1. Installation of Hardware Interface Host

The complete installation procedure is handled by standard Windows Installer. There is no specific option to choose during the installation. Everything is done in an easy automated way. Once Installed, there is some setting which needs to be reviewed.

2. Hardware Interface Host Configuration

To enable communication between Profiler and FSL Hardware Interface, please make sure the IP addresses are set correctly. 

The Simulator IP is the IP of the machine where the simulator runs. If this is the same PC, then the default local host IP address can be left unchanged. But if the simulation runs on the remote PC, then you need to change it accordingly.

The same way Profiler URI needs to be set.

3. Hardware Interface Host Component Licenses

Once we have basic settings done, the details for licences should be provided. For each supported SKALARKI hardware module, different license is needed. Without the valid license, the hardware will not work. All the licenses are available from FSL website.

4. Hardware Interface Host Component Configuration

In the Component configuration, there is some more hardware specific setting. Please review them as well to match your hardware configuration.

All the controls, such as TQ Levers, Flaps, Spoiler need to be calibrated in the Hardware Interface application. You will not be able to use them without the calibration. The best option is to do it right after the new devices are installed.
