FSSymphony Version 2.0 released

[Delphi]

Dear cockpitbuilders,
today I released version 2.0. The program acts as smart interface between the Flight Simulator, FSUIPC and the PoKeys56E ® Ethernet interface. FSSymphony V2.0 is compatible to the following flight simulators: FS2004, FSX, Prepar3D ® V1.4 and V2.1. FSSymphony V2.0 supports both cockpit builders with no programming experience just by let them select the required function from a drop-down list, as well as user who want to get deeper in functionality. They can define own functions, including manipulating offsets and doing logical comparison.

The program can also act as bridge to the SIOC programming language. Each of the PoKeys56E ® digital inputs, outputs, analog inputs, and encoders can be assigned to a SIOC variable. This gives cockpit builders a maximum of flexibility and the opportunity to interface SIOC scripts to the PoKeys56E ® interface.

Furthermore the PoExtBus for up to 80 additional output ports is supported and I2C bus has been introduced for 12 additional servo outputs.

The combination of these features gives cockpit builders a maximum of flexibility and the opportunity to interface none standard FS controls and own SIOC scripts to the PoKeys56E® interface. It also opens the access to the offsets of Project Magenta or IFly, to name just two.

A variety of examples for user defined functions and comprehensive description are included in the download package.

FSSymphony V2.0 is still published as freeware and my contribution to the community.

For those who are interesed, the documentation is available here:

Hi Ruediger

Thank you for your hard work and dedication.
Will read the pdf carefully.

Ruediger and I worked closely on some of the new features which is the "PoExtBus" and "Expert mode" of the new features which gives you unlimited options with just one card. I was the R&D in the hardware section of this. Ruediger has done a great job with the programming side and enabling so many servo's if your the DIY gauge builder and many more.

The hardware I created for the PoExtBus functions can operate relays, solenoids, and other medium current or high-voltage loads 50V max and of course what ever LED's etc you want. With the "Expert Mode" you can now assign any FSUIPC offset to trigger an event on the both the standard side of the software and Expert mode.

I have to apologise that I should have had a manual created or integrated to Ruediger's for the expansion card that is now being being produced for the sim world as I type, but I have had other clients that I was working for during the last few months, as this was done in my spare time.

Big thanks to Ruediger for his time in creating such a great piece of software. Also a thanks goes out to Boris from Pokeys.

That sounds great. Any idea when the card will be available and how much It will be?
