I've put a C# example on our ftp site:

Hi Jesperk, You need to put a try {} catch around the new TDx.TDxInput.Device() call. You will get a COMException if the driver is not installed. Don't make any other calls in this case. If the driver is installed but not running, you can make the calls on the TDx object. You just won't get any even...

Again, just to be clear, you just want to assign application-specific commands to the buttons on the device, not to movements of the 6DOF controller cap. I think you can already do this (see this thread).

Just to be clear: It isn't the installation procedure, the look and feel, the font, the colors, etc. that you like about SetPoint. What you like is the fact that it allows your Logitech mouse to work with every program that you run, by generating keystrokes that you can tune to your liking for each ...

You might get some help by posting to the RBC9 forum topic.
Some of those folks have had to uninstall it.

Hi uGLay,

What is it about SetPoint that you like? Please be very specific.

When you save something in the GUI, it is saved in %appdata%\3dconnexion\3dxware\profiles.

You can start with that .scg file, but you will need to change the EXECUTABLES entry to point to your executable.

Hi Nick, I have bad news for you. Those files are nearly useless for you if you are using C#. Your best bet is to use the COM interface. We have not exposed a way for you to directly modify the LCD via that interface. Do you really not have any idea what should be displayed on the LCD ahead of time?...

Hi Nick, The device itself will not generate anything larger than -512/+511, but there could very easily be other software in place below you that will change those max/min values. You need to clip the values if you need them clipped. You should look at the HID descriptor of the device to see the ra...

The driver doesn't use DirectInput. I suspect the problem is in DirectInput.

Hi Nick, What language are you using? This older SDK is for C/C++ development. It certainly can be called from other languages, but that would be quite a pain. All I want to be able to do is call the SiSyncSetButtonName function and just change the name whenever I want. This function has it listed t...

Hi Vijay, Yes, I also see what you are reporting. It seems to have a heart beat that causes it to misrepresent the values on a regular basis. It may have something to do with the time between polls. I'd have to look into it further to see if it is a problem in that demo or in DirectInput. I'd sugges...

Hi Nick, It's no bother. It's only a bother when you point out a problem we don't have a fix for <GGG> You need to use the SiSync functions to send data to the LCD. There is a GUISync_SDK demo that shows how to do this. There is extensive documentation on it that you will have to read (GUI Synchroni...

Hello vijay555, Do you have an example to show this to us? Do you get the same jittering when you are not at the extremes? If you are polling with DirectInput, make sure you don't poll faster than 60 Hz (30 Hz to be safe). If you poll faster than the device can send data (62.5Hz) you will get errone...
