Connecting FltAlt and LandAlt encoders.[SOLVED]

Hi Roar,

I'm working on my overhead panel and have a question regarding the FltAlt and LandAlt encoders.

I will order an encoder card and found the following on the Opencockpits site:

Encoders card.

Reads the signal from up to 4 encoders (the standard two out of phase signals type).
Is connected to the Master card inputs (2 inputs required per encoder).


If I look to the script I only found 2 inputs and if I read correct one for FltAlt and one LandAlt

Var 0190, name rF_Alt, Link IOCARD_ENCODER, Device 30, Input 126, Aceleration 3, Type 2


Var 0191, name rL_Alt, Link IOCARD_ENCODER, Device 30, Input 128, Aceleration 3, Type 2

Is this correct or do I miss 2 additional inputs?

Thanks

Best regards

Remco

There is 2 inputs per encoder.

Var 0190, name rF_Alt, Link IOCARD_ENCODER, Device 30, Input 126, Aceleration 3, Type 2
Input 127 is also used, but not shown in script line


Var 0191, name rL_Alt, Link IOCARD_ENCODER, Device 30, Input 128, Aceleration 3, Type 2
Input 129 is also used, but not shown in script line

Encoders can be connected directly to a MASTER card.
