problem with the scn5 configuration

hi, I have a problem with the x-sim setting of the converter, and specifically the setting of the actuators in this program. They are detected, calibrated when switched on, but I can not enter the "open setting" door in which I would like to bury. A screenshot below

Bought in korea MADE IN JAPAN

First I made, the connections as they are in the diagram, with the resistance and the diode

and then

I connected the gray wire (pin 8), to 2V without resistance, and ...

3D Printed Linear Actuator Design

Hi Everyone

I'm brand new to the board and to flight sims in general although I am a qualified private pilot with around 500 hours logged.

As well as flying my other interests include all things technical and I have designed and built a few different 3D printers (and two full size aeroplanes :D )

I have seen a couple of DIY linear actuator designs on ...

Different actuators

Hello all,
I am new to the forum and cant post pics yet, so here is my question. I am going to try and use a iai robo cylinder actuator inplace of a scn6 act. They basicly are the same setup.ie.. 24 volt, rs485 input and have a seperate controller for the act. The feedback looks tooks tooks the same also. Where i am running into issues is the robo cyl has a different emg ...

SCN5 power up, but not doing anything!!!

Hi

I'm building motion simulators using SCN5/6 actuators, never had a problem, but now a SCN5 stop from working!...it turns on, but does nothing in terms of movement of the rod...i saw that a common problem was a broken pin, so i opened the actuator, but soon found out that in terms of structure everything was OK...so i've changed the PCB's (electronic controller) from one good SCN5 to the other, ans it started to work ...

SCN6 has disapeared!

Hi!

I've bought a SCN6-050-200 and received it last week. (50KgF, 200mm stroke)
I first used it with the Dyadic softs to tame it.

Yesterday, I tried to configure it with X-Sim Extractor and Converter
The cylinder was well recognized by the Converter as an output interface, or more or less.
In fact it was recongnized as an SCN5-010-300 (Wrong Stroke).

I did some tutorials to configure it on the interface settings and to learn ...

My actuator suddenly gone and can't connect now My actuator suddenly gone and can't connect now

Dear experts at X Sim

I encounter again a problem. Normally 2 to 3 months this software pop msg and said it can't works or something like that
So as usual I had printed out a handout and do the same set up as beginning.
This time when I do the same thing, in the interface setting is all gone. I mean those field of actuator and stuffs.
I've been use this program more then ...

SN5 actuators not detected by FREX interface

Hey guys, not sure about the correct subcategory for this post as it could be a hardware/software issue - so my apologies in advance.
I've recently purchased some scn5 actuators and the 2 port FREX interface for them which was available on the website. To my understanding the interface is just an FTDI USB-COM485-PLUS2 board with custom com-port/serial to the 4pin connector on the actuator cables. The drivers automatically installed and when connected, there are ...

D-Box actuators support

Hello guys, not sure if this is the right section but I just discovered X-Sim and was wondering if this software can be used to control 4 D-Box actuators.
I am aware there are game profiles ready to download, but what I need is direct control of the system for a personal project instead.
From what I know the cheapest solution with proprietary software by D-Box is around $1500, so of course X-Sim would be ...
