FlightSim Labs Support In this tutorial we will explain how to install SkalarkiIO Profiler to work with FlightSIm Labs Airbus line. Supported models are A319, A320, A321. |
SkalarkiIO Profiler 5.1 Installation for FlightSim Labs support
SkalarkiIO Profiler is an Application to allow communication between SKALARKI hardware and aircraft or simulation software. All SKALARKI hardware can be used ONLY via SkalarkiIO Profiler and dedicated digitally signed USB driver. Registering SkalarkiIO Profiler is mandatory and it is free of charge for Home Users. Any commercial aplication is allowed only after purchasing related Licence. All licences are available in our Online Shop here.

When installation is completed press "Finish" button.
There is no need to add or edit any files manually. Non of the files needs to be moved or copied to p3d folders.
Configuration
There is only minimal configuration needed in SkalarkiIO Profiler Settings. If you have statick IP address for your PC, then please change default one to the static. If you using DHCP then leave default settings.
If you using DESKTOPLine TQ Box, then in SDK Calibration tab you need to calibrate your hardware. Make sure TQ is connected and USB driver Installed. Then move Lever to the posiiotn and click on corresponding button to save lever value. Repeat same procedure for each lever and each detent in TQ.
FlightSim Labs
There is nothing special needed during FSL aircraft installation. Complete communication between SkalarkiIO Profiler and FSL aircraft is ahndled by dedicated software provided by FlightSim labs. Hardware Interface Host can be downloaded from here.
1. Installation of Hardware Interface Host
Complete installation procedure is handled by standard Windows Installer. There is no specific option to choose during installation. All is done in easy automated way. Once Installed there is some settiongs which needs to be reviewed.
2. Hardware Interface Host Configuration
To enable communication between Profielr and FSL Hardware Interface, please make sure IP addressess are set correctly.
Simulator IP it he IP of machine where simulator is running. If this is the same PC then default local host IP address can be left unchanged. But if simulation is running on 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 details for licences should be provided. For eaxch supported SKALARKI hardware module, different license is needed. Without valid license hardware will not work. All licenses are available from FSL website.
4. Hardware Interface Host Component Configuration
In Component configuration, there is some more hardware specific setting. Please review them as well to match your hardware configuration.
All controls like TQ Levers, Flaps, Spoiler needs to be calibrated in Hardware Interface application. You will not be able to use them without calibration. The best is to do it right after new devices are installed.
