    SIOC Problems

    Hello everyone,

    After consulting The O/C SIOC Examples Forum, the SIOC manual and one of the SIOC presentations I'm still stuck with a basic SIOC script.

    I'm trying to program Input 12 (SPST Switch) of the Opencockpits Transponder to the offset $70BC, the A/P MASTER switch. I created the following SIOC Code:

    Var 9000 Link IOCARD_SW Input 12 Type P
    var9001=V9000
    Var 9001 Link FSUIPC_OUT Offset $07BC Length 4

    And it will not even compile, I know the problem lies within line 2 of the code.

    Basically, I just want to know how to program Input 12 to Offset &07BC. Please don't tell me off, I have looked and read manuals I just still don't understand.

    Thanks alot,

    Jack

    Jack,

    paste one of the SIOC examples you've looked at into a post here. Then we'll have a look at how yours differs from one that works.

    Jim.

    Re: SIOC Problems

    Jack,
    The curly brackets are required, this is the part is executed.
    Var 9000 Link IOCARD_SW Input 12 Type P
    {
    v9001 = V9000
    }
    Var 9001 Link FSUIPC_OUT Offset $07BC Length 4

    Hope this helps, im no expert but it compiles alright for me.

    Les

    Re: SIOC Problems

    Okay tried the curly brackets. It compiles fine, but nothing happens when I hit the ident button.

    A picture of my SIOC screen at the time:



    The code as it stands:

    Var 9000 Link IOCARD_SW Input 12 Type P
    {
    v9001 = V9000
    }
    Var 9001 Link FSUIPC_OUT Offset $07BC Length 4

    Jack,
    If you take a look at the SIOC screen you will see FSUIPC Status: Disabled.
    I guess you have not enabled FSUIPC in your sioc.ini ...

    Hi Nico,

    That is 100% correct. Just a question - Is, by default, FSUIPC disabled in SIOC?

    Why do you care about that? If your SIOC script uses FSUIPC offsets YOU should Enable FSUIPC in sioc.ini. If your script does not use FSUIPC Offsets YOU should Disable FSUIPC in sioc.ini.

    I don't know what is specified in the sioc.ini that comes with a fresh install of sioc, but again, who cares, YOU always have to configure SIOC, not only w.r.t. FSUIPC but also about how many Master Cards you have, and so on...

    Nico
    P.S. Don't forget to define the FSUIPC refresh rate as well

    Re: SIOC Problems

    Okay, the problem persists.

    I am running the script, and FSX with FSUIPC installed is sucessfully recognised by SIOC. However, I push the IDENT button, and nothing happens in-sim to the A/P MASTER.

    Any ideas?

    Again, this is the current file (TESTs.ssi):

    Code:
    Var 9000 Link IOCARD_SW Input 12 Type P
    {
    v9001 = V9000
    }
    Var 9001 Link FSUIPC_OUT Offset $07BC Length 4
    And a picture of the SIOC interface:


    "Why do you care about that?"

    I am just curious to see if I had accidently disabled it somehow, or if it is disabled by default.

    Re: SIOC Problems

    What aircraft are you running in Flight Simulator? Not all aircraft support the FSUIPC offset $07BC ... The Level-D 767 for instance does not. You have to use the Level-D SDK for that.
