Helios Users- New CH-47F Profile V1.0.3

If the patches aren’t installing, there could be some permission restrictions in windows preventing them from modifying the files.. but normally that should give you an error message and not install them at all.

I'm using Helios and export four of the MFD's and also another screen to display the RWR and Radar Alt.   All of my screens are touchscreen... but so far i've not used the touch element.   I  read you had used a 24" touchscreen.   Can the touchscreen part be used in conjunction with the MFD's ?    Or is that a step to far at this stage?

Apologies, I just saw this.. you can use the touch elements, but you need to add the ch-47 interface to your profile from the Profile Menu—> Add Interface…. If you add it BEFORE you dragged anything from the toolbox, then all of the buttons will auto-bind to the controls. However if you add the interface to your existing profile, you must bind everything manually. I would suggest deleting the current one ( or moving out of the Documents/Helios/Profiles folder and creating a new one.. Add the ch-47 interface and DCS Additional Viewports first, then drag the mfd’s and things out and size them… when you go to re “configigure”  in DSC Monitor setup, you will need to remove the old profile from the “combined” monitor setup( if thats where you have it, using the (-) next to it, then the trash can to delete it, then configure the new one…. Oh when you first add the interface it will have you “setup dcs”. That will write the driver file for it to communicate.
just a note, if you join CaptnZeen discord, that is the best place to get Helios help

ED Has changed a few  device ID's in the module, literally breaking everything in the profile. ( v 2.9.9.2280)
Bluefin has adjusted the interface to suit. Download the new interface from here-->  https://github.com/HeliosVirtualCockpit/HeliosInterfaces/blob/main/Helios.CH47F.hif.json

Until there is a new Helios release, place the new JSON interface in Documents/Helios/Interfaces/HeliosInterfaces folder.

New CH-47 Profile V1.0.2. Added Controls Indicator, Splash Screen, LAlt/RAlt modifiers, other minor adjustments. If you've installed the temporary "hotfix" interface in Documents/Helios/Interfaces/HeliosInterfaces, you can get rid of it if you updated Helios to 1.6.6120.0002 https://github.com/HeliosProfiles/DCS-CH-47F-Profile-by-MadKreator37/releases/latest (edited)
