In addition to simmeters another glasspanel utility, called Gauge Composer is now available for the Lockon series as an opensource project. The gauges are driven by a script language, so no extensive coding knowledge is necessary for the major functions.
The LO-IOCP/SIOC protocol of the Opencockpits modular platform has been already utilized in pit building for Lockon, you can seen some first cockpits at the french checksix Lockon forum which have cockpit warning lights, switches and buttons controlled by this system.. You can get the plans or kits of I/O cards in various stage of completion from them too..
