This would be sooooo great! Gesendet von meinem SM-S928B mit Tapatalk

After building a A-10 pit with a friend, I started a F-18 pit. The A-10 pit is much more complicated interms of the panels. But the cockpit structure is complex in the F-18. I think both planes are cool. Gesendet von meinem SM-S928B mit Tapatalk

I would create one panel after another. It always motivated me, when I saw the result of a running panel. But it is a long journey. Keep on going. Keep posting your results. Below the first photo and the last on my phone of my pit. 2.5 years between

It works!!! I tested 3 slaves. 1 Uno and 2 Megas. Just the Master connected to the PC. The slaves are communicating via the RS485 modules. Gesendet von meinem SM-S928B mit Tapatalk

After the succesful test, I designed the PCB's for th RS485 modules. I will connect each board with these micro latch connectors. The screw terminals are for connecting the arduinothe the board. The Red ans blue jumper is for deconnecting the RX ans TX when loading New arduino sketch. Gesendet von meinem SM-S928B mit Tapatalk

So i tried it with 1 MEGA as the Master, a MEGA as slave 1 and a Arduino UNO as slave 2. --> it worked! But I had to change the RX/TX on the clone mega's. I wired it exactly as in my picture above exept the slave mega uses TX0 and RX0, as No1sonuk mentioned.

you are right. I will try it. Thanks.

I have now made a diagram of the wiring. Can anyone confirm that this is correct? I think I have read that there can be problems using an Arduino MEGA as a slave? Is this correct?

Why the resistor and the condensator? Gesendet von meinem SM-G988B mit Tapatalk

Thanks a lot for your ideas. Yes in the meantime, I also know, that I only can have 1 driver. So I will return the 730. What should work us having a small AMD Radeon card beside the 4080. Gesendet von meinem SM-G988B mit Tapatalk

Hello everyone, I would like to control the 5 displays for my F/A-18 simpit via HDMI outputs. Since I don't have enough connections on my RTX 4080, I thought I would install a GEFORCE GT730 as a 2 graphics card. This would give me an additional 4 HDMI outputs. When I plug the card into the PC, it is recognized. The existing RTX 4080 is displayed in the device manager, but has an error. The GFORCE 730 is listed without a problem Nevertheless, I have connected my monitor to the RTX4080 and I also get a picture. I can no longer start NVIDIA Control Panel as it tells me that no device is available. I haven't changed anything on the driver side yet. Does anyone have experience with a second graphics card in the rig?

Do you use xDesign in the browser? Thats a complete different CAD. As vince said, you have to install Solidworks connected Gesendet von meinem SM-G988B mit Tapatalk

What dou you want to Import to Solidworks? There us an Option in the Import area called 3D-Interconnect. It has to be activated Gesendet von meinem SM-G988B mit Tapatalk

Did you know that SOLIDWORKS has an offer for hobbyists? "SOLIDWORKS for Makers". This includes SOLIDWORKS Professional and a few 3DEXPERIENCE roles. I.e. Cloud PLM to be able to access the data from anywhere. You can also save the data on your own hard disk as normal. All for 48$ per year. https://www.solidworks.com/solution/3dexperience-solidworks-makers null

I order my pcb's on JLPCB. Minimum quantity is 5pc. But the quality is perfect. And they are really fast. From ordering to my home adress in switzerland it takes about 5 days. This inludes manufacturing.the prince for each PCB is very low. Gesendet von meinem SM-G988B mit Tapatalk

Thanks, I have to try this. Gesendet von meinem SM-G988B mit Tapatalk

Hello everyone, Can I program a normal push button in DCS-BIOS so that the signal remains, after pressing it once and the signal disappears, again when it is pressed again? I would like to use normal LED push buttons for these keys in the Select Jettison Panel of the F/A-18C. The button should then only check the status of the signal. If signal present --> signal off If signal off --> signal on

I also run all my backlight and illuminated buttons off a 12V source Gesendet von meinem SM-G988B mit Tapatalk

we would appreciate it very much if the decoupling of the HMCS would be possible in the future. This would make our 270° screen much more awesome null

This would be the solution! Its funny, if you ask ChatGPT, this is exactly the solution that ChatGPT suggests. But unfortunately no axis commands exist in DCS to control the position of the HMCS - lol.

should there not be a special library you have to call?

we use a leo bodnar board and a keymapper software. there I assigned 3 times Ctrl-E to a keypress

I start about 30 COM ports via the multiple-com-script. Thats no problem. You can do this at any time you want. You can end it and restart even duribg flight Gesendet von meinem SM-G988B mit Tapatalk

Any news on this? Gesendet von meinem SM-G988B mit Tapatalk
