A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hello JL,
Thank you for your attention and congratulations for your Best Work !!!!!!
I have some question, becouse I'm a beginner .......
I'm from Japan and some years ago I bought some products from Germany Company ( Cockpitsonic ) but after many problems I abandoned my A320 project and change for B737NG.
But my first project ( A320 ) is a dream and now I decided to return for my first project and decided sale my B737NG.
I have some parts from Cockpitsonic ( FCU / EFIS / RADIO / AUTOBRAKES ) all P&P but I do not know if it would be compatible with A320 FMGS.
I have some parts from opencockpit and MCDU from FDS.
Please, would be possible to inform me if the products I mentioned is compatible or not with A320 FMGS ???
Many thanks, I'm waiting your reply.
Best Regards and have a nice day,

Hello,
Right now CockpitSonic is not compatible. BUT, I have all the necessary documentation to make the drivers. If you have some time to wait for then test the driver, I will give it a go.
As for FDS hardware and opencockpit, these are compatible (but need configuration of course).
Best regards
JL

Hi JL, i bought an ECAM panel plug&play from cockpitsonic, so if you want i can help you to test drivers ;)
-
Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hi to both of you,
Actually I had already started on the ECAM, and it should be more or less working already.
Please have a try:
http://www.jeehell.org/EHIDmodule.dll (you need the cockpitsonic's EHID drivers installed with a valid licence...)
Regards,
JL

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hi JL, where can i find this drivers ?

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
The MCDU EHID driver is only for MCDU i think.
Maybe i have to install A320 driver (but i don't read EHID)....
I've found this site
Uwe Schneider GmbH | EHID
Are this ?

Antonio

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Your link is correct. I have no idea if you will have to pay for a licence or not, you should contact Mathias from cockpitsonic for more information I think...
JL
-
Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Ok JL, i will contact Mathias and i will report here his response
Regards
-
Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Mathias of Cockpitsonic, tell me to check at Uwe Schneider GmbH | EHID
I sent an email to uweschneider to request information about license of A320 EHID.
Regards
Antonio

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hi, uweschneider give a free license for the drivers. So i can test ECAM....JL , where do i put your dll ?
-
Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hi
you need to put it in hardware modules folder. I suggest you install the EHID drivers on main FS computer. If you don't have the hardware modules folder,reinstall FMGS software and check FSUIPC support option.
Regards,
JL

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hi JL, I have done just as well, thanks
At the beginning of my tests, the panel works well, each button changes to a page on the SD, but the two "DUS" are not recognized by the software.
After I turned everything on overhead, I start to have "exception in EHIDModule.dll" whenever my action on the panel changes the page on SD.
Example: When I turn the APU should display the page on the SD but I get this error and the panel stops working (when I press the buttons nothing happens).
Any idea?
Regards
Antonio

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hi
Ok I will look at that.
THe DUs dimmers are not yet implemented, it was only a test to see if I could use the EHID drivers...
Regards,
JL

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Good, i'm sure your software will works fine also with EHID ;)
Have a good job guy!

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hi JL, yesterday i done a complete (little) flight from Naples to Rome FCO and i didn't have problems with ECAM Panel.
Maybe the first time, i done many tests and the drivers gone in error.
So give me other time to test it , but if you want also implement Dus dimmers i will happy :D
Regards
Antonio

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hi
I worked a little bit on the driver. I added the DUs dimmer pots.
Also, for those with a FCU, I started adding it, but only the inputs work (no LEDs or 7segments displays yet).

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Great!
I will try it this evening! :)

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hi JL, i've just installed the new module but nothing is changed even if i can see log in the Hardware monitor
EHID:OBJ ID: 0x30205201
EHID:OBJ Value: 0x3800
EHID:OBJ ID: 0x30205201
EHID:OBJ Value: 0x3100
EHID:OBJ ID: 0x30205201
EHID:OBJ Value: 0x2E00
I tried to setup into Configuration, in the Dus relative section but i can't.
All pages are switched correctly.
Finally : can you manage also backlight?

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hi
There is no need to configure those dimmers in FMGS config. They should work directly without calibration. However there must be NO OTHER axis assigned to those 2 dimmers in FMGS config. Did you try the mini and maxi positions?
Regarding the backlight, I need to have a look. However I think there is no possibility to light the ECAM keys (the green stripes which should be on each key).

Hi JL, i don't have any axis assigned to 2 dimmers.
I tried from 0 to max and also OFF but nothing happened... maybe i had to restart my pc ?

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
No it should not be necessary (but you can try it cannot hurt).

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Ok please try this one now:
http://www.jeehell.org/EHIDmodule.dll
If anyone here has a cockpitsonic FCU (who knows...) the LEDs and displays should work now...

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hi Photographerjm,
for now included are only ECAM and FCU (not EFIS). I'm working on the EFIS, then it will be autobrakes and radios.
Regards,
JL

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
I added both EFIS and Glare Wings, autobrake panel, and gear lever panel.

All buttons works very fine, but dus dimmers don't :(
If i move the Dus dimmers, i can read values in the Hardware monitor but nothing happens in the ecam/sd windows

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hi
can you give some examples of the value it shows (like min, max and a few positions in between)?
I'll look at it next week, I'll leave for the weekend.

Hi JL, take a look at here
One question : Have you also programmed the switch ON/OFF of those dimmers ?
Each DUs have a position to OFF (all to left) then when you go ON you can move dimmer.
Can this the problem? Maybe you have first put ON and then the values will be applied.
Regards and thanks in advance

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
If you still get those messages, then I do not know why but I think this is not the correct DLL that you use???
Try that one please:
http://www.jeehell.org/EHIDmodule2.dll
The ON/OFF position is not the issue I think.
JL

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Ok i try it .
Anyway , I've put your last DLL (this version) in FMGS Hardware directory overwriting the old one.
Thanks

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hi
Any news? Just one thing, did you remove the old version before trying the version 2?

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hello JL, the new driver works very well!
Great job guy!
The two dus dimmers work well, even the on / off switch.
The only "bug" is that the maximum intensity is reached just after the middle of the step to the right.
Also the lights are all on, though, as you had anticipated, you do not manage the status of all buttons that are always turned on.
But great job, really!

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with Cockpitsonic FCU/EFIS/AUTOBRAKES/ RADIO.......
Hi
Ok great news!
I will need one thing for the dimmers: can you turn on the logging feature in hardware connect (general one and switches logging as well), and tell me what the value is when the dimmer is in MAX position?
Regards
JL
