A320 ACP IO Card?

[turbovela]

Hi,

I was wondering what are you guys using for the ACP panel? How necessary is it to have the ACP up and running with the software, besides of course realism?
I have been thinking of wiring the ACP for the sim, and have been trying to find the best solution for the interface of all those pots. it seems like most cards for pots have no more than 8 inputs, which is not enough for the panel itself, so any recommendations would be appreciated.

I just connected the most important 8 pots to a small Leo Bodnar card. VHF1,VHF2,VHF3,HF1,VOR1,VOR2,MKR,ILS,
Look at this:http://www.leobodnar.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=94&products_id=204

If you want to connect all you need then two cards per panel.

The ACP can be interfaced with Vatsim or IVAO for realistic simulation ops with ATC. You can also use it to tune into ILS, and other land markers which is helpful for navigation.

I have a video of the ACP functioning with Vatsim as an example over here - https://soarbywire.com/2017/12/06/audio-control-panel-pinouts/

I was wondering what pots are people using for the ACP? I’ve found these so far, not sure if they would fit tho. https://www.ebay.com/itm/402209796308Would I be able to get away with just using buttons for selecting and not using pots for the volume control? Is there a way to control the volume without a pot? ThanksJose
