Has anyone successfully implemented xBox360 code for trigger acceleration ala Lee's Mach3 controller?  Willing to share?

I've written code for Daz's plugin for my lathe but it doesn't increase speed with thumb stick and trigger like Lee's does.  I don't use the trigger as a lock like some.  I disable the controller when not in use in case I bump it while doing something else.

Just picked up a mill and would like to not reinvent the wheel if someone is willing to share.

Try something in your script like

local Xval = math.abs(GetXin("LTH_X_Val")) -- to get value of the stick
mc.mcJogSetRate(mInst, mc.X_AXIS, Xval) -- set the jog rate
Here`s a small extract from a script I used a while back but have`nt used it in a while so just for reference

function SetJog()
local Xval = math.abs(GetXin("LTH_X_Val"))
local Yval = math.abs(GetXin("LTH_Y_Val"))
local Zval = math.abs(GetXin("LTH_Y_Val"))

if mc.mcJogGetRate(mInst, mc.X_AXIS) ~= Xval then
mc.mcJogSetRate(mInst, mc.X_AXIS, Xval)
end
if mc.mcJogGetRate(mInst, mc.Y_AXIS) ~= Yval then
mc.mcJogSetRate(mInst, mc.Y_AXIS, Yval)
end
if mc.mcJogGetRate(mInst, mc.Z_AXIS) ~= Zval then
mc.mcJogSetRate(mInst, mc.Z_AXIS, Zval)
end
end
