Trounce Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 I have searched for about 2 weeks to no avail trying to find out if I can export CDU data. I would like (in a perfect world) to put the data onto a PSP or Vita screen or something also similar. Can anyone help? I suck horribly at sketching the micro-controllers myself!! However, from what I have seen so far, it is appearing that the CDU data is exported by video. Well, can it be exported as video via USB and and pushed onto a screen? Any and all assistance would rock so much. Thanks! -Trounce-
marluk Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 (edited) I think that usb monitor should be enough. Because dcs supports multiple monitors. Also by editing lua file you can export cdu or mfcd with custom position and resolution on that addtional monitor.

McMicha Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Hello Trounce, I just try something like this for the Ka-50 implementation, but since the PVI-800 navigation computer. The data is provided by export script from the game. The display runs on a touch screen monitor at a Raspberry Pi. The display program I am writing in python and tkinter. If this works, then I'll try that out for the CDU, the A-10C. Since I have already found the data to be exported. Sorry for my poor english, is a google translation.

FSFIan Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 You might be interested in agrasyuk's Raspberry Pi-powered CDU build. DCS-BIOS | How to export CMSP, RWR, etc. through MonitorSetup.lua
agrasyuk Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 CDU screen can indeed be exported In a form of viewport(as he matter of fact thats how it is mostly extracted so far). But doing so is a load on video system, and as fas I know USB will have further negative impact on performance . Then Ian announced that his DCS-BIOS solution can extract and send the CDU screen as text, broken down into separate rows even. So my idea was to listen to DCS BIOS export stream with exactly that - RPi. Works a treat and on top of that same script interprets keypresses on keyboard attached tho the PI and can send those back to Sim. I was working on making my own keyboard but got sidetracked by CMSP. Ian already posted a link for you. Let me know if you have questions Anton. My pit build thread . Simple and cheap UFC project

Getting the information from the screen in the form of text is exactly what I'm looking for. I would like to run any of my panels with the most minimum tax on my PC. Ian's link is pretty cool. Thanks for the reply.
