This page describes how to talk to a GIMX instance that is listening for UDP packets on a specific port.
See the "--src IP:port" argument on the Command line page to learn how to start such a GIMX instance.
Contents
Protocol starting from version 7.1
One problem with the earlier protocol was that backward compatibility was broken each time a new axis was added to the controller map.
The new protocol allows to send any number of axis values.
Get controller type
Use this request for getting the controller type of the remote GIMX instance.

Send report
Use this request to update the axes of the remote GIMX instance.
The Controller Maps page describes the axes and the value ranges corresponding to each controller type.

Protocol for versions up to 6.11
Get controller type
It's possible to send a packet to get the controller type from the remote GIMX.

All axes are signed integers.
The Controller Maps page describes the axes and the value ranges corresponding to each controller type.
byte | value |
0 | 0xff |
1 | 0x9C = 156 |
2-5 | axis 0 |
6-9 | axis 1 |
... | |
158-161 | axis 39 (changed in GIMX 6.10) |
