Assuming you have allowed TelemFFB to install the export script for you, Check the DCS logs to see if there is anything causing the script to fail.

It’s possible there’s a conflict with something else in your setup which is causing it to fail (and therefore not send any telemetry)

Did TelemFFB automatically install the export script? (It should prompt you if it can’t find what it needs setup in the right locations when it starts).

Also, just for completeness of information…., DCS will not send any telemetry unless you load into a flight. It does not send anything while you are in the menu.

As a test, you can rename your current 'saved games' folder as a backup and then start DCS. It will create a new default saved games directory (which you can later delete and rename the original back).

After you have done this, start TelemFFB and it will install its export script into the new testing saved games directory.

Then test and see if the telemetry is working. If it does, then there is some conflict with one of the other dcs mods you are loading. There are several in your scripts folder I am not familiar with so I can't say how they may conflict or not.

mechsicko•1/23/24, 1:54 AM

New questions: I couldn't get my fan to turn on from either socket when in the debug menu. I tested for voltage there with them on there and got 19.8vdc, which is what my psu is putting out. Aren't those supposed to be 12v?

Also, has there been any progress on being able to set a curve for our fans? Would be nice feature if it ever happens

hariskut•1/23/24, 3:27 AM

@walmis I found that the maximum current the motor reaches on the software is about 25A. At this point, if multiplied by the voltage of 24V, it results in a power of 600W, which far exceeds the rated power of the PSU. So, I am a bit confused. Is the 25A displayed in the software the actual current?

Hhariskut @walmis I found that the maximum current the motor reaches on the software is ab...

walmis•1/23/24, 5:13 AM

No that's the current inside the motor windings, the current drawn from the supply is named 'Ibus'

mechsicko•1/23/24, 7:25 PM

Any idea why I can't get the fan to come on? I'm using the 'test fans' function in debug. To rule out variables I bench tested a new fan and it works fine but when plugged into the socket no go. I'm only using 1 fan, is that a problem?

walmis•1/23/24, 7:37 PM

Can you measure the fan port when you cold power-on the board? If it has voltage that would indicate the transistor is busted (failed short)

mechsicko•1/23/24, 7:45 PM

By cold power on do you mean connect the psu w/out the usb?

walmis•1/23/24, 7:54 PM

I mean power+usb, but without enabling the fans via software

mechsicko•1/23/24, 7:59 PM

No voltage when fans aren't on in software. Once on in configurator it goes up to psu voltage. Not sure if it means anything but when I turn it back off it took around 1 minute to creep back to zero

walmis•1/23/24, 8:02 PM

That's strange - can you try powering the board and fans from 12V?

mechsicko•1/23/24, 8:53 PM

Hooked my benchtop psu to it, set to 12v same result regarding fan voltage following psu. To that end I twiddled the dial on my psu and watched the voltage on the fans go up/down with it. Turned off and same slow countdown to zero

As to my fans not running in the first place I've solved that, the prefab pigtail leads I bought were wired reverse from Rhino board. Swapped crimp pin locations now both sockets turn on/off as they're supposed to, but until the voltage thing is solved don't want magic smoke to come out these fans so not using them

mechsicko•1/23/24, 9:32 PM

Great.. turning my benchtop psu up to running voltage I made it to 18v before the board beeped, usb lights went out/disconnected. Disconnected everything but now when I plug in usb nothing happens except the main chip gets hot.

Nothing looks out of place on the board under magnification. When I plug in its psu the motors light up but not the board.

Number481OP•1/24/24, 7:09 PM

your rhino is connected fine (as indicated by the firmware version in the lower right). MSFS is connected fine (as indicated by the telemetry).. there is an error condition (red x).. suggest you look at the log per the hover-over tooltip and the documentation

But... the reason it's not working is %99.999 because you are in the H160 and have not configured your force trim button in settings

Number481OP•1/24/24, 7:11 PM

your log will most likely be spamming:

Number481OP•1/24/24, 7:33 PM

follow the green boxes in the screenshot I just posted above in your TelemFFB settings. Configure the button you want to use for force trim and it will start working. The entirety of the ACFS autopilot implementation in TelemFFB for the HPG helicopters is dependant on force trim and axis sending being enabled in TelemFFB.

Since it sounds like this is new to you, also be aware that you will need to unbind your joystick axes in MSFS, otherwise it will fight with the axis information being sent by TelemFFB.
