Nico's Kaan NAV1 & Course example

Hi Samsail

Tanks for the code, it suizid be done with a single encoder. But at the moment my time is very limited.

Writing sioc is not that hard. I always said to myself i can't learn it. I spend lots of money on other elektronics because sioc is so hard. Than one week I said now you have to learn how. Took lots of examples made Lots of mistakes, but now i am ok with it. And there are lots of people out there that will help you have problems.

Don't give up have lots of fun here.

Cheers Norbert

That's already available at my website: SIOC code for ADF

Hi Nico

Will have a look at it later. Thanks

Cheers Norbert

Hi,
Here is my progress in SIOC code.

In the attached file “Radio NAV1 NAV2”
I wrote a script to control NAV1 And NAV2 Radio freq. using a single rotary encoder with push button for Hi and Low frequencies, plus two more push buttons, one to select NAV1 or NAV2 and one to Swap form standby mode to active mode.

I thank you Nico for your examples, these are a great help for me.

In the attached file “ Nico’s ADF1” I have try to modify your script for the ADF1 in case to use one rotary encoder with push a button, but it is not work.

Can you please Nico check this file for my mistakes?
I thank you in advance,
Yiannis

Here a version in which I've corrected your mistakes ... Also check the input number of your PushButton

I can’t find words to thank you for helping me with the Sioc scripts.

My ADF1 is operated now perfect.

My best regards

:D

Hi Yiannis,
It was my pleasure. I hope more people will see how easy and powerful SIOC is. :-)
Have Fun!
Nico

Hello fellow cockpit builders,
I am new to the hobby ... I just ordered a bunch of parts and I'll be putting together my own OC cards this week... yay! I'm building a LVLD 767 cockpit...
I have good experience in programming and working with hardware, and I have read the SIOC manuals and the bits of code that I have found online... still I am not following the programming language that well... for instance, the & sign is not talked about in the OC manual (or I in the manual I found) plus... how did you pickup this language? the code that was posted in this thread by Nico seemed simple, but I still couldn't follow... would it be possible if you explain a line by line for some of the more SIOC specific lines... I get the IF/ELSE parts :D and I'm shaky on the VAR parts, but totally confused on the CALL :roll: ...

By the way, great site Nico!

Hi,

Welcome on board!

The & sign is just a syntactical symbol (not an operator). It indicates the compiler that the identifier following is the name of a variable. It was introduced to make parsing of the text by the compiler simple. Of course there are more user friendly ways to work with variable names, but SIOC is a very simple language. Do not compare it with C++ or Java, or languages like that.

With the CALL command you call a subroutine variable.

Since you have good experience in programming, it should not be very difficult for you to learn SIOC. Just keep on studying the howto examples at my website and practice by writing small scripts.
And do note that SIOC is an 'event driven scripting language', not a procedural language with a begin and an end, see this example of flow of control.

Regards,
Nico
