Example file missing

[idrislaode]

Hi. I cant find example joystickWithFFB file? its removed?

Hi, The example code was removed. You can refer to readme as a example code.

Same for me.

[YukMingLaw]

Hi,example code is added.https://github.com/YukMingLaw/ArduinoJoystickWithFFBLibrary/tree/master/examples/SingleJoystickFFB

Hi, how to interface the example code with a DIY Yoke/Joystick or stepper/DC-motors/BLDC`s with encoders ?

i hope its "easy" to do.

Can i use the "forces[0] is the X-Axis force data " "forces[1] is the Y-Axis force data" directly for the motor ? or do i need some "math" ?

thanks you very much for your great Library

Hi, The forces[0] is a data in range[-255,255].So if you use a DC-motor,just use it as a PWM value,Ofcourse use absolute value. here is a sample:

if(forces[0] > 0){
  digitalWrite(4,HIGH);
  digitalWrite(5,LOW);
  analogWrite(7,abs(forces[0]));
}else{
  digitalWrite(4,LOW);
  digitalWrite(5,HIGH);
  analogWrite(7,abs(forces[0]));
}

If you use a BLDC-Motor or a steper-Motor,you should write some code to drive it.And bind this value forces[0] as the motor strength. Hopes it can help you.

ok thank you very much :)

So I understand that the encoders are on the output side of the joystick and have nothing to do with the force feedback? only the position of the joystick? Right ? :D

Hello

I think that there are some mistakes in the example code, I'll take a look in 2-3hrs and make a pull request.

i also have problems compiling

SingleJoystickFFB:15:1: error: 'mygains' does not name a type mygains[0].springGain = 100;//0-100

how to set ffb for steering wheel?

[idrislaode]

i get error compiling

Hi,All. The new example code is available and successful in compiling.

Hi,All. The new example code is available and successful in compiling.

Hi, could you comment on the codes so everyone knows what's going on there?

    pinMode(A2,INPUT);
    pinMode(9,OUTPUT);
    pinMode(6,OUTPUT);
    pinMode(7,OUTPUT);

int value = analogRead(A2);

thank you very much for your fast correction of the example sketch
