I am presently using hacked joysticks to run my switches, and a USB cable to power LED's. I want to take it to the next level, but I am a bit confused as to what type of card I should get.
I only have a basic cockpit, and need to run around 30 to 40 switches and about a dozen or so LED's. I have the registered version of FSUIPC 4.
Where I am confused is what software, and or type of I/O card do you need to be able to have a few annunciators like Ice Warning, Door Open, transitional landing gear, OMI Lights etc...Is FSUIPC capable of doing this with a Leo Bodnar card, or do you need something more sophisticated, such as an Open Cockpits card?
I have read the FSUIPC manuals and the Open Cockpits manuals, but I am still confused as to what I need.
Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Bill
