Lighting panel knobs
-
Cockpit switches are executed by callbacks which are either bound to keystrokes or DX Inputs. So it depends on the Software that handles your hardware input if and how you could handle a certain poti threshold to execute to appropriate decrease increase callback

Ok. I use a Pokeys 57U. Do you believe i can handle them?
-
don’t know the answer but, if you’re building a physical cockpit, does it really matter if the call backs are sent to BMS?
I just have mine wired up to the lights in my pit, I don’t care if they light up in the 3D pit, which I don’t use anyway.Marvin might best answer, as he just finished up his pit. or should I say masterpiece.
-
That’s a good point. Tbh I can leave them unwired since i didn’t light up my panels. Just curious on how to let them work. Thankyou for your tip!
-
I used pots with ON/OFF button and wired the button of the pot, that way I can handle them now and I can the day these become real analogue heads in the BMS UI
-
Another knob i’d like to know how it works is the AIR COND switch. Is it also a pot with ON/OFF switch?
-
The air source knob is a 4 position rotary switch. In BMS I never tried to rotate past the NORM position, so I can’t tell if the other positions are implemented [emoji1].
The TEMP knob is a (2 way) potentiometer with switch position in the middle. Not implemented in BMS though.
Like your progress in the cockpit build [emoji106], looks good!

Thank you for info! So i have to search a 2 way pot with middle switch position for air temp. I know this is not implemented and i don’t know if in any future it will and how mutch important it will be for simulation purpose. For Air Source it is full implemented as far as i know.
And thank you for you kind words for my cockpit. Here’s a pic of Right Console progress
I have to cut right edges when i’ll finish the right most part of the console.

Good luck with that! I gave up looking. I will either hack one, or use one with a middle detent and some logic…

As i understood correctly the switch position is in the middle so you can move the pot clockwise and counterclockwise over the switch spot. I have pots with switch but you can move them only clockwise starting from off switch position.

Correct. I have one where the switch is activated by a cam made from FR4. I"ll try to make a new cam so it activates the switch in the middle of the range…
