Pedal output

Hi,

I'm curious as to how the brake pedal communicates with the DD2 wheel base. I assume it's through voltage variations, but that is a guess. The most difficult part of driving a sim for me is to accurately determine how much brake force I'm using, and I'm looking for a way to use the pedal output to run some kind of sound oscillator that would produce a tone which increases in frequency as pedal pressure increases. Visual outputs don't cut it, as it disrupts my concentration trying to read it and see the road at the same time. I'd appreciate any ideas anyone has on this.

Thanks

    You can u use some haptic pedals reactor, it is very helpful and it will help you to!

    you can be more precise with it for example if you set it on “wheel lock” the haptic motors gonna vibrate when you Tyre’s are locking up. I hade the same issue when I started with sim racing that I didn’t know how much brake force that I applied but with that haptic motors it feels like a cheat but it isn’t 😁

    Thanks for answering, but your answer doesn't address my question. Locking up is not a problem, and I'm not looking for a vibrating gizmo. I'm looking for a way to take the voltage output from the brake load cell and sending it to a tone oscillator to produce a tone that changes in pitch as brake force is increased. My problem is that I don't know which wire sends the load cell output signal.
