I don't think I like you anymore Randy.  :hissy: :hissy:

Why don't I just send you my CC in the mail. Or maybe I should just have my pay check deposited into your bank account.

Just to clarify in my mind.

I understand it's possible to disable the rotary through software, I assume the reverse it true, enable the rotary joystick the same way. But is this done after intialization of the controller? Can we "force" the controller to enable and check for rotary joysticks?

Let's say we have the following scenario.

We have a modular control panel and one of these modules is a rotary.

Assume an FE that can toggle the rotary state via software. We power the system with a pair of 8-ways in place, GP-WizRX checks for and doesn't find rotaries, so it reverts to the non-rotary default. At some point, I decide I want to play a rotary game, so I swap out the 8-ways for rotaries.  Since I didn't power down or reset the system, does manually enabling the rotary force the GP-WizRX to initialize itself for rotaries? Or does the controller have to be powered down/reset?

You have full control via the software.  Even if the rotaries are not recognized at boot, simply selecting anything but "disabled" from within the software and clicking the "GO" button will enable the rotary function.

And then it could also be done via your front end using the DRS technology.  Right Randy?
