Throttle via OC-SIOC potentiometer

[eaglewen]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to make my throtlle (connected via a potentiometer on an OpenCockpit-analoag input) work under the F-16.

 

I already have a lot of controls and lamps working but I have difficulties to read a potentiometer.

 

What code I should use in SiocConfig.lua? Curently I'm using the code below but that isn't working...would be to easy I guess :music_whistling:

 

-- CONTROLS INTERFACE

[755] = {SimplePotentiometer, 0, 1},--THROTTLE

 

In my mainPanel.lua the throttle is defined so I think I should use 0 for the device definition, correct? Problem is I can't figure out what the pNumber needs to be

 

-- CONTROLS ---------------------------------------------------

StickPitch = CreateGaugeLocal(736, {-1, 1}, {1, -1}, controllers.StickPitch)

StickRoll = CreateGaugeLocal(737, {-1, 1}, {-1, 1}, controllers.StickRoll)

Rudder = CreateGaugeLocal(780, {-1, 1}, {-1, 1}, controllers.Rudder)

Throttle = CreateGaugeLocal(755, {0.0, 0.1, 0.775, 1.0}, {0.0, 0.1, 0.6, 1.0}, controllers.Throttle)

LeftWheelBrake = CreateGaugeLocal(781, {0, 1}, {0, 1}, controllers.LeftWheelBrake)

RightWheelBrake = CreateGaugeLocal(782, {0, 1}, {0, 1}, controllers.RightWheelBrake)

 

 

In SIOC I'm currently sending a value between 0 and 255 to the var 755.

 

Many thanks for helping me out in this.

 

Greetings

Werner
