KADE miniArcade 2.0 beta release
PL1:
Sorry, but none of the KADE series firmwares/GUIs can do that kind of translation from quadrature waveforms to keystrokes.
- I don't recall ever hearing about an encoder or converter program that will do that. :dunno
Your best bet is to use the Arduino Integrated Development Environment (IDE) program to write and upload a sketch that does what you want to do.
Since you will probably be updating that sketch many times during testing, be sure to choose a board that is easy to reprogram.
- Pro Micros are inexpensive, but can sometimes be a pain to reprogram.
Good luck. :cheers:

awww bum... i thought it may be like this,
I guess people use an encoder to joystick press thing that there are loads of, i.e. freejoy etc, then use something like joy to key to translate it to keyboard presses.
which i would do, only i'm trying to use it on a PS5, which accepts a HID keyboard or the official controller, and the simulator only accepts key presses to move the levers... even the controller is just moving the lever for as long as you hold the button down for... same as holding a keyboard key down etc.
So i need to do it all in hardware.
Got a little stack of arduinos in my box of bits, so it looks like i will be trying to program them again, i do remember the leonardo was a bit of a pain to quickly reprogram too... but i think i will need one of them, or an arduino due... to have the HID output thing that will be seen as a normal keyboard by the PS5.
and as each vehicle in the sim has a different reaction time to the keyboard presses... i will need to switch profiles on the go, oh boy, this is gonna be fun :)

For "on the go" profile switching without reprogramming, you could use something like an X-position rotary switch leading to X inputs to select one of X vehicles or button press durations.
- In the program loop read the rotary switch inputs and set the button press duration variable accordingly.

Does anyone have the kade miniarcade files? I want to do the project
