Guys, I'm looking for a software that will map inputs from a USB input and show them on a graph. I need it to analyze my driving with my sim. The sim does show lateral G's and longitudinal G's but I want to see my inputs on the controller. I've tried googling with various search parameters but I haven't found anything that fits the bill. If you know of some software that can do this, please let me know.

"Input From USB" is very vague description. USB is just a Tx/Rx protocol , and you need to have a 'Host Device/Driver' on the other end to capture the Data.

1. Get a board which would digitize Analog input (Voltage) into USB protocol
http://tenettech.com/product.php?id_product=632

2. Get software like Logview which can put the raw data into Graphs...

People would still need more info to help you out.

If you mean Showing the Raw data from your Tx/Gamepad, conencted to PC as 'USB Game Pad, you need to look at :

http://reference.wolfram.com/mathematica/tutorial/IntroductionToManipulate.html (scroll down to 'Gamepads and Joysticks')

Hope it helps...

Well, the data from a 3.5 mm jack from my Tx goes to the PC. I need a way of representing that data( the steering and throttle input) on a graph. So I guess I can call it raw data...

As of now, it looks like I don't have enough time to make it work... Sad

Well, I've got one more question. I have a cable that goes from the Tx's output to the USB port. Can I use that input and map it or do I have to use a splitter? I can't find the one I had... Sad

I haven't read through the whole link but will it convert the Tx's input into percentages and give it to me or do I have to take the PPM signal and convert it myself? That would be tricky, wouldn't it?
