ARDUINO + FSUIPC + PROSIM737

[MM007]

Hi, 

 

Im new in the topic.

Tyring to connect arduino uno with prosim737.

I followed:

https://mickeys-flightdeck.de/2019/04/07/connecting-an-arduino-to-prosim737/

(interfacing arduino with prosim737 via SIOC/IOCP server)

 

If you go to prosim737 / config / configuration / combined config

and assign any event from the list to a specific variable (e.g MCP/HDG assigned to IOCP variable no.1 - you have to type 1 next to HDG)

then you can easily read this variable using arduino.

It works.

But now Id like to read different variables/events which are not listed there. 

How can I do this?

The aim is to read e.g. ailerons position via arduino connected via ethernet.

Thx for any help/suggestions.

Hi,

I think you are here in the wrong place as this is the support forum for FSUIPC but not for Ardunio, ProSim or IOCP. It might be that some other user is able to help but you might be better off at IOCP forum.

Is it possible to get some P3D parameters directly to arduino using fsuipc? (using ethernet connection)

 

or how can I build a widefs client on arduino (ethernet) to read some events/varibles from fsuipc?

Hi,

to do so you can write a script in Lua that then runs within FSUIPC or WideClient. Check the manual for that and have a look at the Lua examples that come with with FSUIPC installation.

I need to read about 20 parameters. Few of theme quite often - lets say 10/sec (aileron position). Will this method (fsuipc+lua) be fast enough?

 

[John Dowson]

Depends how you read them, but 10/sec sounds reasonable. If you use event.offset, your provided function will be called each time the offset value changes. Or you could use event.timer  to poll at any interval you specify. For lvars, you can use the event.lvar function, which has a minimum monitor time of 100ms.

Is there any video or any good step bu step example how to connect arduino via ethernet to fsuipc?
