IOCP

[aufa35]

Hi
I am new in building cockpits and i want to build MD82 (maddog)
I tried to understand software things (i studied tutorials on opencockpit), but now i am so confused of all terms and theory. At first, i have big problem with IOCP. How does it work? How can I connect computers and get IOCP server working? Please, if someone can help me (or where i can get useful informations for me).
Thank
PS: I don't know where this theme belong, please don't delete it.

Hi,
Welcome to the club.

Why do you need an IOCP server?
Basic information about SIOC can be found here: SIOC (IOCP)

Hello and welcome.
MD-80 is a little harder to build than an 737, because there is not yet built a 100% finished home sim cockpit.
The project is far from plug and play, but is a fun challenging hobby.
We become more and more people that are starting to build the cockpit of this amazing airplane and You are welcome on our website where you can read more about the project, IOCP script, LUA and more: http://www.md80project.dk

Thank
So if i have just one computer, i need install SIOC (I have done it), FSUIPC (also), and program sioc.ssi? Then i will connect USBexpansion card, and master, start simulator and sioc.exe and it will work

and program sioc.ssi?

Yes, a .ssi file is the compiled version of the SIOC script for your cockpit. You have to program and compile that script first before you can run sioc.exe with that .ssi file ...

Ok. I have one more question. If i will make new value in config_sioc it open new parameter window. Please if you can describe me settings in this window (what i can set there), or if you know some tutorial where is it describe. At first, where i set the input number (where i set which expansion card, which master card, which input/output) and where i set the function of this var (if it will be no smoking on, or apu start or outside light on.....)
THANK!

Nico have a very fine toturial:

I have used this when the script was new to me.
Take the time to play with in and outputs and make the script working, so you understand the logic.
Search for others' script, and copy from it, change the script and see what happens and ajust it to fit your cockpit.

I'd recommend not to use the GUI interface of config_sioc but to use the NotePad editor (or any text editor) and write the script. The Help menu item of config sioc will give you the syntax and semantics of the SIOC language. Examples of SIOC scripts can be found at my site

And can you describe me please, how to program servo motors via USB servo card? Because overhead in MD80 has many gauges, and i would like to make it via servo motors. I hope, i little bit understand SIOC programming (thank for your help), but how to servo motors?
THANK

First things first... Try to write a SIOC script that drives leds and responds to switches first.
