Helios Running On Surface Pro 4 Help

[MudzNZ]

Hi guys,

 

 

I am looking to use my Surface Pro 4 as a second screen running helios. I believe this is possible using a remote PC but I am unsure how to configure it and I cant seem to find any guides with using a remote pc.

 

 

I have Helios installed on both my DCS PC and my Surface tablet. I also have the Captain Zen f18 profile on both.

 

 

 

Could anyone help me with this or point me to guide I can follow to get me started.

 

 

Thanks

Yes, it's possible, unless you are looking at exporting displays. But switches will sync remotely. You need to set the IP address of your DCS host PC in the general parameters of your Helios profile using the profile editor.

No luck. I entered in my IP address of the DCS pc and opened the port in the firewall. I have attached an image of the profile on my surface pc.

 

 

Also I have gHost = 192.168.1.188 in my export.lua on the dcs pc which is pointed to the surface, I seen that somewhere

you might have to specify the install path too. that part relates to dcs as a whole, not a10 specific iirc

But DCS isnt installed on the Remote PC. Should I just create the folders regardless?

I think you need to do something similar with DCS-BIOS installed on your DCS PC to tell where DCS BIOS needs to send the info. That should be at the top of the config file in your /script/DCS BIOS. (sorry not on my sim PC right now).
