Corne,

Do you use Prosim737? I do so. In Prosim I go to encoders and assign them to the corresponding Pokeys ports.

Hi Corne.

Are you still interested, because you did not respond on my question what software you use?

However, I can tell you some more. I use Prosim737. And in the enclosed pictures you can see how these encoders are connected to the ports of Pokeys. They are connected in pairs.

If you have any questions left, please do not hesitate to ask me.

Best regards,
Ed

Hi Ed,

Thanks for your reply. I also use Prosim. Im going to try it again. Do you have these enconders?

Ha Corne

I have attached a blurry picture of the inside of my pedestal. However the encoder I use can be seen. The encoder you use seems to be different. Is this also from prosimparts?

Good luck,

Ed

Hi Ed,

It works now!! I have changed the Encoders ports and configured them as a pair and its flawless now! Thanks for the help.
Do you also have the 7segments connected to the Pokeys? Im thinking of buying the 7segments from Wendy for Land Alt, FLT ALT and the ELEC Panel but then i need 3 7segment boards for that and another Pokeys card. A lot of €€€ again

Kind regards,
Corné

Hi Corne,
Yes I use them too in my OVH. I will have a look too and will reply!

Ok Corne,

Below you can see what I use for these two segmentboards. But first my setup in Prosim737 to get these segments lighted up:

You can see that I use a second Pokeys board for these segments. This card is mounted in my OVH. The first card is mounted in my pedestal.

As you said; you have to use two Pokeys segmentboards:

About the Elec panel; I use the Matrix Orbitol display. In Prosim737 its already configured. Just plug in with the use of a serial adapter, assign it to a comport and it will work right away. I do not know if this is more or less expensive as using other possibilities. This is what I use:

It will need a Serial - USB convertor to connect it right into a usbport:

Nice weekend and good luck

thanks for the pictures I have just purchased and fitted the electric ovhd panel from wendy and got it working but can't get flt/land alt segment to work do you simply use encoder config page In prosim like your picture? or do I do anything else encoder is connected to grd and 2 ports on pokeys card. thanks.Norman

Hi Norman,
I have the Encoders working as Ed describes here above.
This is how i did it. Make sure your Encoders are connected to 2 following port numbers, for example port 11 and 12. Then go to your Pokeys card and set the Encoders port 11 and 12 to ''Inactive''. Then go to Prosim Encoders Tab and select the correct port numbers for ''FLT Alt in encoder'' and ''Land Alt in Encoder'' as shown in Ed's picture.
For me it worked perfect!
