The current drivers do not support serial devices. The last driver that works with serial devices can be downloaded from the web site. In that driver, you can switch the directions on the axes only by editing the config file for your application. If you find the AXIS_MAP_HRZ_USER entry in the config...

This post shows how to do that.

Hello,

Hi Wade,

I have no idea. RawInput is Microsoft's API. Perhaps they have problems on XP64 and/or VS2008. I didn't see anything on the web though. We'd have to check it out next week.

The non-COM interface will continue to be supported.

If you have a COM-able app though, we should help you with MFC. I'll see what I can do to help you with that.

The "old" SDK has win32 and MFC examples. You can get it from the Support->Driver Download page->SpaceTraveler->Archive->3DxWare SDK.

These examples do not use COM, but they are still valid.

Our apologies Magnus. That feature didn't get implemented. It should have been removed from si.h until it is. It is still on the list for a future major upgrade (no date is available for it).

I've seen this before. I can't recall exactly what it is. It is something simple though like 2 drivers running at once. While I am racking my brain, do the following: Uninstall 3DxSoftware. Delete siappdll.dll and spwini.dll from your System32 directory. Delete the contents of HKCU/software/3dconnex...

This is news to me. What application are you using?

Here's another post that gives a link to the SL RC.

Yes.

You need to use the 1.20 SL release candidate (or something even newer). Don't use the RCB9 driver. Just use the standard 3Dconnexion drivers.

HIDTest is just about as simple as it gets. There is very little going on there. I'm suggesting that you put that code into a separate thread so it doesn't block your main thread.

The way you've changed the code, you should return immediately but you won't have any data most of the time. All I wanted was to get the translation and rotation vectors, even if the device is not activated You can't get the data if there isn't anything there to be got. If you want to get new data a...

Read the documentation on WaitForMultipleObjects. If you wait, you will get woken whenever some data is available on the device. If you don't wait you will get woken when the timeout is exceeded, if nothing happens on the handles you are waiting on.
