    wishing to spend on software lince simtool
    in the configuration of two horizontal cylinders scn6
    in order to have the same movements (surge and Vibration)
    thank you for giving me the axes configuration items

    I am not sure what you mean, or what design you have in mind, can you clarify a bit more or perhaps provide a picture of what you want to do.

    my simulator is equipped with two cylinders placed horizontally (frame jcl)
    I use the software to lince logykal and I'd switched to simtool
    keeping the same effects or acceleration and braking
    and especially with the vibrations offered by the software lince,
    So you are there in the configuration parameter simtool about

    I am presuming you have the SCNs communicating with SimTools, if not then please see the FAQ SCN section: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/scn5-scn6.2/category

    It is important to in Axis Assignment go to Axis Limiting and for a SCN actuator select a value of 90%. This is very important to preserve your actuator in the long term. Not doing this can lead to mechanical damage: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/english-guide-for-scn5-interface.5507/

    It sounds like you want to configure surge and perhaps heave, the latter for road affects, is that correct?

    Grab a copy of the SimTools manual and keep it handy for reference: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/rtfm-start-with-the-official-simtools-documentation.117/

    And see the motion profile refinement tips here, in particular doing each axis individually and how to capture Max/Min values in the Tuning Center: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/steps-to-create-a-motion-profile.228/

    LINCE has the same effects than SIMTOOLS (an others). Just play with simtools until you got it right, For example, as all games, cars and tracks are different, they may not give you exactly the same vibrations and you should "play" with the heave and pitch sliders to beging with. Then maybe surge and so on. There are so many sliders and parameters to tinker,,, Dont panic, Simtools is more complete and it takes a little to adjust
