DCS-BIOS matrix and voltage divider support

[Dehuman]

Expanded input support for the wonderful DCS-BIOS.

 

I needed this for myself and kind soul that I am want to share it with the community ([FSF]Ian please feel free to use this in any future DCS-BIOS iteration, it would be an honour).

 

Support for a matrix of 2 and 3 position switches.

Support for multi-position rotary switches configured as voltage dividers (1k resistors between pins) up to 20 positions.

Matrices using shift registers coming next!

 

note: requires the SwitchMatrix library by Agoston Diamont

Nice work, this is something I was hoping someone would bring to DCS-BIOS.

 

Looking forward to the shift-register addition.

looks nice, can i integrade it in our BIOS fork?

[Dehuman]

Yes of course :)

Are there any tutorials on using this? I'm a bit in over my head trying to understand what I need installed on the Arduino and how this relates to the normal cut and paste commands I can use with the normal DCS-Bios interface.

check out the included readme file. If all installed you can copy paste the commands out of the HTML UI. If you do need further clarification on the instructions in the read me PM me.
