    bonjour les amies mon simulateur marche bien les branchement sont bon car il marche 1fois sur /8 obliger de redemarrer le logiciel au moin 6/8 fois car lorsque je vais sur tur on uniquement pour faire un teste les barres roll...ect... ne marche pas alors je change de port a chaque fois dans interface setting puis par magie sa fonctionne , mon materiel n as aucun probleme le logiciel beug jai l impression , car meme lorsque je reussit sur turn on a bouger les barres Roll ...ect.. je le m es de suite en mode off et refait turn on et sa ne marche plus trop trop bizard pouvez vous m aider cher communuté car je deviens fou , jai l impression et je me dit que pour faire une partie je dosi faire ces manip pendans 20min a tous casser pour pouvoir jouer merci a vous coordialement

    hello friends my simulator works well the connections are good because it works 1/8 times force to restart the software at least 6/8 times because when I go on tur only to test the bars roll ... ect .. does not work so I change port each time in interface setting then by magic it works, my material has no problem the software beug I have the impression, because even when I succeed on turn we move the bars Roll ... ect .. I put it away in off mode and redo turn on and it does not work too much too bizard can you help me expensive communute because I'm going crazy, I have the impression and I told myself that to do a part I dosi do these manipulations during 20min to all break to be able to play thank you to you co-ordinately

    I have moved your thread to the appropriate section, the French section is only for social interaction.

    You can dual language post but it is part of the Forum Rules that you also include English, doing so via Google Translate is fine, which I have done for you: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/forum-rules.9527/

    We have bi-lingual speakers from many different language groups so if Google Translate really messes it up they can help clarify what was intended.

    With respect to your problem please post pictures of all of your SimTools settings and some information about your simulator, plus what code/hardware is being used to drive it.

    You need to include an English translation.

    You also need to explain what code you have used for the hardware that is interfacing with SimTools.

    As per my PM you need to refine your motion profile, in particular capture the Min and Max Tuning Center values and then refine them, here are the steps involved and you do one axis/force at a time: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/steps-to-create-a-motion-profile.228/

    I have no idea of what your Axis Assignements are but the Dir being checked orange or not determines which way each axis/force moves and this is what SimTools expects: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/which-way-to-set-simtool-axis-movements.230/

    Bonjour
    thank you for your help sir, but you did not understand what I mean. I tell you that when I press turn on in output testing the axes answer without problem, but when I leave the game and I come back on the game nothing responds even on output testing then turn on it does not work, its running once on 4, I think there is a problem with simtools

    If Output Testing does not behave correctly I would suggest it is a problem with the code you are running.

    I think you are using Sabertooth so would advise using the modified SMC3 code by @BlazinH, as there is a handy companion app to make set up really easy: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/arduino-codes-for-sabertooth-2x25-2x32-etc.137/

    My comment still stands with respect to properly refining motion profiles, based on the Tuning Center picture you sent me via PM.

    The setup instructions should be pretty clear: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...ket-serial-pid-motor-driver-w-softstart.9277/

    And more detailed PID tuning via the SMC3 Utilities companion app is covered here: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...3dof-motor-driver-and-windows-utilities.4957/

    Yes the Interface Settings in SimTools will be different, if that is what you mean. I am not sure how many Sabertooths or axis you are using but the Interface Settings will be like this, which is covered in the link above:

    [A<Axis1a>][B<Axis2a>][C<Axis3a>]

    Set for 10bit binary output

    Baud rate 500000 , N , 8 , 1 (10ms delay)

    I tried to have a look at his problem, but something is wrong with Simtools and I have no idea why :
    - He can start output testing and do some tests
    - When he stops testing, output testing is not responding (no movement). He needs to restart many times Simtools to get back motion... It works on another computer without issue.

    Sounds like something is conflicting or a issue with windows, as it is an issue with the specific computer.

    After reinstallation of the system, it seems working fine...
