Morty718 Posted November 20, 2022 Posted November 20, 2022 Once I have the code correct and everything complete with my home cockpit build, does DCS BIOS need to run in the background the whole time with the correct com port connected?
No1sonuk Posted November 20, 2022 Posted November 20, 2022 (edited) Socat does, yes. Edited November 20, 2022 by No1sonuk
Buzzkillington Posted November 22, 2022 Posted November 22, 2022 And you will probably have several running. I have an icon on my desktop that kicks off 16 socats one for each aurduino.
Morty718 Posted November 23, 2022 Author Posted November 23, 2022 I'm sorry for my ignorance, but what is a socat?>
No1sonuk Posted November 23, 2022 Posted November 23, 2022 Socat is the program that runs the USB interface with the Arduinos. If you don't know that, you might be using the out of date 'Hub" version of DCS-BIOS.
