SimDisplay uses SLIMax and SimDisplay does NOT offer technical support for the Software. So The EkSimRacing Support page is where you should be asking.

Yes They are VERY receptive over there, Check the first few New posts in the Help section and you'll see.

for the encoder configuration software is sim display that must provide it, I told them that I paid for a complete product for an incomplete product must give me back my money, they said that in two days the software will be available on their website

What "software" do you speak of ?

of this http://www.simdisplay.net/

Interesting, I wasn't aware that SLImax wasn't able to control the Encoder's through the display itself. That's why i questioned your reply the way I did, Thanks for the heads up tho. Im not exactly at the plug it in and wire it up stage just yet, 2016 wheels are a complicated beast when doing a replica.

Finally with the simdisplay software we were able to set the whole thing behind the wheel.
Missing very little, I keep you updated

Yes, you missed they need this software to properly configure encoder, switches etc.:
On Simdisplay site, download section here (first link): http://www.simdisplay.net/download

SIMR-LCD Manager 1.0
Inputs configuration (encoders, switches)

This is a different thing from SliMax Manager that is the software allowing, trough the proper plugin, communication between your sim and your display. In this case SLiMAxManager manage directly leds, switch etc, but also VdashEmu SW on the display.

So yes, 2 different pieces of software, one (SIMR-LCD Manager) to configure once the HW according your needs and provided from HW manufacturer, and one to use your SimRaceLCD every day with your sim (SliMAxManager with VdashEmu displayed on the LCD display).
