Functions


The Phidgets Plugin gives you many cool features:

  • Support for orignal Phidgets Sensors. The plugin already contains the needed formulas to calculate the real data from the measurevalues of the inputs. You just set the type of the input from a list.
  • The Measure data can be displayed within the plugin as well as outside of the plugin (e.g. in range of the clock per "Injection")
  • Control of Digital Outputs (e.g. Control any electric in your car - Lights, Door-Locks, ...)
  • Display of Digital & Analog In- & Outputs
  • Add Events (e.g. Next Track, Mute, Shutdown, ...) that fire, if a predefined condition occurs - e.g. If a button on your Wheelremote is pressed, the Reargear is put in or a certain Temperature is reached
  • You can also "inject" images in the mainwindow of centrafuse. For example if the temperature is low you could display a ice-warning symbol
  • Autoconnect
  • Reset Outputs on Close possible
  • Data is available on the CF_pluginData Interface
