That would be great, thanks. Yes the app is written in C#, or at least my interpretation of C# ;-)

I fear it may lead me to buying a device or two to test with as I don't have any of the devices currently.

Thanks, Mike...

General Discussions / Writing an app to directly control the hardware

I've had a quick search through the forums and can't find an answer to this, and I'm not entirely sure it's supported, but hey:

I've been developing a dash app that runs on Windows and currently hooks into the pCars API. I'm looking to introduce support for external hardware. I've started looking at the Logitech LCD devices and I already have some code for the Arduino.

The SymHardware however seems to be the route a lot of the sim racers go, so I'd like to implement support for this. So the questions:
A) Can I do this? I know the SimDash software does this already and I understand if this request is stamping on those toes.
B) If this is possible is there are documentation, APIs, etc that I can get my hands on? I've done a fair bit of googling around and come up empty. The dash app I'm creating is a WPF C# app.

Thanks, Mike...
