View Full Version : OC Controlador output check range problem

Hi fellow simbuilder!

We finally finished soldering the 737NG Overhead from FDS. And started a level one connection test to check outputs/inputs/7-seg connections to the OC IOCard suite. We have 3 Mastercards connected to a USBCard.

But we are unable to check the outputs (range 11-55, why is that?) beyond the first card! It seem that the range isn't expanding as new mastercards are connected!

We have changed both SIOC.INI and CONTROLADOR.INI to reflect 3 cards connected, but as we hit output 56 the overhead lights up like christmas tree!

Do we have a serious problems with the soldering (Please, God! say it isn't so!)?

Or must one disconnect the two other cards to check the one, which also poses a problem later on when we're going program the outputs in SIOC.

Thanx in advance people, we're really stumped on this one :(

Disregard the post!

Further investigation shows that MasterCard #2 most likely is blown!

All the soldering is correct, but we have LEDs that lights up every time we start the overhead, and this should not happen right. The do not repsond to ON/OFF commands in controlador either.

Are we jumping the gun?

Update:
Further investigation showed that my father had soldered an IC the wrong way on one of the Master Cards!
