Please verify my T-rudder setup with GFmk3 was correct
Posted: Tue Nov 02, 2021 4:43
Good evening VKB,
I am glad to be back here. I have just added the T-rudder Mk.4 to my arsenal alongside my SCG Gunfighter mk3. Now, as much as I love your products, your software gives me Gordon Ramsey moments, but I have managed to work something out and I would be very grateful if you would verify and confirm what I have done.
Through troubleshooting the various manuals and instructions, I have discovered that the Configurator will not detect my T-rudder if it is connected through my Gunfighter's blackbox. I must connect the rudders to their own blackbox. I have done this and downloaded the latest firmware for both my SCG-R & Gunfighter Mk.3, as well as for my T-rudder Mk.4. I believe it is version 2.071.
I did not do the calibration through the configurator after this, but I can always do that later. If you tell me this is an important step, I will be sure to go back and do that soon. For now I actually cannot do that, because after updating the firmware on both devices I have now reconnected the rudder to the Gunfighter blackbox so that I can limit my use to only one blackbox. Is this ok? Did I do all the important things necessary for my new device and now I can enjoy both devices in one blackbox? I understand I'll need T-Link to use things like the electronic Toe-brake, and that means using two blackboxes so that T-Link can detect the rudder, but I don't wish to use that feature and would rather use only one blackbox.
At this point, I would like to know if I missed any important steps that would disturb the normal operation of my T-rudder by using it through one blackbox together with my Gunfighter. The only thing I can think of is the calibration of T-rudder through the Configurator, which I can only do if I connect the rudder through it's own blackbox. Please let me know how important that step is and if I should go back and complete it, as well as any other crucial processes I have missed.
However, If I did not miss anything crucial to the normal operation of my devices through one blackbox, then I will leave it alone as it currently is.
Thank you for your time and assistance!
