Just a silly question. What is the real difference in feeling between unlimited and 1000hz tbw?
I know i know the official answer that higher hz is sharper lower can be smoother but we can have some lag or loose some kind of details but anyway is there anything which i feel e.g. in iracing or assetto between the two modes?
unlimited is smoother feedback for me its a clearly noticeable difference between the two in iracing.
i would say the higher the smoother 1000hz still feels sharp. i would advise everyone to try and run unlimited.
(you must try it with 10630 or 10690 beta ioni firmware dough)
It is a low-pass filter, which by definition smooths out the signal, allowing lower frequency signals to pass the filter. Unlimited disables the filter. The latency of this filter is negligible for simulator use case.
The other thing i do not understand is in simucube. The center frequency, attenuation and q facotr. I read the description but the question here is the same what should i feel if i set it correctly and what should i feel if it is totally wrong. I tried different settings but iam clueless.
Motor was just in the default angle after phasing. It’s true that static noise does vary little bit depending on angle.
PS. glad to hear that the new FW works for you 
I’m looking forward to perfect it for all motor types out there.
Noise levels for 1.6.90 1.6.30 and 1.6.01
So its definitely a positive improvement in the right directions 
I’ve been driving the Porsche around road Atlanta for a couple of hours with 1.6.90, previously on 1.6.30 - I have not encountered any problems and to be honest I can’t tell the difference between the versions. My small mige and 10k encoder feel great - a big thanks to Mika, Tero and the team of testers for making my osw better and better.
Here is my Comparison on my small mige 10.000ppr
(11 O Clock is the noisiest point in my wheel)

It might be interesting to have some sort of ffb test in granity with the wheel moving left and right or something. so we can see what it does during actual movements / ffb signals
@Tero : Like @Mika said, with my Hirden 2500CPR sound in my steering wheel with the last IONI firmware 1.6.9 and the IONI damper. More damper, more lound sound… Change torque bandwitch number doesn’t change anything.
With 1.6.3, no problem. Perfect Damping.
I never use any damping, but i tested it now and i too have to report that it sounds like searching for a radio channel.
When you turn the wheel now and when you put damper even higher it sounds like a old arcade game. didn’t have that problem in 10630 either.
my gopro mic doesnt pic it up that well but its pretty loud.
ioni 10690 beta firmware damper sound
Friction and inertia damping seem oke.
I get a squeaky noise with dampening but only above 1.0. Friction doesn’t produce any sound
Mige Sincos 2M encoder
Thanks guys for reporting these damping issues. I’m sure we will get on top of it!
I confirm the ML MR measurement is working again with 1.6.90, no need to manually set lower values anymore. only the damping filter is making noise at the moment. Lenze motor.
Are you using the damping filter with Lenze? wat do you feel is you use it. I tried it but nothing really changed in the feeling
it does dampen the wheel, makes it feel heavier. its very noticable. You can try it directly in the simucube config tool. but with 1.6.3 and 1.6.9 I don’t use any filters because of the noise issues. with 1.6.1 I used these filters a lot because I am looking for a rubbery feel in the wheel like racetyres would feel.
Yes, latency of low pass filters are not very much. Here are some examples for added latencies for different settings (measured from a point where filter output signal has been reached to 90% of input):
100Hz 4.5 ms
330Hz 1.2 ms
1000Hz 0.35 ms
2200Hz 0.15 ms
Issue in the damping filter has been found, corrected, and will be in the next IONI Firmware Beta version.
