Linear input from SpaceNavigator

Post by keithnagle »

Is there a speed setting that gives a linear or unscaled input response in the latest Mac OS X driver or is there always a curve involved? I'm reading in the SDK that the axis values reported are scaled by the driver according to the speed slider settings on the 3Dconnexion preference panel. The SDK also says that the range at maximum speed is -1024 to 1024. However, at maximum speed the values I am getting are + or - 2600 on average and can get as high as + or - 3450. For my application I would like to get unscaled input in a similar format to the OS X HID Manager.
Any info on how the driver scales input data would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Keith.
