I'm sure this question has been asked, in various forms, at one time or another but i couldn't find one to match my issue here.
I have an IPAC2 (USB), Windows 7, and a CRusin USA Single cab. I've been trying to wire it to the IPAC2, however i am having certain issues:
Steering wheel : Only goes in one direction and there is absolutely NO signal in the other with WINIPAC "test" mode. I've been gone to the sensor area to see if it throws any keyboard signal at all and nothing. The wheel is the original force-feedback 720 that came with the cab. No, i have not wired up the force-feedback yet.
Pedals: Intermittant up/down flutter. There seems to be no way to stabilize/calibrate these where they reach a "O" signal completely. There is one strange issue with these pedals, 4 wires. The general black (grnd), white/color wires (up/down), and the mystery red (don't know what purpose it serves).
I've seen these cabs on youtube working, some have wheels working some have used USB replacement wheels.
Basically, if there's a guide, could someone point me in that direction? I would be really greatful.
NOTE: I've seen the 270/360 guide and it's really got nothing to do with my question, my question is about connectivity and calibration.

IPACs are digital input which means off or on. You need analog like a UHID or an APAC

The NEW I-PAC (https://www.ultimarc.com/ipac1.html)s have additional Pin headers, though I don't know if the firmware supports anything beyound digital switches.
As Malenko said, you might need to use an A-PAC or U-HID instead.
Your Wheel and your Pedals are pots. Take a look at the A-PAC example, that should clarify any wiring questions you might have.
