IOCservos software - what is it for?

[will1911]

I have been using the opencockpits SIOC software for a while now and it works very well for me. Recently I bought a few servo's and the OC USB servo's card with it. When I connect it, I can drive the servo's using SIOC as well. It just shows up as another device. But on the OC website, there's also a little utility up for download called 'IOCservos'. What's the use of this application? Should I be using this? I can't seem to find an English manual, so I have no clue...

I have many servos on my setup and just use SIOC with the USBServos card. Have never even noticed this "IOCservos" application

The IOCservos.exe and .ini applications are obsolete now.
This was used in previous versions of SIOC.

Hello will1911

IOCServos.exe is obsolete in a way though still can be very useful.

It includes a IOCPclient which is a nice feature for those who want/need
to run OC hardware on a remote PC - just point to the main SIOC server
in the IOCServos.ini file.

You'll find a well hidden manual here:

Cool, thanks. I guess that might be of some use to me. The manual made it all clear to me!
