Hello,

before I will order the ATC 737 module from opencockpits, I watn to know if it will be compatible with the SimAvionics Suite.
As i havent found a SIOC Code only the IOCModules, I am not sure if the switches for Transponder code can be reassigned to be used with SimAvionics.

That's the module:
http://www.opencockpits.com/catalog/module-ppwhite-p-235.html?cPath=22_61
An this are the multioffsets for SA:


50 TCAS MODE SWITCH = OFF
51 TCAS MODE SWITCH = 1 (SQUAWKBOX)
52 TCAS MODE SWITCH = 2 (SQUAWKBOX + ND TRAFFIC)
53 TCAS MODE SWITCH = 3 (SQUAWKBOX + ND TRAFFIC + AUDIO)
54 TCAS MODE SWITCH = 4 (SQUAWKBOX + ND TRAFFIC + AUDIO + RESOLUTIONS)

Does anyone use the module successfully with SimAvionics?

Thanks for your help,
Markus

Hi Markus,

I am just in the process of bench testing SA with OC hardware. I don't have the OC plug n play ATC module only the self made ATC unit however the SIOC code to operate it will be exactly the same. I will implement the TCAS switches with SA and let you know how I go. I don't use Squawkbox so I'm not sure if I can satisfy your curiosity there but I can certainly confirm or deny the use of the OC unit with SA.

Cheers,

Ken.
