encoder in SIOC

[sboons]

Hi again,

David helped me out with my problem showing heading on my sim-avionics.

Now I have the following problem:

I have a SIOC script to change my heading.
The goal of this script is only to change the heading bug on my virtual cockpit in FSX.

I have a CTS288 grey encoder from opencockpits, connected on the mastercard inputs 3 and 4 (and gnd off course)
When I look at the Controlador software, and turn the encoder I see:
RIGHT: 004 -> 003-004 -> 003 -> empty
LEFT: 003 -> 003-004 -> 004 -> empty

I think that is good?!

My script is:

Var 1, name X_HDG, Link FSUIPC_INOUT, Offset $07CC, Length 2 
{ 
// convert from fsuipc range to degrees: 
L0 = DIV &X_HDG, 182 
IF &HDG != L0 
{ 
&HDG = L0 
} 
} 


Var 2, name HDG 
{ 
CALL &OutHDG 
} 

Var 3, name OutHDG, Link SUBRUTINE 
{ 
// convert from degrees to fsuipc range: 
L0 = &HDG * 182 
IF &X_HDG != L0 
{ 
	&X_HDG = L0 
} 
} 

Var 4, name RO_HDG, Link IOCARD_ENCODER, Input 3, Aceleration 4 Type 2 
{ 
L0 = &RO_HDG // * -1 turning right should be plus 
&HDG = ROTATE 0, 359, L0 
}

Now in FS, when I turn the button to the right...
I see the heading bug move one degree to the right and immediately one to the left (for example 342 and instantly 341 again).
When I turn the encoder fast, it moves to the right, but very shaking and nog very well.

I changed the input number to 1 (that is my altitude encoder), the same happens, So I don't think it is a problem with the encoder.

Is there something wrong with my code?

Thanks again,
Steef

I was looking for the solution for about two days now..

Kept looking and found the solution!!

On: http://www.kennair.com.au/downloads/SIOC/Pedestal.txt

I now have the code cut from this:

Var 2000, Value 0  //  Initialization
{
&D_HDG = 360
}

Var 2004, Link FSUIPC_INOUT, Offset $07C8, Length 4 // AP_HDG_SEL
{
  IF V2004 = 1
  {
    &O_HDGSEL = 1
  }
  ELSE
  {
    &O_HDGSEL = 0
  }
}

Var 2005, name APD_HDG, Link FSUIPC_INOUT, Offset $07CC, Length 2 // APD_HDG

Var 2104, name D_HDG, Link IOCARD_DISPLAY, DEVICE 1, Digit 6, Numbers 3
{
  L1 = &D_HDG * 182.04444
  L0 = L1 + 1
  &APD_HDG = L0
}

Var 2212, name O_HDGSEL, Link IOCARD_OUT, DEVICE 1, Output 26



Var 2306, name E_HDG, Link IOCARD_ENCODER, Input 3, Aceleration 4, Type 2
{
  L0 = &E_HDG // * -1
  &D_HDG = ROTATE 1, 360, L0
}


Var 2426, name I_HDGSEL, Link IOCARD_SW, DEVICE 1, Input 28
{
  IF &I_HDGSEL = 1
  {
    IF V2004 <> 1
    {
      V2004 = 1
    }
    ELSE
    {
      V2004 = 0
    }
  }
}

And works perfect!!!

Maybe I can help soneone with this, thanks anyway
