COM1 and NAV1

COM1 and NAV1

I know this is not the first time that I have said that the pedestal is somewhat finished. But this time it is almost true. 🙂

I just need a few adjustments and then I can close “Phase 1”. (Phase 1 was getting the essential radios to work)

Right now all I need is to connect the last radio-mudules to my display-card. Just have not had the time yet.

I have used single controllers (CTS288 encoders) for my radios. This caused a bit of frustration because I could only be able to change the integer or the decimal with the encoder. So either I should have two encoders or buy new double-encoders or code a way out of it.

I got some help from Gert in Belgium and now I can change the integer when I turn the encoder and change the decimal when I push-and-turn the encoder. Works like a charm! You can find the SIOC code below the video. I works with ProSim but the basic idea should work for other “systems” as well. The main idea is simple the “IF ELSE” command at the beginning of the script (around the 3rd and 4th variable). If “1” (=pushed) then the decimal-function is used. ELSE the integer-function is used.

Oh! And the video now also has a small intro-logo 🙂

 

SIOC CODE for single controller.
Var 7203 and 7204 are where the magic happens! 🙂

About BuildaBoeing

My name is Peter and I live in Denmark.
I am building the cockpit of a Boeing 737 in my basement using my limited skills and inspiration from fellow builders.
I post my progress on this blog and hope it can be an inspiration to others.
