EDIT Shaker Motor Buzz then Shakes? Normal

[bluejy2]

Got the wiring all figured out but in the 24 Game (example) the Shaker motor on DOF trigger will buzz quickly then shake.   Otherwise, working as expected.   Normal?

Underpowered (voltage too low) or PWM Minimum value in DOFconfigtool settings is set too low.

The buzzing is the motor trying to turn but not having enough power or time to get spinning.

I know so little about everything that I could tell you all there is to know about nothing

It could depend too on if he’s actually using a PWM controller for his shaker…or if he’s using a relay to turn it on / off.  If he’s using a relay to turn it on / off with nor PWM intensity change then like you said, he needs to have BOTH his min and max Intensity level be set to the max. (it could be the relay buzzing at first until the PWM level in the game reaches the max)
