Kenpilot Posted April 3, 2024 Posted April 3, 2024 Any time I build a panel and or write/edit an arduino sketch, I of course startup DCS and test it in the game. I then will completely exit out of DCS to edit the Arduino sketch, upload it, and then start up DCS again to test it again. Is there any kind of short cut to not have to completely exit out of DCS and restart it once you've made an arduino sketch edit and upload? This is obviously very time consuming. I've tried just minimizing DCS but it doesn't recognize the new arduino sketch for the panel when I've tried it. Thanks for any suggestions!

agrasyuk Posted April 3, 2024 Posted April 3, 2024 What kind of sketches are you writing? If it is purely HID , then I'd say unplug, replug the device and then scan for new devices in the input binding menu. If you are making DCS-BIOS sketches I think restarting the mission will be sufficient. Anton. My pit build thread . Simple and cheap UFC project

I think I've tried just restarting the mission and it didn't work, but I'll try it again. Thanks for the response!

agrasyuk Posted April 4, 2024 Posted April 4, 2024 I didn't do any new devices recently but when I was debugging my pit I do not remember constantly restarting DCS. I was restarting the SOCAT though Anton. My pit build thread . Simple and cheap UFC project

agrasyuk Posted April 4, 2024 Posted April 4, 2024 SOCAT is the utility that presents the COM port your master board is on to the DCS-BIOS plugin. How are you connecting your devices without it? Are you using the old HUB version? Anton. My pit build thread . Simple and cheap UFC project
No1sonuk Posted April 8, 2024 Posted April 8, 2024 (edited) How are you connecting the arduino to DCS? If you're using SOCAT or the DCS-BIOS bridge, you can disconnect those by alt-tabbing out of the DCS mission. Then edit your code, upload to the arduino and reconnect it. Alt-tab back to DCS and test. Edited April 8, 2024 by No1sonuk
Kenpilot Posted April 13, 2024 Author Posted April 13, 2024 (edited) I've got it figured out, thanks guys! Edited April 13, 2024 by Kenpilot Windows 10 ASRock Z370 Extreme4 LGA 1151 (300 Series) MOBO intel i7-8700k (Not overclocked) 16 GB Ram EVGA GeForce GTX 108ti SC Black Edition SSD Trackir
