SIOC and outputs (lights) problem

[Darkwolf]

Dear Everyone,

 

 

I'm looking for information about the SIOC use. I found the tutorial from Pancake, which was really nice to get started (if you read me, thank you very much!!).

 

If i suceeded with inputs in the system, the tutorial don't talk about outputs, and the comments in Oakes's export script didn't helped. I tried a few things, but i think something is missing.

 

Do anyone know how to set SIOC and Oakes scripts to setup real lights ? Or do anyone has any idea where to look for ? I found a lot of topic to go thru, but no explanation of the setup.

 

 

Thank you for your help !

 

 

Regards,

Wolf.

Hi Darkwolf. Sounds you in the same situation as myself some 'time' ago. Got the first stain of gray on my scalp then :-) Got some really appriciated help to troubleshoot my setup to get it working

 

To ease the task, upload your:

export.lua

exportsupport.lua

siocconfig.lua

Any referenced files for your indicators (if used)

A text export of your sioc scriptfile can be usefull

 

Cheers

Gus

Hi Duckling,

 

Thank for your quick reply.

 

Attached the file you were mentionning, and a couple of screens of my SIOC software settings. The lights works in SIOC test mode.

 

I'm still building the pit but with a few lights, SIOC and opencockpit's USB output i tried to setup a temporary LWS.

 

I found the LWS ID in the devices.lua.

 

devices["LASER_WARNING_SYSTEM"] = 36

 

 

Then the light ID in mainpanel_init.lua :

 

 

LWS_LampAzimuth_0 = CreateGauge()

LWS_LampAzimuth_0.arg_number = 25

LWS_LampAzimuth_0.input = {0.0, 1.0}

LWS_LampAzimuth_0.output = {0.0, 1.0}

LWS_LampAzimuth_0.controller = controllers.LWS_LampAzimuth_0

LWS_LampAzimuth_90 = CreateGauge()

LWS_LampAzimuth_90.arg_number = 28

LWS_LampAzimuth_90.input = {0.0, 1.0}

LWS_LampAzimuth_90.output = {0.0, 1.0}

LWS_LampAzimuth_90.controller = controllers.LWS_LampAzimuth_90

LWS_LampAzimuth_180 = CreateGauge()

LWS_LampAzimuth_180.arg_number = 26

LWS_LampAzimuth_180.input = {0.0, 1.0}

LWS_LampAzimuth_180.output = {0.0, 1.0}

LWS_LampAzimuth_180.controller = controllers.LWS_LampAzimuth_180

LWS_LampAzimuth_270 = CreateGauge()

LWS_LampAzimuth_270.arg_number = 27

LWS_LampAzimuth_270.input = {0.0, 1.0}

LWS_LampAzimuth_270.output = {0.0, 1.0}

LWS_LampAzimuth_270.controller = controllers.LWS_LampAzimuth_270

 

 

So i tried to set things as it :

 

 

 

LWSIndicators = {

[101] = {36,25},

[102] = {36,26},

[103] = {36,27},

[104] = {36,28},

[105] = {36,31},

[106] = {36,582},

}

 

 

[...slighly further ... ]

 

 

gIndicatorTables = {LWSIndicators, dataLinkIndicators, weaponsInterfaceIndicators, weaponsStationIndicators}

 

 

The software connect properly to SIOC as the LWS reset button works fine. I think i'm missing something somewhere but after a few day searching, i'm just lost. If you have any idea what i am missing i would really be gratefull. :)

 

During test flight, the lights works on the virtual Laser Warning System, not on my real LWS.

 

 

 

Thanks for the assistance,
