However here I could need some more information to make life easier. It seems that only strings are sent back and forth an I assume that these are related to the enums that can be found in the SDK. With some reverse engineering I can already handle the USB part of the protocol, but on the network side I would like to implement the network protocol that is used between the Profiler and the SDK Diagnostic. My suggestion here would be a program running on a Raspberry Pi under linx that acts as a network server and sends and receives data via USB.
FSUIPC X PLANE DRIVER
The USB connection to the hardware is non-standard and there is no driver for linux available.At the moment there are two problems that needs to be solved: But anyway, I am currently working on a way to integrate the Overhead Panel into X-Plane. You might remember, that we already bought your hardware and you promised to send a set of springs for the switch guards. But this should only be a matter of time, as the pop-up displays are already implemented as OpenGL windows and to separate them you just need to transmit the necessary data via network.īTW: There is a certified A320 Flight Training Device based on X-Plane and the QPAC A320 model running the Technical University Dresden: The only thing that is missing for a cockpit builder and what is still on the ToDo list is the possibility have the displays as separate programs connecting to the main simulation via network.
FSUIPC X PLANE PDF
If you like I could send you PDF files where fore every accessible dial or button the corresponding data or command refence is documented. All these variables are accessible via a very flexible plugin interface.
accessible variables) that are available additionally to the general X-Plane variables. I attached a file with the data references (i.e. The support for the different subsystems is grouped into ATA chapter and you can find data and command references to following chapters: ATA21 Air Conditioning / Pressurization / Ventilation ATA22 Auto Flight ATA23 Communications ATA24 Electrical ATA26 Fire Protection ATA27 Flight Controls ATA28 Fuel ATA29 Hydraulic ATA30 Ice and Rain Protection ATA31 Indicating / Recording Systems ATA32 Landing Gear ATA33 Lights ATA34 Navigation ATA35 Oxygen ATA36 Pneumatic ATA49 APU ATA52 Doors ATA70 Power Plant As this plugin started not as game product but as engineering tool for actual aircraft development it is far more simulated inside the model than actually needed to fly around. As far as I know all advanced Airbus models available for X-Plane are based on the Airbus FBW plugin made by QPAC. As a user of the A320 in a professional environment for some years now I can tell you that interfacing is FAR more easy than with any other simulation software I have seen so far.
