FSLED , BCD switch and Conrad rotaryquestions
 

Hi,

When I flash my PIC for the ledboard with the newest fsbus version,
and read the PIC there are several 3FFF at the end of the file.

Is this normal?


What's a bcd switch??? Do you have a Conrad number for them?:confused:


Can I connect the conrad rotarys (ddm427) direct to the Key pcb or do I need a redec with the new FSbus version?


Kind regards Jan.

Hi Jan,

yes it is normal - the LED software seems to be smaller than the rest.

A bcd switch is something like the switch in the yoke of the B737 right hand side - you can "dial" differnt numbers - as far as i know it is not used in the B737 - except in the yoke .... maybe for the xpdr...

You cannot connect the Conrad rotarys directly - you need the REDEC interface.
The KNITTER switches can be used without interface though.
