โจ ffcfstress โ the manual, bestie edition โจ
okay so welcome to ffcfstress(1), a General Commands Manual page, and honestly? she's a baddie with a warning label. ๐
๐ธ NAME ๐ธ
ffcfstress โ constant force stress test for force-feedback devices ๐ฎโจ
๐ฆ SYNOPSIS ๐ฆ
ffcfstress [-d <device>] [-u <update rate>] [-f <frequency>] [-a
<amplitude>] [-s <strength>] [-x <axis>] [-A] [-o]
๐ DESCRIPTION ๐
So ffcfstress stress tests constant non-enveloped forces on a force feedback device. It simulates a moving spring force by applying a frequently updated constant force effect. It's giving physics homework but make it haptic. ๐
โ ๏ธ Beware, the stress test may damage your device! No cap, fr fr. This is not a drill, bestie. ๐ญ
โจ OPTIONS โจ
At least one option is required. (yes, even just one. she needs something to work with. ๐)
-d<device>โ the device to test. By default it's/dev/input/event0. ๐-u<update rate>โ the update rate, in Hz. Default is25. โก-f<frequency>โ the spring center motion frequency, in Hz. Default is0.1. ๐-a<amplitude>โ the spring center motion amplitude, and it lives between0.0and1.0. Default is1.0. ๐-s<strength>โ the spring strength factor. Default is1.0. ๐ช-x<axis>โ absolute axis to test (default:0). The menu is:0= X1= Y2= Z3= RX4= RY5= RZ6= WHEEL
pick your fighter. ๐
-Aโ switch off auto-centering. bye bestie, no recentering for you. ๐ซถ-oโ dummy option, useful when all defaults should be used. she does nothing and she's iconic for it. ๐
