Hello,

I am working on interfacing my weather radar panel with Prosim737. Prosim wants a value for the tilt between -15 and +15, of course the pot only gives 0 to 1024. I have used transform before but not to make a number negative.

Thanks,

Hi
I not test it myself.... But should no big Deal!

You need to know the Range of Poti .... MF Potis mostly are 0-1024 . HID are 0-64000 or so....
Best way is to Test this out...

Write with a Poti a MF Variable .... (INput Value=@) .... And Read this variable again with a Output Config.
Then you can turn (while in RUN mode) the Poti multiple Times to check where it starts and end.

Lets expect it goes from 0-1023 ..... So 1024 Values.... We need 30 Output Steps....
1024/30 = 34 means "@/34" occure in a Value 0-30
We finally need -15 to +15 So $-15 should do it. ( e.g. Full Left 0-15=-15 .... Middle 15-15= 0 ..... Full Right 30-15=15)


Combined "@/34-15" ( for the 1024 Situation)

May little adjustments are needed.... But it should work basically !
Good Luck !

I'm going to try this. Ive figured up the range I'm getting from FSUIPC logging. I figured it could be done but i wasn't sure how to write it.

I can't make it work, :/ I have the values on Flight Sim Value y Output Value from -15 to +15 but no change on the prosim pedestal, is there something I'm missing?

Thanks!
