GNX SEM Gear/Flaps axes issue

Postby Dazza » Tue Dec 17, 2024 17:00

WWII Throttle combo THQ + SEM plus 2nd THQ

Issue : With all 3 units connected I can't get the SEM Gear & Flaps to switch to axes.

I'm using the HID Controller:

The SEM alone - both axes switch.
The SEM and THQ with WWII grip - both axes switch.

With all 3 units connected they function perfectly, except the SEM axes won't respond to calibration.

I've followed the video step by step in every attempt many, many times over the weekend and can't figure it out.

Any thoughts much appreciated.

Well it's Sod's Law now I finally asked for help, but somehow I've figured it out after 3 days of trials.
I've repeatedly taken everything apart and reconfigured. Tested each unit singly and connected to another. at the lowest point ran ZBootloader and made it all unresponsive. I learned how to short the internal pins and found another upload from a related post. I'd rather not do that again !

Anyway I'm not sure how, but following related tips and general poking around in the dark I got all axes to show up and respond. It's all so vague I'm not sure I learned anything and am in no hurry to repeat the process.

Besides all that run around this is a nice bit of kit that suits me as I've no aviation interests outside vintage aircraft.

All the best
Daz

I believe I have the same issue with a THQ+THQ+SEM setup. I wish you could explain how you resolved the issue, but I know what you mean about arriving at the destination without a step-by-step map of how you got there. Previously, I had THQ+SEM with flaps axis on the SEM. Now I have the six axes for THQ+THQ, but unable to get the flaps axis back on the SEM although everything else works fine. I have watched every tutorial I can find and reset the devices and run the config software many times without luck. Any hints you may have would be welcome!
