Install
Download .dll
Get the latest release from GitHub repository page. You'll only need the
DahlDesign.dllfile.The file goes into your SimHub main folder. Typically C:\Program Files(x86)\SimHub
Restart SimHub and you'll get a prompt that a new plugin has been found.
Plugin in SimHub
You'll find the plugin here. You can also check the box to have a shortcut to the plugin menu on the left hand side. The menu has a lot of useful content, so I would strongly recommend it.
Additional setup
Wheel slip
A special feature that requires a little extra setup is the wheel slip properties. These properties use the ShakeITMotorsV3Plugin to get slip values, then filters these values a bit.
You'll have to activate the slip effects in the ShakeIT Motors plugin page and export the values as a properties named "WheelSlip". Case sensitive. If you dont need the effect for you Arduino, just set volume to 0.
Plugin setup
Navigate to the Plugin setup page in the plugin menu. Bind you shifter paddles/sequential shifter. A few calculations in the plugin needs to know if you've done a gearshift, and by the time the iRacing telemetry has updated your current gear, the relevant information is already lost. So keeping track of the actual shifter button press is necessary.
Steering angle
Navigate to the Controllers page in the plugin menu. Under Wheel base you'll be able to type in the wheel base steering axis. Make sure the controllers input plugin is active (Settings->Plugins->Controllers input) and search for your wheel base in the Available properties tab. Type in the name of the steering axis as the example explains. This is used to make a property [DahlDesign.SteeringAngle] which can be used in the dashboard editor, and is also used for some cars in Dahl Design iRacing dashboard. .
