    In all of the images Game Manager is Off (top left), which means Game Engine is disconnected from the game.

    Does Output Testing work as expected on the Default Axis Assignment profile?

    @Thanos do you ave advice re AMC settings?

    If Output Testing does not work something is interfering with communications, if @Thanos and yourself both believe the board is working and is configured correctly. Try temporarily disconnecting the firewall and anti-virus to see if either of them is the culprit.

    Please try output testing again, but select the "( a ) Axis Assignments" to control from the drop down list in output testing.
    Do you get any movement?
    Take care,

    I know others are using this interface, are you using v2.4 of SimTools and the latest firmware for the AMC-AASD15A?
    @Thanos Any ideas buddy?

    For a SimTools installation on a single PC the IP address should be 127.0.0.1 for both Game Manger and Game Engine.
    Hope that helps,

    yeah i thought so
    ----

    but guess what @noorbeast , someone just helped me fix this problem
    in my case ,, u need to go to windows setting and then to time & language
    under related settings open Administrative language settings
    change all the language to English I'm not sure if it work with only US but that what I chose and Simtool finally working
    it only took me 7 months to fix this stupid problem
    actually I remember someone I think in discord mention that I need to change the input language but I didn't know about Administrative language setting I thought input language what was matter , also I searched online didn't see anyone mention it

    but heeh it's finally working
