Altering Axis Attributes

Axis Status Notifications

You'll need to be aware of several notifications in the axis highlighter box when manipulating
and applying axis data. On the left is a list of the current device's axes. The colors indicate
the status of each axis.

Setting a Deadzone

To set a deadzone on an axis, whether it's an S-Curve or a J-Curve, simply move the deadzone
slider (part 8). You will see the axis start to split from the middle in the manual adjust area.
The deadzone will become larger as the slider moves farther.

Setting a Response Curve

To set a response curve on an axis, whether it's an S-Curve or a J-Curve, simply move
the curvature slider. On an S-Curve setting you will see the curve turn snake-like, which indicates
curvature above and below the center point the axis.
On a J-Curve setting you will see the whole axis curve as the slider moves. You can also change
the curvature of either curve by moving the points in the manual adjustment area (part 4).
If you move the points in the area, 2 for an S-Curve and 1 for a J-Curve, then the curve will
adjust to the new points.
Setting an Axis Range
To set an axis range, simply move the Axis Range Adjustment Slider (part 5). This will shrink
the data for that axis from the full negative side and from the full positive side. Now when
you use the axis that you have just altered, the axis data output will only output up to the points
that you have set in the settings.
Light Blue in the larger box indicates the currently selected axis.
Green in the smaller box indicates that the data on the settings page
and the data on the device are in sync for this axis.
Yellow in the smaller box indicates that the data for this axis has been
modified on the settings page but has not yet been synced to the device.
To sync data, click 'Apply' in the bottom right. The entire box will turn
Yellow then start to fill up Green to indicate that the data on the settings
page is being synced to the device. Once data is fully synced, the larger
box will revert to Light Blue and the smaller box will stay Green.
When the Axis box turns Green, the data from the settings page
saves to the physical device. The main Axis box will then turn Blue and
the slash will turn to Green.
