game active & RC4 On via ESTOP switch, dial set fully anticlockwise (reads as 0) and then push in EStop switch:
    • display dims, and changes to 9
