Why does pressing the trigger change my axes measures?
The F18CGRH has a feature named
“Precision mode”, this feature has a button
associated and a value in the F18CGRH tab of RS_HID_DEV_TOOL application. If
you enable this feature by setting the button to ON, when you press the trigger button
the axes measures will be reduced to the percent selected in the value text box.
For example, if you set the button to ON, the value is 40% and the axis X has a value
of 10000, when you press the trigger, the value will change to 4000, when you release
the trigger the value will change back to 10000.
If the button is set to OFF, no change will be produced in the measures.
What firmware should I install in my R3 to work with the
F18CGRH?
All firmware developed for the FSSB-R3 are valid to use with the F18CGRH, but they
use it as a standard grip without additional buttons and functions. So RealSimulator
has developed a special version for the FSSB R3 to improve the functionality when
both work together. The name of this version is:
-
“
MJF_FW_F16-18_4_00_x.FSSB_R3
”
only for the FSSB-R3 Lighting
This version increases the number of slots from 4 to 8 like in the F18CGRH and
disables the SMM because the change between slots is made with the rotary switch of
F18CGRH.
So, we can enjoy the best performances of both devices, the high precision of FSSB-
R3 and the versatility of F18CGRH with a very simple management in changing
profiles.
Remember: if you install this firmware with the SMM non-existent, there is a new
