Phi value only ever showing two values? (Pic inside)

[Concorde Rules]

Ok fixed it...

By reinstalling windows and 2.1.4 phidget installer and 4.3.7 (IE one version back of both!)





What did you change between those versions?

[CocnutAir]

Cannot remember, I make a number of changes between versions. Sometimes because Phidgets Inc. have made changes to their software.

For instance, to date, have now made changes:
- for this thread, that Rick has now confirmed works with Phidgets 2.1.5 on version I sent him.
- on another thread, an enhancement for Nat, for his specific pmSystems encoder requirement.
- for myself.
- bug fix with the LED Configure button for another user.

All this while commuting around the country with my job, working long hours, getting stuck in airports, having Christmas dinner with my family, taking care of my wife. Even for anonymous users too uncivil to introduce themselves.

Happy New Year,
Alan.

Ah, Yes, minefield!!! Even the simple code i've been playing with is a nightmare so I can understand the issues!!! (even if partly!).

I just needed this computer to be up and running correctly by the 3rd so it can be taken back and configured with the rest of the system properly. I shall continue playing here with my laptop to see if I can recreate the problems and get closer to an answer for you and smithrb23 (although without the card myself I can't do alot sadly ) Got two days before it all needs to go back but a reinstall of windows *grr* is on the cards before hand .

Also well aware of the commitments from other things you need to do, was never expecting you to spend even like more than a minute in a day looking at it And sorry for not introducing myself, never had to before on a forums so its not in my system to do so

There is no requirement to introduce yourself on this web site or any other. It is just common courtesy.
There was a time when the English were a civil and courteous people. I sometimes see this lack of civility with the Scandanavians as well. Maybe its the cold or, I guess, that is what years of English soccer does to a person.
The rest of Europe, Asia and America are still polite. Aussies and Kiwis are always good fellas. Never met an Aussie I didn't like.

If a person extends you the courtesy of offering to assist with a problem you're having, on their time, it is it considered polite to at least extend the courtesy by introducing yourself.

Just the first name your mother gave you. Unless, you're working undercover (in which case "James" will work), are a fugitive from Scotland Yard or dodging alimony payments. Don't want to clean out your bank account, marry your sister or steal your title and land.

I guess I am old fashioned and grew up in a different generation. Where I come from we still open doors for ladies no matter how old.

Now everybody is aware of what my pet peeve is.

Thanks for everyone help in this one.

I'm Gordon and leading the team at Brooklands Museum in Surrey in the UK on the original Concorde simulator restoration, where we are using FS2Phidget to interface to the Autopilot and warning systems, plus the LCDtext units to give us some data where we don't yet have instrumentation working, such as compass and Altimeters.

"Concorde Rules" (James) was able to take time out from his Christmas collage vacation to build up the PC for this add on to the system.

I been worked on my development PC using 4.37 and 2.14, so it looks like the trouble all came about when we built the new pC with the latest versions.

Anyway, looks like we've got an interim solution to get us up and running.

If anyone is interested, have a look at this clip on you tube of our progress so far.

Happy New year to everyone on here and a big thanks to Alan for a really neat software programme.

The majority of the English I deal with via e-mail are still of 'The Polite Society' types. And I appreciate that. The Germans too. I still address someone in Germany as Sie instead of Du unless I'm told it isn't neccesary.

And I still hold open doors for any ladies. Unless they beat me to it.

Gordon,

Great project. I have a build that now works on Rick's system.
I can zip it up and send to either yourself or James.
Let me know.

Regards,
Alan.

[gordo]

Great, you can send it to me or James, it will get on to the system either way!
