View Full Version : Displaying Heading Info on LED

I am trying to conceptually put together a MCP panel using Phidgets.

Using FS2Phidget, I can scale the value in FS, but it only works up until 179 degrees and then from 180 on it goes negative.

Being new to Phidgets, when I go to display the 0-359 value on my MCP, how am I going to convert the -180-179 to 0-360 (I know that is not technically correct scale-wise, but hopefully you know what I mean . . . ). Is there a scale in the LED module and does the LED module work with FS2Phidget?

Thanks for any insight you can provide.

David

David,

I have built a solution into version 4.0 to
normalize angle values into the 0-360 range.

If you would like a pre-release version of 4.0 to evaluate send email to
alan@coconutair.

Regards,
Alan.
