Hi, I have a working EGT guage for a Jaguar simulator I am currently building. The problem I have is that the readouts (in degrees celcius), dont line up to the needle due to non-linearity.
Check out the pic attached, is there anyway of setting these non-linear points in FS2phidget?
Thanks in advance

Chris,
Nope. no way at present.
Do you have a math function that states angular position with respect to temperature?
Regards,
Alan.

You can do that with Simkit gauges though. Their calibration allows it.

There is currently settings for flaps gauges.
Shouldn't be too difficult for me to modify fs2phidgets to make settings apply for any gauge.

That would be great Alan, very much appreciated. I would try to do it personnally, but I would class myself as extremely novice at programming.
