NAME
pfuOpenFlybox, pfuReadFlybox, pfuGetFlybox, pfuGetFlyboxActive,
pfuInitFlybox - Routines to read the BG Systems flybox.
FUNCTION SPECIFICATION
#include <Performer/pfutil.h>
int pfuOpenFlybox(char *port);
int pfuReadFlybox(int *dioval, float *inbuf);
int pfuGetFlybox(float *analog, int *but);
int pfuGetFlyboxActive(void);
int pfuInitFlybox(void);
DESCRIPTION
These routines provide a simple interface to the BG Systems flybox but do
not provide a flight model based on the flybox.
pfuOpenFlybox opens the flybox port specified by port.
pfuReadFlybox reads the values of the flybox digital inputs into dioval
and stores the eight analog input values into inbuf.
pfuGetFlybox reads the values of the flybox analog inputs into analog
after setting them to zero if their absolute values are very small. It
also stores the flybox digital inputs into but.
pfuGetFlyboxActive returns whether the flybox is currently active.
pfuInitFlybox initializes the flybox. It uses pfuOpenFlybox and
pfuGetFlybox.
