horus-DCS Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 I can't see anything to be connected to that 6 pin round port for now. Can we use it for some DIY peripherals?

Sokol1_br Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 This is for connect other VKB device - to be developed, I guess, e.g. their TECS throttle. You can't plug pot and switches there, VKB bus code is proprietary, not an analog or serial (Shift Register) code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope they would have a separate connector for the Throttle, if they utilized plugging it into the Black Box, would the limitation of axis and buttons come into play?

Abburo Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 That will be used to link multiple blackbox units together. The throttle unit will have multiple extensions so that these units will be linked and connected to one single USB port on the PC. These ports are definitely not to be used with other 3rd party boards.

TECS is an standalone controller, but VKB bus (in theory) allow plug then and stick, pedal in one Black Box. An optional feature. In the past this was used in Mambas allowing plug in their base Logitech G-940 throttle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
