Guest Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 I can pm him.. ;3390407']I'm sure you know Ciribob right? Would you guys be able to do a joint dev on this. This could be a start of a good thing may one day we will have DCS work with the Radio panel natively instead of needing a million programs. :D I can see great things in the future.
AbortedMan Posted February 23, 2018 Posted February 23, 2018 I'm thinking about buying a couple Saitek flight panels for use with DCS...are there any limitations with using DCS-BIOS or anything of the sort in multiplayer servers with the export function disabled? I'm new to this and what its requirements are, but I remember people with sim-pits being upset because export was disabled on most servers to prevent cheating...is this what gets ruined by exporting being disabled?

Hi AbortedMan, It's true that exports have to be enabled for DCS-BIOS to work. However, DCSFlightpanels and Logitech (formerly Saitek) panels can still work as keyboard emulators with limitations. Without DCS-BIOS, the Radio Panel will not function and Multi Panel displays can't be used. However, the Switch Panel, TPM Panel and Multi Panel buttons can be used in keyboard emulation mode with DCSFlightpanels. Also, I fly multiplayer almost exclusively and we always enable exports. Other things have been put into place to discourage cheating, at least in some cases. For example, TacView has a 10 minute delay mode that allows exports and stops cheating. I hope this helps.

Guest Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 I think there's a memory leak somewhere. I have tried to unplug and change the USB port, same issues. Could it be that the TPM is defect? You get that kind of behavior if a button or switch continuously sends data even if it isn't toggled.
Guest Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 We are working on it. Hopefully FC3 pilots will have Logitech Radio Panel functionality soon. ;3390407']I'm sure you know Ciribob right?

alonpet Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 @pdmarsh i just configured the UH-1 that i bought, it works fine exept the pz70 to configure the ALT pressure, what would be sintax for the formula that is the same to A-10 to work on UH-1 ? (ALT_PRESSURE0 + ALT_PRESSURE1*10 + ALT_PRESSURE2*100 + ALT_PRESSURE3*1000)*0.000152590219
Guest Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 Does this work? truncate( (PALT_1000*10000)/65536) @pdmarsh i just configured the UH-1 that i bought, it works fine exept the pz70 to configure the ALT pressure, what would be sintax for the formula that is the same to A-10 to work on UH-1 ?

pdmarsh Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Thanks, I will try @alonpet -- Let us know if that formula does not work. I'll have to do a little testing, but I should be able to come up with something as well.

Thanks, Paul Sorry but that formula doesn't work The dial remains on 99 and doesn't move maybe the sintax PALT is not correct
BlackLibrary Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 (edited) I have a little problem. My PZ 69 doesnt work anymore for the A-10C since i updatet to the 2.5Beta. in flightpanels the knops would be recognised. but ingame the frequ. would not show up on the panel ??? Also on PZ 70 no Alt and heading? Switches work fine! on 1.5.8 everything works fine Edited March 1, 2018 by BlackLibrary aka WarLord DCSFlightpanels DCS-BIOS Fork DCSFlightpanels arduino-library DCSFlightpanels DCSFlightpanels-Profiles DCS FP / BIOS Discord Server

BlackLibrary Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Yes i have only one savegames DCS folder (Steam Version) and the Buttons (programmed via DCS-Bios) workes like a charm aka WarLord DCSFlightpanels DCS-BIOS Fork DCSFlightpanels arduino-library DCSFlightpanels DCSFlightpanels-Profiles DCS FP / BIOS Discord Server
alonpet Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Yes i have only one savegames DCS folder (Steam Version) and the Buttons (programmed via DCS-Bios) workes like a charm If you instaled DCS 2.5 you have to have in saved games a folder: dcs open beta That's what i have and there i copied the DCS BIOS
BlackLibrary Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Thats right, but not in the steam version. I have one folder. All my mods and liveries are in this folder and everything works. exept the lcd Panels in on my Flightpanels (PZ69/70), they show only the defauls. I have all buttons programmed via DCS-Bios (in the Flightpanle programm) -> they work. aka WarLord DCSFlightpanels DCS-BIOS Fork DCSFlightpanels arduino-library DCSFlightpanels DCSFlightpanels-Profiles DCS FP / BIOS Discord Server

I have all buttons programmed via DCS-Bios (in the Flightpanle programm) -> they work. IN that case you should follow the instruction of PMARSH a few post above as i did to use a formula
BlackLibrary Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 i cant use a formula on the radio Panels??? for the ALT and heading maybe ,but i dont think my problem is in this direction. It has worked before the update. aka WarLord DCSFlightpanels DCS-BIOS Fork DCSFlightpanels arduino-library DCSFlightpanels DCSFlightpanels-Profiles DCS FP / BIOS Discord Server
alonpet Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 the radio panel should work independently , it works for me on A10,UH-1,with no setup
Guest Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 Yes the Radio Panel is the only panel that is fully programmed by DCSFP, no user configuration can be done at all.
BlackLibrary Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 (edited) Hm any ideas why its not working? i tryed it today with the huey everything ok exept the Radio pannel. I can change the freq. but when i hit the ACT/STBY button noting happens. Does anybody have the same problems? Can someone test pls?

pdmarsh Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 Sorry but that formula doesn't work The dial remains on 99 and doesn't move maybe the sintax PALT is not correct @alonpet -- Please try this formula. It applies to the pilot side pressure altitude adjustment. PALT_PRESS*0.004425116+2810 Let us know how it goes.

BlackLibrary Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 (edited) I have tryed everything i know to solve the problem, sadly with no success. Ihave installed DCS-BIOS and Flightpanels new. I have tryed other USB Ports Deleted all USB devices and instaled they new Deactivate Power Management for the panels (win 10) Go back to 1.5.8 now the same problem here. i have fond out that Flightpanels have an error log so i Post it here. In the rar are Error.log debug.log Discription of my error before i have the problem, i changed mv screen setup to a second screen, were i show the MFDs - i have it changed back as before -> no success thanks for any help Edited March 3, 2018 by BlackLibrary aka WarLord DCSFlightpanels DCS-BIOS Fork DCSFlightpanels arduino-library DCSFlightpanels DCSFlightpanels-Profiles DCS FP / BIOS Discord Server
Guest Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 From the error log it seems that it can't find (connect) DCS-BIOS. If you check the settings for DCS-BIOS in DCSFP are there IP address and so forth? Have you seen the wheel revolving at all in DCSFP with this DCS version? I have tryed everything i know to solve the problem, sadly with no success. Ihave installed DCS-BIOS and Flightpanels new.

Guest Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 Check the settings for DCS-BIOS. Are they correct. It might be that the json directory is wrong if you have another DCS version installed. Has anyone used DCSFP with DCS 2.5 Beta?
