Problems with encoders and switches.

#1 Post by Deltasierra »

Hi to all,

After I've upgraded to AM 4.1 for my desktop MacOS version and connected an Airplay for RPI, I am not more able to use all my rotative encoders and switches that are on my C172 selfbuilted cockpit.
I've checked all wiring connections on my RPI GPIO and they seems good, further I've checked my log.txt and no errors appearing.
Last time that I've used my cockpit everything was ok! :oops:
Could someone help me and sending any suggestions ? :?:

Thanks!

Same issue as in the other topic I suppose: Did you flash your Arduino's?

No Ralph, it’s a different problem from the last post. Now after this new release of AirManager my C172 panel is correctly “hooked” with X-Plane but all encoders and switches are out of services!
I haven’t reflashed my Raspberry card, do you think that this could be a potential problem ?
Tomorrow I’ll try also to check with a multimeter Raspberry GPIO status.

Ah you have them hooked directly to the Pi?
There seems to be a bug in the Pi hardware part. There will be a fix soon.

In this case I'll waiting your fix!
My Raspberry Pi is a 3B+, but with last Sim Innovations software release there wasn't problem.
Just for check, do you think that could be possible download and run previous release (i.e. v3.7) ?

That will not work with Air Manager 4. We can probably bring out an update this week.
