tronicgr, is it possible to increase the sensor feedback limit more than 50%. I really like this function because it prevents mechanical damage of the rig. But i still find that when testing, the brim of my heim joint still touching the spacers especially full braking position/forward pitch. I am sure during simulation/in game that that wont happen al lot but i like to be on the safe side. My heim joint can only go about 38 degree.

Hmm you have it set to 50% and the actuators are still moving?
I thought that 50% translates to 100% block of motion! ( as the range is shared in two directions...).
Let me check it on my model here.
Thanks Thanos

i did set it to 50% and it move only in 90 degress instead of 180 degress when testing with fabi or amc onboard buttons. So maybe u can increase the maximum value. My lever is 20cm, i might trim it down to 15cm but using the sensor feedback limit is a temporary solution for my problem. I know it would reduce the accuracy because i use less than 50% of the potentiometer range.

There is a hardware solution for you also, perhaps you can reduce the range further using the AREF trim pot on the amc1280usb. Its located on the side where is the USB connector.
It will scale down the reference point for the analog voltage for the ADC, resulting on less travel, without losing resolution. Give it a try.
Thanks Thanos

Thanks Thanos Did you check on your model. Does your statement above is correct? Just wanna know if my amc1280 has firmware bug or something that the feedback sensor limit not working as it should. I will try the ARES trimpot once i have the time, how does it work, turning clockwise will reduce the range thus increase the resolution or vice versa?

With the hardware solution I gave you above with the trim pot, it will physically decrease the range of your pot, while keeping the same resolution. Haven't had the chance to test on my model yet, being busy with other hardware right now. Thanks Thanos

Can you please tell me here what type of sensor you are using and what are its specifications? Also what are the specifications of the hardware that you are using here? What is your MCU and what are the other hardware components for the control? www.7pcb.com

Hi Thanos My Amc dont have the trimpot... Where is it? Regards yeah it is suppose to be there at the top right corner. Yours is older revision board perhaps?
