SEM Configuration
Posted: Wed Nov 10, 2021 8:41
Hello
I recently got a SEM Module and I have been having a lot of trouble setting it up. I am going to be as detailed as I can with my issue below.
Set up:
NXT Premium Right Joystick
NXT Standard Left Joystick
SEM Module Desktop, Default Edition
VKB Software Version v0.92.11
I have flashed the firmware to v2.08.0.3
Functionality I am trying to achieve:
I am trying to get the Flaps Throttle on the SEM to act as an axis, I am trying to do this with the 2 stage detent in place as I like the throw resistance the detent offers because I think the throttle is too loose without a detent in place.
I have held the 3 buttons down, pressed A1 to select the flaps throttle and then selected the START button to set it in axis mode.
2 days ago I was able to figure out how to connect the SEM module to the Left side of the Left hand Standard NXT Stick. Yesterday I was able to get the SEM mostly functioning with the and older version of the Firmware. It did not have the function I want and I continuously watched all the new videos and could not figure out how to set up the throttle to the way I want it. Today I upgraded the firmware for all devices. With the new upgraded firmware i "Think" I might have the functionality I am trying to achieve but there are some issues.
The issues as of today:
1. There is a massive delay in the SEM module both in a game (Star Citizen) and in the testing section of the VKB software. None of the buttons are responsive in the software and when I throw the throttles it takes several seconds for it to register.
2. My right hand Premium NXT Stick seems to no longer function when everything is plugged in. There are no module plugged into this stick.
3. B3 light on SEM is randomly on or off at times (not sure if this means anything)
4. The blue light on the Standard Left NXT base flashes as well as the red one next to it (again not sure if this means anything)
