prosimparts radio modules

[cuevision]

Hi Corne and Norman,
Norman is right and it seems you find out yourself Corne. I have forgotten to mention the numerical setup in Prosim737 for the displays. From the segment boards, you have a connector with 4 wires Brown/Red/Orange/Yellow (See ROY on image, pins 9/10/11 and 23/24/25.) These wires are to be connected too to the Pokeys card as can be seen below.

Hi you all

I see that these posts about prosim parts are more or less old. I like to show you the end result of my pedestal with these parts and The CPflight parts. Pictures are not that good. Sorry

Hi eveyobe

I also have the radio panels fron prosim parts, and using the opencockpits electronics. How did someone solve the problem that only one decimal point glows. You have to be able to multiplex the dot LEDs so only one will glow. For that you need an electronic circuit. That is my problem, I don't know how.

Hope that someone could help me, thank you very much.

Cheers Norbert

Hi Norbert,

I also use the OC for connection to Prosim737. However I do not get your point exactly. All I can tell about this, that it aint possible to get that dot on another place as it is. This gave me a problem at the ADF radios for which I need the decimal two places before the last one, like this 000.00.

I have asked Danhiel of that company. He told me that I was right about the decimal of the ADF and sent me 4 new displays on which the decimal was 000.00 instead of 0000.0.

Is this what you mean?

Good luck
Ed

Hi ed

Thank you very much for your quick response. I was one of the first one who bought the radios from him. My displays have all the decimal points working so when I connect power to one all come one. Guess Danhiel has blown the decimal points which are not needed. This was also my plan. The is a person that got it working that only one decimal point comes on. Will ask Dabbuel to sell me few so I can try blown the decimals that are not needed.

cheers Norbert

Ok Norbert

I understand you. This sucks, I can imagine. This means that these segments are not ok. As you say, only one of them has to work on THE CORRECT place. A slight problem of these displays: that the dots can not be reached in changing a wire. This is pre-made by the developer. There is just ONE pin that connects to ONE dot. All other dots can not be reached seperately. So you have to replace them all. I am sure that Danhiel will sent you new ones, without a problem.

Ed

HI corne,
thanks for reply I have done this today but they don't work still! I'm not sure if it may be the encoders themselves? its a poldragonet ovhd not sure which make of encoder is supplied going to order a cts 288 encoder as I know prosim recognises them.

Hi Norman,

didnt you read my post? I also use Poldragonet. Their encoders are working fine for me. So perhaps you could try my advise. The only thing I can think of is you might have wired it wrong.

Hi Ed,
yes I read your post but realise now my mistake! I have not configured ports 9,10.11, 23,24,25 in the numerical cnfig file! silly me? thanks Ed.

This makes sense now. As I use the same encoders, it should work for you too

Good luck,
Ed
