Class OpenSkyhawk::OutputBase

ClassList > OpenSkyhawk > OutputBase

Abstract base for all DCS-driven output objects. More...

  • #include <PanelGroup.h>

Inherited by the following classes: OpenSkyhawk::DrumDisplay, OpenSkyhawk::LED, OpenSkyhawk::NeedleGauge

Public Functions

Type Name
virtual void configure ()
Configure hardware pins for this output.
OutputBase * next () const
Next output in the list; nullptr at end.
virtual void onControlPacket (uint16_t controlId, uint16_t value) = 0
Called for every non-null ControlPacket in a CTRL_BCAST frame.
virtual void update ()
Called every PanelGroup::loop() iteration.

Public Static Functions

Type Name
OutputBase * head ()
Head of the self-registered linked list.

Protected Functions

Type Name
OutputBase ()
Registers this instance into the linked list.

Detailed Description

Declare concrete output objects at global scope; the constructor self-registers into a static linked list. PanelGroup::setup() calls configure() after chip initialisation. PanelGroup::loop() calls onControlPacket() for every non-null slot in each received CTRL_BCAST frame and calls update() every iteration.

Public Functions Documentation

function configure

Configure hardware pins for this output. 

inline virtual void OpenSkyhawk::OutputBase::configure ()

Called by PanelGroup::setup() after chip.init() completes. Call _pin.configureAsOutput() here. Default is a no-op.

function next

Next output in the list; nullptr at end. 

OutputBase * OpenSkyhawk::OutputBase::next () const

function onControlPacket

Called for every non-null ControlPacket in a CTRL_BCAST frame. 

virtual void OpenSkyhawk::OutputBase::onControlPacket (
    uint16_t controlId,
    uint16_t value
) = 0

Parameters:

  • controlId DCS-BIOS output address from the received packet.
  • value 16-bit value from DCS-BIOS.

function update

Called every PanelGroup::loop() iteration.

inline virtual void OpenSkyhawk::OutputBase::update ()

Default is a no-op. Override for outputs that need continuous work between CAN frames (stepper motor step generation, PWM updates).

Public Static Functions Documentation

function head

Head of the self-registered linked list. 

static OutputBase * OpenSkyhawk::OutputBase::head ()

Protected Functions Documentation
