Question axis directions

Hi,
my project is making progress, my 2 pgsaw motors arrived. Now my problem:
In SimTool I configured the axis and made an output test. so far so good, so when I am testing pitch, both lever on the motors move up or down, depending if pitch is negative or positive on the slider.
when testing with LFS, and accelarate or brake the car, the two motors move in different directions, one up, the other down (like a roll).

why that ?
can someone help, pls ?

yes, noorbeast, I know the DIR checkbox and I used it already. But I am now irritated, how to setup and configure the axis. so that they are correct working in the output test of Simtools or with LFS ?
in the end, I want to play with PC2 and my PS4, but i am still in construction phase with a dummy setup and parts of Lego

Ok thanks, I need to check this.

So here comes my problem:
This is my config, only surge configured:



Then I did output testing:


So when Surge is put to the right, one axis goes left in the "Virtual Axis" menu, the other one right.
The motors in real life move in the same direction, the (dummy) sim is moving up.


These are pgsaw motors, where one gear was turned to the other side.

Now, when starting LFS, the virtual axis show a different behaviour, both virtual axis move to the left (when accelerating) and to the right when braking, but the motors in real life move in opposite direction, one up, onde down, like a roll force.
Here are pics attached:


So, do I need to ste the "dir" flag for one of the motors ?
In a different thread, there was said, that for surge and pitch either both direction flags are set or unset.

Any help ?
Thanks in advance !

mmh, but then the "setup" in the SMC3 utility will fail, as motor does not follow the line, right ?
Or do I miss anything ?

Ok, I will check what happens, when I swap the wires for one motor and let you know...

So, as expected, this won‘t work with SMC3 code, as motor is moving in opposite direction when setting a position...

So then just set only one dir flag for pitch and surge, and set both (or none) for roll and sway. For some reason I also have to do it this way, and for me it works.

yes, setting the dir flag for surge and pitch for one axis is the solution.
My explanation for this: I have 2 identical pgsaw motors, but then I turned the gear, so that the shaft is on the other side. result: two symmetrical motors.
But as the hallsensor also switched to the other side of one motor, I had to switch the cable for this motor to let SMC3 code working correctly.
Now you can either also switch the cable on the hallsensor from + to minus and vice versa, but this was not working for me, then I have no signal at all. So in the end, I set the dir flag and it works.

By the way, I got different results in Output testing and LFS as there a 2 profiles. One „default“ and one „Life for Speed“. And if LFS is running, this profile is taken, even if you have „default“ selected in the GameManager.
