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.
You can find some examples of connection and use of I/O on "MCP737 Operation Manual" at download page.
