Will start the extended version of RSC firmware that will support the "sub-master" board, which will have mainly the same I/O features as master bo..
About the creator
Всем привет, это Владимир, я электронщик/программист (на пенсии), давно занимаюсь разработкой своего интерфейса управления домашним кокпитом для любителей авиа симуляторов. Кто-то из вас знает меня по моему давнему проекту панели Baron-58.
Система включает в себя оптимизированную прошивку RSC для Arduino Mega2560, которая позволяет подключать и сконфигурировать более 500 переключателей, кнопок, около 1000 светодиодов, десятки дисплеев и стрелочных приборов и работает с плагином SimVimX для X-Plane (подробности см. в блоге Романа ( автора SimVimX).
================================================================
ENG
Hello everyone, this is Vlad, a retired electronics engineer/programmer, I have been developing a home cockpit control interface for aviation enthusiasts. Some of you know me from my old Baron58 project, or as users of the XPData, ArdSim/X interfaces, which have now grown into a powerful, easy-to-use RealSimControl system, that works with SimVimX plugin for X-Plane (see details on Roman's SimVimX blog ).
This system includes highly optimized RSC firmware for the Atmega2560 (a single Arduino Mega2560) that allows you to connect and configure more than 500 switches, buttons, about 1000 LEDs, tens of displays and gauges.
-------------------------------------------------------------
An important part of the system is the Configurator with 3000+ predefined parameters database, which can be used to assign all needed control element for any aircraft cockpit:
1. The generic section includes separate maps for all aircraft systems such as flight controls, autopilot, radio, fuel, electrical, etc:
2. The aircraft section, where you can assign all controls for the specific real plane model:
3. The Converter - a tool for “remapping” predefined RSC keywords to custom aircraft models in case some of the model's functions do not work with the default keywords.

MET function (electric trim)
At last I have reworked the Electric trim and made it to work in the hardware cockpit correctly (I hope), solving the problem with the virtual trim interfered with the real trim wheel in AP mode.
Now when you use the ET switch on the yoke it's directly controls the trim with rotating wheel (that is a real input now, not simply "dummy" rotation) :
Read the page Electric Trim implementation.

IRS
New custom function for the IRS display has been added to the SimVimX plugin (in v 1.0.84), and I have added 2 new parameters to the Convfigurator, now you can assign it (as "IRS_Disp_Lat" and "IRS_Disp_Long" keywords) for the left and right part. The information displayed will be correctly changed depending on the mode switch state (including test mode).
ИНС (инерциальная навигационная система)
Новая функция для IRS дисплея была добавлена в плагин SimVimX (в версии 1.0.84), я добавил 2 соответствующих параметра в конфигуратор, теперь вы можете назначить IRS дисплей (параметры «IRS_Disp_Lat» и «IRS_Disp_Long») для левой и правой части дисплея. Отображаемая информация будет меняться в зависимости от состояния переключателя режимов (включая тестовый режим).

Parameter database/keywords:
Now about 300 default parameters for switches in the RSC database use the same keyword for the switch and the corresponding LED, which can also be reassigned as custom in the converter.

Configurator:
I have extended the configurator in terms of more flexible structure of aircraft maps. Take a look at the B738 mapping, which I am currently completing, as an example. I will also continue to add mappings, at least for those aircraft that have conversion files available for public download.
Laminar B738 (Zibo):
The built-in Laminar B738 Zibo conversion has been renewed. Now all MCP displays as well as overhead displays (Landing ALT / Flt ALT) are working properly, maintaining test mode - when you activate the light test switch, all displays flash with 8888 pattern, respectively for each display format. The same is done for the default Laminar B738.

Other Conversions:
As I have bought several plane models (including the X-Craft Embraer family, Toliss A321, Morava, Twin Otter, etc...) I will work on the conversions for these models, all them will be available for download and probably later will be built-in into SimVimX database by default.
Currently, I'm preparing my full conversion for the Toliss A321 model, with correct and tested data conversion accordingly with the assignment map.

The changes briefly described above are made in accordance with the updated SimVimX plugin, please read the update log on the SimVimX website or Roman's Boosty page.
