HOW TO Configure the ICP Rev1 Panel

For ICP Rev1 Board description, options, and how to configure the expander address, see PSCockpit Quick Guide V.4 – ICP REV1 PCB. You can access the Quick Guide from Help/Quick Guide menu in the PSCockpit software.

Digital I/Os

To configure the PS Cockpit ICP Rev1 panel just select ICP Rev1 Board from the Expander pull down list in the IOLayout page of the PS Cockpit Software at the correct I2C channel and expander configured in your ICP Rev1 board (see PSCockpit Quick Guide V.4 – ICP Rev 1 PCB):



In case of there is some data already in the selected expander, the software will prompt you for continue:

The software will also prompt you to add the standard BMS commands for the ICP:


If you accept, the software will prompt you to search for your BMS .key file and will automatically search for the key strokes you have set in your .key file for the ICP:


If any of the commands hasn't been set you will see a warning indicating how many commands haven't been set and the Commands page of the PSCockpit software will appear:



Once the ICP panel is already configured you can modify the list of inputs/outputs as desire as well as the free I/O of the expander:



Be aware that once the configuration is saved, whenever you enter the IOLayout Page you won’t see “ICP Rev1 Board” label on the expander anymore but the 40 I/O label.

Analogue inputs

You have to repeat the process for the analogue inputs by selecting “ICP Analogue” in the I2C Main Channel:


The expander will be configured as shown:


Be aware that once the configuration is saved, whenever you enter the IOLayout Page you won’t see “ICP Analogue” label on the expander anymore but the Analogue label.

To use the analogue inputs inside the sim with the PS Cockpit Joystick refer to http://psfalcon.blogspot.com.es/2012/01/how-to-use-analog-inputs-with-ps.html
