Virtual plunger moving exponentially

[Totaltimo]

Hello everyone!

 

I’m having a problem with my analog plunger ever since I had to replace my controller board due to a defect (upgrading from an early PinControl 1 to the current PinControl 1 version 5.0).

 

The movement of the virtual plunger is no longer linear—a 1:1 match with the physical plunger—but rather exponential across its range of motion. This means that for the first 1–2 cm, the virtual plunger moves more slowly than the physical one; it then moves linearly for a short stretch, and subsequently moves faster than the physical one. The interesting thing is that this effect occurs exclusively within VPX. When I check the axis movement in the joystick calibration settings, everything appears perfectly linear. I’ve already experimented with various plunger settings in VPX but haven't been able to find anything that resolves this issue.

 

So, the controller itself is functioning correctly; however, something—presumably related to the controller swap—is causing this specific behavior within VPX.

 

I'm a bit lost. Does anyone have any ideas?
