First attempt with Lua

What does this mean? What is an 'And function'?

If a lua script doesn't work, activate logging for lua plugins and try and determine what the problem is from the log output.

 

God tip I will do that.

 

Maybe it is not called function.

 

But the "And" between 66E1 and 66F5 don't work?

But I don't understand what you mean by this either. Show me the code and highlight the line you are talking about.

function myFunction(offset, value)

 

    -- read 1st axis offset

     val1 = ipc.readSD(0x66F5)

    -- read 2nd axis offset

     val2 = ipc.readSD(0x66E1)

    -- read Ground Speed offset

     groundSpeed = ipc.readSD(0x02B4)

     -- convert groundSpeed to Knots

     groundSpeed = (groundSpeed / 65536) * 1.94384

 

   if val1 > 14000 and val2 > 14000 and groundSpeed < 20 then

        ipc.writeUB(0x66E9, 1)

   else

        ipc.writeUB(0x66E9, 0)

   end

 

end

But thats just the function I gave you. I have still no idea what you are talking about. What do you mean by 'the "And" between 66E1 and 66F5 don't work'? What does 'don't work' actually mean? what is 'between'? What 'And'? You aren't making any sense to me.

When I press the brake pedal that sends data to offset 66F5 the Offset 66E9 change, from 0 to 1 witch is partly correct.

But when I push the brake pedal that sends data to 66E1 nothing happens.

 

What I want to happen is that I have to push bothe pedals to set 1 on 66E9.

 

And it should not matter if I  start pushing the left pedal that sends data to 66E1 or 66F5. The condition should be that bothe pedals should be pushed, and speed less then 20 knots.

 

When I  sad "and" between 66E1 and 66F5, don't work. I meant that the condition "and" dose not seem to do anything?

This line of code:

if val1 > 14000 and val2 > 14000 and groundSpeed < 20 then

 

It say if val1 and val2?

 

In my understanding the code should tak in to account both val1 and val2?

 

[John Dowson]

That line of code is correct. Are you sure that your axis values are being written to the offsets correctly?
Why not log the values before the conditional to see what they are, i.e. add the following line
     ipc.log("0x66F5=" .. val1 .. ", 0x66E1=" .. val2.. ", groundSpeed =" .. groundSpeed )

Also check that you are calling event.offset for those two offsets.

How do I do that in a correct way?

Is this the correct way? :

event.offset(0x66E1, "SD", "myFunction")

event.offset(0x66F5, "SD", "myFunction")

 

Is Ther any spacing I should be aware of, or careful with?

[John Dowson]

I am very busy at the moment and do not have time for basic/beginner lua questions. Please just try things out for yourself. We provide plenty of documentation and examples. There are many basic lua tutorials on-line. I have already given you plenty of information to get you started. And of course that is the correct way - if the bit of software that is writing to those offsets is writing it as a 32 bit signed integer. If not, it may be writing it as a 16bit signed integer (as Pete said earlier), in which case you need to change that to "SW" and change the read functions for those offsets from readSD to readSW. You have to make sure that you are reading offsets as the same type/length as you write them.

As well as taking john's good advice, do make good use of the tools at your disposal so you can see what is going on. As well as using Lua tracing (which can sometimes be a bit mind-boggling as it logs every step), try using the ipc.log function to just log details of what you read and write, and also make good use of the FSUIPC monitor facilities (right-hand side of the Logging tab) where you can monitor (to the FSUIPC log) the values of up to 4 offsets of whatever type they are.

To make things easier to see, run the Sim in Windowed mode and enable the FSUIPC console log. You will then see these logging entries in real time, on screen.

I can't get it to work?

The values are fluctuating from the Lua script. But the input signal seems fairly stable?

The code I have used. The lua script seem to send some strange values, could it be bad pedals? Is it in som way possible to filter in the lua script?

function HandleParkingBrake(time)

    ipc.log("HandleParkingBrake start:")
   
    rightRudderPedalValue = ipc.readSW(0x66F5)
    leftRudderPedalValue = ipc.readSW(0x66F6)
   
    ipc.log("rightRudderPedalValue")
    ipc.log(rightRudderPedalValue)
    ipc.log("leftRudderPedalValue")
    ipc.log(leftRudderPedalValue)
  

   if rightRudderPedalValue > 14000 and leftRudderPedalValue > 14000 then
        ipc.log("SOLENOID 1")
        ipc.writeUB(0x66E9, 1)
   else
        ipc.log("SOLENOID 0")
        ipc.writeUB(0x66E9, 0)
   end
   
   ipc.log("HandleParkingBrake end:")

end


event.timer(10, "HandleParkingBrake")

Could this code work?

That it disregard a -1 value?

Or is there any other filtering methods in lua?

 

function HandleParkingBrake(time)

 

    ipc.log("HandleParkingBrake start:")

   

    rightRudderPedalValue = ipc.readSW(0x66F5)

    leftRudderPedalValue = ipc.readSW(0x66F6)

   

    ipc.log("rightRudderPedalValue")

    ipc.log(rightRudderPedalValue)

    ipc.log("leftRudderPedalValue")

    ipc.log(leftRudderPedalValue)

  

   if leftRudderPedalValue <> -1 then

 

   if rightRudderPedalValue > 14000 and leftRudderPedalValue > 14000 then

        ipc.log("SOLENOID 1")

        ipc.writeUB(0x66E9, 1)

   else

        ipc.log("SOLENOID 0")

        ipc.writeUB(0x66E9, 0)

   end

   

  else

      

   ipc.log("HandleParkingBrake end:")

 

end

 

end

 

 

event.timer(10, "HandleParkingBrake")

I see you have changed to using signed words now. Did you verify that this is correct, using FSUIPCs offset monitoring, as suggested by Pete?
If you have confirmed that it is indeed a signed word, then good - some progress...

But you are making the same mistake again. A Signed word is two bytes, so if you have one at offset  0x66F5, it will cover 0x66F5-0x66F6 (2 bytes) inclusive,  and the next should be at 0x66F7, and not 0x66F6. So your values are overwriting each other, which is most probably why you are seeing strange values.

Please don't post should large (and useless) log extracts. You have gone way overboard with the logging. A single log line, or maybe two, would help you see things a lot clearer (and shorten the log considerably). Remove ALL your current log lines, and use something more like what I previously advised, something like

(two dots is the string concatenation operator in lua, FYI)

Why have you gone back to using event.timer instead of event.offset? Up to you of course, either will work.
