RC 13 firmware for the SRT gearbox: the code of maturity
Added 2024-04-01 13:18:31 +0000 UTCMaturity! A big word indeed!
The V9.1 gearbox is getting old. The community has grown, and so have I. I've been able to observe which mods were used, which were usable, which were unusable.
When I recently reworked the code to make it lighter, I became aware of a few things:
1) Some mods are too complex to be used, like the pedal mod with ADS1105...
2) Some parts of the code are no longer of interest, like the SmartSequential mod I developed for PCars2.
3) The arduino we're using is too slow to handle many mods (especially pedals, where speed becomes important).
4) The arduino has too little memory to handle many mods.
5) The arduino is too inaccurate to use certain mods. For example, 10-bit precision on the pedals is just about right...
So here's the RC13, stripped of bits of code and useless features. Gone are the SmartSequential and the ADS1105 pedals. The code is lighter and faster. Gone too are the functions for increasing or decreasing volume, which are not compatible with the pedals (I hope to be able to correct this).
So I think this code meets users' needs much better, and sorts out what's useful and what's not. With hindsight, I realize that many features were too ambitious for this "small" processor.
As usual, the code is available on the download page:
