// Ray Woodworth (949) 262-9118 has a three axis motion chair.
//
// It expects +/- 5V signals for full scale. In channel order, axes are:
// roll, pitch, yaw, sway, surge, heave
// The drivers are capable of generating (in the same order)
// +/- 30deg, 30deg, 30deg, 12in, 12in, 12in
// The signs of the motion are such that positive volts gives
// head right, head back, feet right, body right, body back, body up
//
// In this code implementation, the voltage outputs are generated
// using a ComputerBoards DDA06/Jr card and the associated Linux driver.
// Data is written to the device /dev/dda06jr-A as byte triplets;
// The first byte is the channel number (0-5 respectively) and
// the remaining two bytes are an unsigned short for the signal.
