SIOC_Creator problem

Post by jtec »

Hi Jean Luc,

While generating the scripts for SIOC, I'm encountering a posible issue with the BRK_FAN button. Even if I check the "Latching Switch" option, the BRKFAN_Latch value in the generated FMGSServer.iocp.ini file is always set to zero. To make the hardware function correctly, I have to manually change it to 1 after the file is generated.

In addition to this issue, I have another question regarding the SIOC variables that are generated: FO_QNH_DISP, CPT_QNH_DISP, and FCU_VS_DISP. What do these variables represent exactly? I initially thought that, like SPD_disp, HDG_disp, and ALT_disp, they might hold the full numeric value, but they always seem to be zero.

For integration with LCD displays, having the full QNH value in a single variable would make things easier for me, rather than needing to reconstruct it digit by digit.

Thank you for your assistance!

Best regards,
Jose.

Hi

I will fix the BRK fan latching variable in next release.
Regarding the displays you mention, the problem is about SIOC handling of displays. I have to hanlde each 7seg individually and waht you seek is not possible. You could make your own subroutine to stich the final value together into a single variable, and put that subroutine in your own SIOC Code text file that my software will append to the final script.
Regards,
Jean Luc

Hi Jean Luc, thank you very much for the quick response. In the end, by modifying the code of the LCD screen library, I managed to individually modify each digit, which makes the final solution even more efficient.

Regards,
Jose
