Do I need to create all the operation panels for OnXDC by myself?
Thread Content
Many DCS systems have custom operation panels; there is no need for engineers to create their own onxdc operation panels when configuring them. Do you have to create such panels by yourself?
Onxdc also has predefined simulation joysticks, in many different types; the library can be opened during screen configuration to choose from, and all of them use defined macros. It can be modified according to one’s actual requirements, which is very convenient. It’s sufficient to create a template; when calling it, simply modify the parameters.
The few DCS systems I’ve worked with allow you to enter the Tag numbers directly at the operation station (which is equivalent to IO), and this enables you to access the control panel for monitoring and operation without any need for configuration. It seems that engineers at Xinhua find this process a bit tedious
It seems that the graphic configuration capabilities of Shanghai Xinhua are indeed not as good as those of other manufacturers; in this regard, LS SMARTPRO performs the best. This is probably because it uses CITECT, which provides powerful configuration functions, and the manufacturer already prepares various operation panels such as PID/SCS/operators for you
