HARDWARE ISSUES
What does Multi-monitor capability mean?
Although not a requirement to run ELITE, the multi monitor
capability allows for setting up a sep a rate in struc tor’s
station on an additional mon i tor at tached to the one
computer equipped with two video cards. The use of the
second monitor allows the ELITE program to display the
Map, Weather, and Control pages on one screen, while the
other screen is dedicated to the instrument panel. By doing
this, it allows an instructor to monitor a persons fl ight path,
give “radar” vectors, invoke failures, and change weather
all without stopping and interrupting the student’s fl ight.
What fl ight control devices (sticks/yokes/rud ders) are
compatible with ELITE?
Just about any stick, yoke, or rudder pedals that are
recognized by the operating system will be compatible
with the ELITE program. ELITE uses Direct Input from
the Win dows operating system to interface with con trols
plugged into the IBM gameport or IBM USB ports.
Can I use the ELITE digital fl ight consoles, avionics
pan els, and throttle quadrants with other fl ight sims?
The avionics panels and digital fl ight consoles operate
with the ELITE software and Microsoft FS2002, FS2004
Flight Simulator.
If using Microsoft FS2002 and FS2004 additional third
party software is needed. The throttle quadrants may
operate with a few other programs, if those pro grams can
interface with a device using an EPIC card.
