  1. Thanks Vinc! I'll be trying this tonight or tomorrow. I'll PM you with any issues or further questions. Thanks so much for your help!!
  2. Thanks Vinc. The 4 digit 7 segment displays I have do have the max7219s attached I believe, so thank you for the suggeston for using this library. Unfortunately I still have no idea how the code should be written in the sketch as I know nothing about writing code. Up until now, I have just copied and pasted the appropriate code from BORT in to my arduino sketches. I was hoping someone that knows how to write code and has already written the code for these displays, wouldn't mind sharing it for those of us without coding knowledge and experience. If there's any kind of tutorial on writing code for these displays with regard to using them in DCS, please let me know, as I'd love to learn as well. Thanks!
  3. Building my A10 VHF Comm panels and I noticed for the frequency display and output for the Preselect Display, DCS Bios has you write your own code for the displays, and I'm clueless when it comes to this. Does anyone have a sketch I can "borrow" for these displays. For the Frequency display, I'm using an 8 digit 7 segmented LED display, (only 6 digits are visible in my panel) and 2 single digit 7 segmented displays for the preselect display. Thanks!!
  4. Okay thanks, I'll look in the files again. Looked before but didn't see anything. But now that I know what I'm looking for I might find it lol
  5. I play DCS on my desktop gaming pc, which of course also has DCS Bios and BORT installed. However, I want to be able to look up the BORT buttons/switches/knobs sketches, etc from my laptop for when I'm building my panels for reference. I've tried installing BORT on my laptop but apparently DCS and DCS Bios need to be loaded on the same computer to be able to look up the BORT information from what I'm experiencing. Does anyone have a list, or know where I can find a list, of all the BORT sketches, etc. for the A10 without having to run BORT? Thanks!
  6. Do you have any OLED suggestions? With links to where I can purchase them in the US if possible? I have zero experience with LED matrix displays and it definitely looks like a lot more wiring/work. It looks great though!
  7. Excuse my stupidity but what's the SOCAT?
  8. They are DCS Bios sketches. I think I've tried just restarting the mission and it didn't work, but I'll try it again. Thanks for the response!
  9. Any time I build a panel and or write/edit an arduino sketch, I of course startup DCS and test it in the game. I then will completely exit out of DCS to edit the Arduino sketch, upload it, and then start up DCS again to test it again. Is there any kind of short cut to not have to completely exit out of DCS and restart it once you've made an arduino sketch edit and upload? This is obviously very time consuming. I've tried just minimizing DCS but it doesn't recognize the new arduino sketch for the panel when I've tried it. Thanks for any suggestions!
  10. Hey guys, what is everyone using for their A10 CMSC and CMSP displays? I was using these https://www.ebay.com/itm/165013228347 but the one I had up and running is no longer working and I can only find them on ebay from China, and it takes about a month to get them to the US. I was hoping to find something here in the US that I can use that I can get a lot quicker, Amazon would be great. I'm using them with DCS Bios and Arduino. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
  11. I have not figured it out yet so thanks for the reply!! I'll give this a shot when I find some time to work on it. Thanks again!!
  12. Building the A10 CMSP and for the display, I copied the sketch from DCS Bios and its giving me an error code when I try to compile the sketch. error: 'onCmsp1Change' was not declared in this scope DcsBios::StringBuffer<19> cmsp1Buffer(0x1000, onCmsp1Change); error: 'onCmsp2Change' was not declared in this scope DcsBios::StringBuffer<19> cmsp2Buffer(0x1014, onCmsp2Change); I'm not familiar with the coding and language in the sketches, I just copy and paste, so please be gentle. Thanks!
  13. Thanks so much Vinc!!! I appreciate you taking the time to look that up and send me the sketch for it. I'm still going to check out the link you sent as well to try and educate myself on this stuff. I'm going to try this out in the next few days and hopefully get it working. Thanks again!!
