System Settings
Setup Menu
The Setup Menu allows users to configure critical safety settings, actuator checks, encoder parameters, and other essential system behaviors.
Online-Bt
The online switch can be configured either as a switch or a push button to actively control the system connection.
Emergency Settings
Emergency State
Defines how the motors react when the emergency stop is activated. Carefully adjust this setting, as your safety depends on it:
Power off
The servos are turned off, and the rig will fall to the lowest position.
Homing is performed when power is restored.
Hold Power (default, check before use !!)
The servos remain powered but stationary, keeping the platform in its current position.
Homing is performed when power is restored.
Keep Online
The servos remain powered and hold position, no homing is required when reactivating.
The system resumes the previous movement and transitions smoothly back to active motion.
⚠ Warning: If an error occurs, homing data may be lost, potentially causing the actuators to move to their mechanical limits, leading to damage.
Emergency NC (Normally Closed)
Selects whether the emergency stop switch operates in normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) mode.
Actuator Configuration
Actuator Check
Verifies the status of all connected actuators when the servomotors are online.
If an issue is detected, the controller stops sending signals to prevent further movement.
🔹 Important:
All motor connections must be sequentially occupied (e.g., ports 1-4 must be used without skipping numbers).
If, for example, ports 1-3 and 5 are occupied (skipping 4), an error will occur when "Actuator Check" is enabled.
Once the issue is resolved, the actuators will automatically recover and Startmenu is activated
Encoder Direction
Some encoders (e.g., handheld encoders) may send inverted signals.
This option reverses the direction of encoder signals if necessary.
Pin Configuration (Extra01)
Configures the function of the Extra01 Pin, with the following options:
Nothing – No function assigned.
Servo Brake NC – Engages the servo brake in a normally closed state.
Servo Brake NO – Engages the servo brake in a normally open state.
Send Clock – Outputs a pulse every 1ms.
Brake Delay
Sets the delay time (in ms) for activating the brake relay.
Default: 50ms.
Servo Enable
Changes the pin state from HIGH to LOW for the servo enable signal.
Gain and Positioning
Mastergain Max
Defines the maximum value for Mastergain.
Do no use more then 100% in Position mode it can damage your Rig !!
Mastergain Enable
ON: Allows adjustments to the Mastergain value.
OFF: Prevents changes to Mastergain.
Online Position
Sets the standby position in percentage (%).
When switching online, the system first moves to this standby position before transitioning into motion.
Recommended setting: 50% (midpoint of actuator travel) for smoother transitions.
Setting this to 0% will cause the rig to enter motion immediately after activation.
Transition Speed
Controls the speed of the transition from standby to active motion ("morphing into motion").
Runtime Settings
Online Time
Operational runtime counter.
Can be reset by holding the USR button for >12 seconds.
Online Counter
ON: The runtime counter is active.
OFF: Disables the counter. ⚠ Note: Frequent use may cause display issues as the counter is stored in Flash memory, potentially leading to memory degradation over time.
Timeout
Automatically powers off servomotors after inactivity.
Options: OFF, 10 minutes – 120 minutes.
SRS Support Mode
SRS Supp.
Enables native USB "Flashport" emulation as an FTDI USB chip.
Allows automatic connection with SRS (Sim Racing Studio).
⚠ Warning:
In this mode, the resolution is significantly reduced.
The FTDI driver will not work with this emulation.
A manual driver installation is required in Windows.
Steps to Install the Correct Driver for SRS Mode
Enable "SRS Supp." in the Setup Menu.
Save the settings and restart the controller.
After restarting, Windows will detect a faulty "USB Serial Converter."
Manually install a new driver in Device Manager:
Once installed, this mode will work with SRS, FlyPT Mover, and the dashboard.
Multi
See "Multi" configuration section above.
This structured version is clear, professional, and well-optimized for GitBook. Let me know if you need any modifications! 🚀
