Bodnar card analogue through FSUIPC to set heading

[rjfon1]

Good Evening all.

I have a couple of bodnar cards, and some real aircraft instruments to put in an Aerocommander 685 which I have acquired.

I have VORs and HSIs which I was planning to convert. In theory, Simple. In practise, Ummmmmm!

My dilemma.

The VOR for example has a synchro used to sent the dial info to the NavRadio. I was planning to replace the synchro with a high quality continuous rotation pot. It almost worked.

I don't have a continuous pot, but tested with a normal pot. I did the following:

Calibrated the pot GOOD

Allocated the axis in FSUIPC GOOD

Assigned the axis using DWORD and offset 07CC GOOD - Recognised

Started in FSX and turning the pot caused the Heading bug to rotate, but unfortunately would only go from 270 to 090 through north. Don't know why this is happening. Anyone be able to help?

Thanks in advance.

Rob.

Offset 07CC represents the A/P heading value in a value which ranges from 0 for 0 degrees up to 65535 for 359.99999 ... degrees. A typical Bodnar axis sends values -16383 to +16383, which as an unsigned value would look like 49153 to 16383, giving your 270 to 90 result.

Try scaling the axis input by 2 (i.e. edit the axis assignment in the FSUIPC INI file to multiply the input by 2 -- details are in the Advanced User's guide).

Thanks Pete.

Hope you had a good trip away.

G'Day again Pete.

I tried editing the fsuipc4.ini file, but this only changed things slightly.

When scaling *2, the heading bug just went from 270 to 90 at partial rotation.

I tried .5 and all this did was reduce the changes from 180 degrees range to 90 degrees, rotated about the 0/360 north axis.

Any other thoughts?

Sorry. Forgot to mention that I tried adding 16383 as well with no luck.

Not without more information about what is going on, no. Why not try logging offset 07CC and the axis itself so we can see what is coming in and going out.

Maybe the Bodnar connection isn't doing what I thought it would be. I also do not know what actual assignment you are making it -- which FSUIPC control are you using?

Couldn't get to sleep last night trying to do the maths in my head.

I'll try a bit later, but I'm thinking that I will have to *4 then add 32768. Have to cook dinner, and look at it later or tomorrow.

As for the offset, I'm using the direct entry for the heading bug. It moves, so I know it's the correct one.

I'll post when I have some idea.

I feel like it's so close, but..........

Cheers,

Rob.

Doesn't sound right. Considering you got exactly half the range originally, *2 seems correct. Adding or subtracting something is irrelevant -- that just moves the '0' position. The value uses the complete range of a 16 bit word -- 0 to 65535. Adding or subtracting anything won't change that, you still need the complete range. Overflow off the top makes no difference.

As for the offset, I'm using the direct entry for the heading bug. It moves, so I know it's the correct one.

I know, 07CC. You told me that already. But how are you writing it? Are you assigning to an FSUIPC "Offset" control, and if so, which one?

I feel like it's so close, but..........

I'm sure it will be easy to work out what is going on with just a little logging. We need information, not guesswork.

Good Morning Pete.

PETE-Please The next post appears a bit clearer to me as I used U16 which created some numbers I recognised. I have left this one as you may also gleem something from it.

I have done as you suggested and created a Log. This is with Axis unmodified in fsuipc.ini

It seems to be logging as what I am seeing. For the test I did a left to right rotation which is indicated at FLT64: 270 (Which displayed 270degrees on the bug, the rotation to East indicated at FLT64: 089 (Close enough for me), then to North indicated by FLT64: 359 (Again close enough for me)

There were various ways to log, so I selected the top one being S8. Do you want it in another format? Easy enough to do.

Thanks for your time on this.

Rob.

Hi again.

As stated above I used U16 which created some numbers that I recognised. What do you make of it? This is with an unmodified FSUIPC.ini. Scroll down to the Red ++++++++ with FSUIPC modified to ,*2,+16384 and see what it reads. I'm starting to get brainfade. What is starting to confuse me is that everything appears to be positive, from full leftmost rotation to rightmost.

ie:270 degrees =49152 (I agree with that one)

1 degree = 163 (I agree with that one)

90 degrees = 16384 (I thought It had to be 65536???)

It does the same with both modified and unmodified FSUIPC.ini

When you say what offset are you using to control, what do you mean? At this stage I thought I was assigning directly to 07CC under Axes, and using DWord format

Thanks, Rob.

Good Morning Pete.

PETE-Please The next post appears a bit clearer to me as I used U16 which created some numbers I recognised. I have left this one as you may also gleem something from it.

No, there's nothing useful there because you didn't enable the axis logging. It was the input values for the axis which are needed.

But, on second thoughts, when assigning to an Offset control it may not go through the logging for axes ... I'll check that now. If so there's some sepcial debug logging which we can enable instead.

There were various ways to log, so I selected the top one being S8. Do you want it in another format? Easy enough to do.

S8 means "signed 8-bit", which is onviously completely wrong for an Unsigned 16-bit value! So the logging is not of any use for that reason too. U16 is unsigned 16-bit, same as Unsigned Word (UW).

I'll now look at the subsequent posting ...

Pete

[Pete Dowson]

As stated above I used U16 which created some numbers that I recognised. What do you make of it? This is with an unmodified FSUIPC.ini.

You still haven't told me what you assigned the axis to!!! That is the MAIN information missing all the way through this.

Scroll down to the Red ++++++++ with FSUIPC modified to ,*2,+16384 and see what it reads.

There's no point at all in adding 16384. That merely moves the 0 position. You can adjust that afterwards if you need to.

I'm starting to get brainfade. What is starting to confuse me is that everything appears to be positive, from full leftmost rotation to rightmost.

The value IS positive, why should it be negative? If you want to regard it as -180 to +179 instead of 0 - 359 as most folks would prefer, then you can easily interpret it that way. A 16-bit value in the computer represents 65536 values, and can be interpreted almost anyway you like, from 0-65535 or -32768 to +32767, or even some fixed point decimal value with some bits being fractions. If you log as U16 it is shown Unsigned (U=Unsigned), if you log it as S16 it is shown as signed (S=Signed)!

90 degrees = 16384 (I thought It had to be 65536???)

Wh? To start with, 65536 doesn't fit into 16-bits. It is 0. 0 = 0 degrees. 90 is a 1/4 of 360, and as the whole 360 is divided into 65536 parts, and 16384 happens to be 1/4 of 65536, it is surely obvious that 90 is represented by 16384?

When you say what offset are you using to control, what do you mean? At this stage I thought I was assigning directly to 07CC under Axes, and using DWord format

I was NOT asking what "offset" (I KNOW it is 7CC), I was askking which Offfset CONTROL you were using! The one you select from the dropdown list. There are many!

********* FSUIPC4, Version 4.80 by Pete Dowson *********

Sorry, I had not realized you were using such an old, unsupported version of FSUIPC. Please update before going any further.

Pete

[rjfon1]

Thanks Pete.

As for the version I have, I thought I bought it about 4 months ago when I bought the Friendly Panels Kingair.

As for the control, I used AP Heading bug. Is this the wrong one? I will update my fsuipc tomorrow.

Thanks.

You do not by a specific version, other than FSUIPC3 or FSUIPC4. Version 4.80 is now 14 months old and was superseded in July last year and has not been available anywhere official since then.

As for the control, I used AP Heading bug. Is this the wrong one?

Not an Offset control? What was all that about 07CC and DWORD, earlier then? I'm confused.

There's no control "AP Heading Bug". Did you mean "Ap panel heading set"? I can't make that work at all with an axis assignment. "Heading bug set" works, but for that you need values 0-359 only.

Until you tell me exactly what you've done I'm afraid there's no way for me to help. If you don't understand or can't find it, show me the [axes] section of the INI so I can see what you've done.

Regards

Pete

[Pete Dowson]

I've been experimenting, and found one way of doing it with the previous versions of FSUIPC4 (before 4.867, just uploaded to Download Links subforum), and the way I originally thought you were using but made to work by a change in FSUIPC 4.867.

The way which will work in any case is to assign to "Heading bug set" then add the scaling thus:

*0.0109863,+180

The multiplier is actually derived from 360/32768 which converts the 32768 range to the 360 range needed for this control. the +180 makes it 0-359 instead of -180 to +179, which the control doesn't accept.

The second way, using offset 07CC as I thought you were doing, will not work correctly unless you update to 4.867, just now available in the Download Links subforum. The reason a change was needed to FSUIPC is that the post-scaled values were being limited still to the range -16384 to +16383, because that's the standard axis range. In 4.867 i've relaxed that restriction altogether for axes assigned to offsets.

So, with this version you can assign to Offset Word Set, then add this scaling:

*2,+32768

The entries for both methods in my INI file are:

4=CY,256,F,66042,0,0,0,*0.0109864,+180

5=CZ,256,F,x020007CC,0,0,0,*2,+32768

and they both work fine provided your input from the axis consistently provides -16384 to +16383.

Regards

Pete

[rjfon1]

Pete, you are a LEGEND.

It works like a charm using the first method the way you stated.

I had previously tried with a +180, and the multiplier I was using was calculated through 360/65536 which didnt work.

And that's how the master of FSUIPC works. I can't thank you enough for your efforts. This will come in handy with my cockpit build and instrument conversions, that being my VOR and ADF.

Thank you, and hopefully I can leave you alone.

Rob

PS:I will updat my FSUIPC as you suggested.

Hi Pete and all.

Just found a new problem.

Source of continuous rotation potentiometers.

'Continuous rotation is a very selective word meaning 'Almost Continuous'

The rotation of the pot is continuous, agreed, but the best electrical rotation I've found is 340degrees, which means I'd have a very big gap.

Any ideas of wherer I could get a true360degree rotation pot?

Bearing in mind that the original gist of this thread was relating to Pete Dowson's interface, I may have to start a new thread.

Thanks in advance,

Rob.

Sorry, I've really no idea when it comes to sourcing hardware. You could try googling it I suppose. In the UK I always used to get stuff from Maplins, but they wouldn't be any good for specialist needs. Maybe Contad? www.conrad-uk.com. Do you have anything in Australia?

Pete

[Andydigital]

Pots are no good for heading selection dials or anything similar, you need rotary encoders with fast and slow turn detection. Imagine even if you could get a pot that turned 360 degrees, it useless, think of the situation where you are on a heading of 350 degrees and you want to make a right turn to a heading of 10 degrees but the pot will only turn right as far as 360 before hitting its end stop. That means you have to turn the pot left 350 degrees instead and the aircraft will turn left too. Pots simply are not suitable.
