phidgets i/o

[CocnutAir]

Paul and Spiro,

Just to reiterate regarding FSUIC. If you are running apps on same machine, FSUIPC and Wideserver will need to be installed and configured.
Would also recommend taking a stroll over to Peter Dowson's forum.

The rest of you,
Do we have anybody running FSX with FS2Ph out there?

Regards,
Alan

Coiuld someone please explain to me "in baby steps" where this illusive file is for download. (and what version is the "new" version)

Hi Alan, I use FS2Ph with FSX. I use the 8-servo card to run my throttles and an 0/16/16 card to turn on and off the power to the servos and to run a 12 volt light for the park brake. I also have servoes set up for elevator trim, flaps and spioler handle, not yet mounted. And a led64 card for all annunciators on the main panel. I have also made my own flap transit and flap extended lights by using 2 servoes and FS2Ph. the servoes are mounted facing each other with a cam wheel on one and a micro switch on the other. with the servoes set for the flap handle on one and the flap position on the other. So if the flap servoes agree then the "EXTENDED" light is on, if the handle and the flaps are not in agreement then the micro switch is depressed and the "TRANSIT" light is on. And FS2PH turns the light(s) off when both are in the full retract position.

Love your software...Andy

Die meneer van Joburg,

I think you meant elusive - "hard to find or catch" e.g Naas Botha was elusive when he had posession of the ball.
Illusive means illusionary e.g DirecTV's free offers are usually illusive.

Which elusive application are you looking for: Phidgets, FSUIPC or FS2Phidget?

Regards,
Alan.

Spiro,

Did you look at the Wideserver log as I recommeded?
What did it list?

I have not run Phidgets with FSX.
Will have to defer to expertise of someone like Andy.

Regards,
Alan.
