MCPEX1 CONNECTION BOARD
|
| |
MCPEX1 board allows you to define and use the Input/Output capability of MCP737.
WARNING! the use of Input/Output without suitable knowledge could lead to damage of the
MCP737 and also may involve risk of electrical shock, if you don't fully know what and how
to connect, don't do it; warranty does not cover damages due to incorrect wiring of any
external device. If you have any doubt contact us at
support@cpflight.com
MCPEX1 command:
|
64 digital inputs:
(4 more on Game-port)
|
Each channel disposes of a dedicated double terminal block, you can wire toggle switches,
momentary pushbuttons or anything capable to make electrical contact; rotary switches may also
be used keeping more input channels.
|
|
10 digital outputs:
|
Each channel disposes of a dedicated three pole terminal block with an exchange relay
contact to control external supplied devices. You may use digital outputs to command external
indicator lights (for instance gear position lights) or any two state device
WARNING! maximum applicable voltage is 24 Volts (ac or dc), each relay can drive maximum 2
Ampere current load.
|
6 analog inputs:
(4 more on Game-port)
|
Each channel disposes of a dedicated three pole terminal block to wire potentiometers
to control any analog variables (for instance separate throttles for engines). You can use
round shaft or slide potentiometers; multi-turn potentiometers can also be used (for instance
to control pitch trim). Linear response potentiometers with 10 to 100 KOhms value shall be used.
|
|
2 analog outputs:
|
We also arranged two 0 to 5Vdc analog outputs; they may be assigned to airplane attitude
or any similar variables. Use of analog outputs require external electronic circuits and it's
dedicated to expert users; do not attempt to use analog output directly, contact
support@cpflight.com
if you need to use analog outputs.
