    HyperAxis interface, what is different from SCN?

    Is there any other function than reverse homing?

    At first I thought all the actuators had the ability to wait until the end of homing, but that does not seem to be the case.

    (Actually, I need to wait until all the actuators are homing, then centering them at the same time.)

    The HyperAxis is a 'set length' driver.
    It does not need to scan to see how long itself is, as it made for a given length.
    These things are beefed up SCN actuators but have a delicate bussing in one end. (As I understand it)
    This Interface driver is designed to protect that bushing.
    Take care,

    @yobuddy Ah ... too ... So the 150mm or other length did not move properly.

    Can not you add the ability to center all actuators simultaneously on the HyperAxis interface?

    The HyperAxis driver is setup to be hard coded for 100mm actuators.
    Sure we could set it up for more lengths.
    But the length is hard coded for this Interface, so i would need to know the set length (in steps) for any other length we want to add.

    The HyperAxis is compatible with the SCN Interface thou, so if you want it to auto-center, just use the scn interface for them.

    Take care,

    @yobuddy Sorry, not enough explanation.

    Well... not yet, I do not have the simultaneous centering function I want.

    For example, when you exit from different position... When homing again, centering is done separately timing.

    I do wanted...When homing, it is necessary to wait for the end of homing of all the actuators and to center it once.

    This feature will be very helpful in traditional 4Axis (DBox) or 6Axis (Stewart) Style.

    Think about it once ~

    But it centers after every game, and before every game.
    So they should all do the same thing at the same time.
    Unless you have a sim with different length actuators here and there?
