Custom Shifter or H Gearbox
USB adapter for gearbox, allows you to create your custom sequential or H-shaped gearbox.
An MLX90393 magnetic field sensor is managed by a Seeduino Xiao board. The firmware uses the principle of lever's XY position to determine the gear engaged. See the "Tutorials" tab on this page for the cablibration process.
A button can be used to engage reverse gear when the lever is in 6th gear.
Another button can be used to switch the box to sequential mode.
7 other buttons can be connected, and with the custom firmware option you can connect all the other peripherals proposed in Node Blue (you will have to specify the desired configuration when ordering).
Effective resolution: 16 bits on all axes, refreshed and filtered at 250 Hz.
Connector: USB-C
An internal calibration is necessary for each gear (See the "Tutorials" tab on this page).
This adapter does not require drivers and is natively supported by Windows 10/8/7, Vista 32, Vista 64, XP, 2000, Me, 98, Mac OS X and Linux.

Gearbox Calibration
It is necessary to have Node Blue installed to perform the calibration. To install Node Blue follow this tutorial.
Open a serial monitor on the com port of the board (icon # at the top in Node Blue), You can see the calibration messages in the serial monitor (window at the bottom in Node Blue).
Click on the "Cal" entry of the "LogitechShifter" module. The message "Calibration started" appears.
Put the shifter on neutral and click on "Cal" again.
Engage 1st gear and click on "Cal" again.
Engage 6th gear and click on "Cal" again.
When done, the message "Calibration finished" is displayed.
The settings are saved in the non-volatile memory of the board and are restored on each restart.
You can redo a calibration multiple times, by just repeating these operations.
You can also clear the calibration data, go to the "Settings" menu of Node Blue, check "Clear Storage" and upload your project twice in a row.
If necessary, the detection thresholds can be modified :
– double click on the "LogitechShiter" module and modify the parameters.
– "H Thres. L": decrease if the 1st gear is detected instead of the 3rd (or the 2nd instead of the 4th), increase if the 1st or the 2nd is not always detected.
– "H Thres. R": decrease if the 5th gear is detected instead of the 3rd (or the 6th instead of the 4th), increase if the 5th or the 6th is not always detected.
– V Thres. : increase if the neutral is not always detected.
– Seq. Thres. (G25 only): increase if the action is not always detected, decrease if it is too sensitive.
If you have arduino boards connected and detected by NodeBlue, unplug them, then plug in the adapter, select the com port that appeared at the top left of Node Blue window.
Click on "Upload", perform a new calibration, and repeat the process until all gears are detected correctly.
It is necessary to have Node Blue installed to perform the calibration. To install Node Blue follow this tutorial.
