IT IS ALIVE!! Thanks for your help!

Thank you very much for your help, I will try this. Chris

Ok, the display is working with KSP, at launch I get the correct AP an PE. And thats all... The three LEDS stop working and a new LCD-measure shows up at the display after ca. 20 seconds, than its not updated anymore. I put the library for the display at the beginning of the Demo. Then in setup: lcd.init(); lcd.backlight(); than in loop: lcd.setCursor(0,0); lcd.print((long)VData.AP); lcd.setCursor(0,1); lcd.print((long)VData.PE); I played around with the config of the plugin, but no success.

Thanks for the hints, the display is OK and working, but is not showing anything in KSP. The examples of working Kerbal Controll Units are usually very complex (for me) and don´t help me with my simple display. Time will tell, I keep trying Chris

Hi Zitronen, I should give some more information... I use your great KSPserialIO, KSP 1.7.3 and arduino uno. Loading your example KSPIOdemo17 the LEDs are working and I can controll SAS und RCS via external switches. The Display is working using the arduino library examples. I have put this at the beginning of KSPIOdemo: #include <Wire.h> #include <LiquidCrystal_I2C.h> LiquidCrystal_I2C lcd(0x27,20,4); I found this code in this forum and put it into Utilities just after void Indicators() [ lcd.begin(16, 2); // Print a message to the LCD. lcd.setCursor(0,0); lcd.print((long)VData.AP); lcd.setCursor(0,1); lcd.print((long)VData.PE); } void InitTxPackets() { HPacket.id = 0; CPacket.id = 101; } Of course, it doesnt work, just because I am only trying without knowing what I really do ;).. I think I will get a starterKit and begin learning some basics. Chris

Hi, I followed this thread and used the examplecode, everything is fine (simple LEDs, SAS and RCS controll), but I just don´t manage it to get my I2C- Display to work. I am using LiquidCrystal.h and want to get my AP and PE displayed. It is a 16x2 Display. Someone her who could offer me an example. To be honest, I have no clue of coding oder Arduino, but I try my best....

Hello to everybody! I bought KSP years ago and stopped during the training missions. As far as I remember - I have really bad eyes - ther was a problem with the fontsize and I could hardly read the instructions and menus. Now I started all over and managed to fix it (in the options...? bigger monitor?). Until now in careermode I successfully reached Eve and landed - poor Valentina will spend a lot of time there... Concerning my Person, I am Christoph from Germany, 44 years old and happily married. Before KSP I was just a casual gamer. For me it´s a perfect combination of simulation, "adventure", SF and brainfood. I am usually not active in forums but I learned a lot from this place, and that´s why I am here.... Hopefully I can help in the future to answer some questions from noobs like me... I am not convinced by online translation tools , so please ignore my english with a smile, I try my best Chris
