Keyboard Mapping

The Keyboard Mapping is where you specify what Blync action corresponds to what key that will be sent to the Game app. The available mappings are;

  1. Left Turn: The specified key will be sent when you turn your handlebar left. There are values for when the bike is in motion or stopped
  2. Left Wide Turn: The specified key will be sent when you turn your handlebar far left. If the specified key is a number, the number will override the Turn Sensitivity value and the Left Turn key will be sent to the game app with this new sensitivity. The override only applies when the bike is in motion. If the bike is Stopped, it sends the specified key provided in the Left Wide Turn stopped mapping.
  3. Right Turn: The specified key will be sent when you turn your handlebar right. There are values for when the bike is in motion or stopped
  4. Right Wide Turn: The specified key will be sent when you turn your handlebar far right. If the specified key is a number, the number will override the Turn Sensitivity value and the Right Turn key will be sent to the game app with this new sensitivity. The override only applies when the bike is in motion. If the bike is stopped, it sends the specified key provided in the Right Wide Turn Stopped mapping.
  5. Turn Sensitity: The value specified is used as the number of seconds that will elapse before sending the next turn value. If set to 0 then the turn values are sent continously. Use this to control the delay of sending turn values to avoid overshoot of your turning in the game.
  6. Slow Speed: The specified key will be sent when biking in slow speed
  7. Medium Speed: The specified key will be sent when biking in medium speed
  8. High Speed: The specified key will be sent when biking in high speed
  9. Stop: The specified key will be sent when the bike is stopped
  10. Stop Count: The specified number will be used to calculate the number of times to send the stop key
