I don't use the CP Flight products so cannot advise if everything will work together; however so far I have not found anything which interferes with Phidgets or the FS2Phidget software.
Please find a modified wiring diagram attached... I hope this is what you were asking for?
Good luck...
Rob

Problem autothrottle with the card Phidget
Hello Rob,
I have done everything as I have said and as you saw the picture.
Consider that my MCP is a CPFLIGHT connected with the MCP to PM.
Software FS2Phidget in controlling the Relais I had to insert the voice autothrottleRelais that I took from Simpart variables.
Only in this way Enabling servo, but remains firm and activated without performing any movement. By Phidget manager moving well
then everything worked while in flight autopilot and AT armed entered the Relais trigger servo but do not move. Maybe I have to change the ". Ini" of MCP PM? CPflight of opportunities?
One thing is sure I do not know what to do more.
Regards, Paolo

I don't use the CPFlight hardware so I cannot offer any suggestions on how to set it up... however I think it is very important to get the system working one piece at a time before trying to connect everything.
For example I recommend that you just use a manual switch for sending power to the Throttle Servos and make sure that the throttles move correctly BEFORE attaching the Phidget Relay.
One other question is can you show us a photo of your FS2Phidget setup for the Throttle Servos; I would like to see the variables selected and the 'configuration' window?
Regards,
Rob

Folks,
sorry if I wake up this old topic but I have exactly the same problem:
I have a Simparts Throttle and currently just problems to connect the throttle lever servo's to the computer correctly.
I use the 8/8/8, the 0/0/4 and two One Servo Motor Cards.
The One Servo Motor Cards are owning just the USB cable connector and the connectors for the servo, but no connectors for a extern power source (12V).
I do not understand what the "y-cable" element is. Is it just a wire bridge or a seperate device?
I understood now the drawings as follows:
I connect the yellow and the black wire of the servo directly to the servo card. I connect the red wire to the +5 V external power source and GND of the power supply to the Common of 0/0/4. You gave the hint that before using the 0/0/4 I chould use just a normal switch. But how should I connect the GND of the power supply with the servo? (that is refering to the question what "y-cable" is).
Thank you for your support.
Merry x-mas from Germany,
Robert

I've just wanted to report that I've found the answer by my own. Its a cable included in the motors package. And there you have to cut the wires as stated in the pictures...
