1. Can my Yoke be mounted on the desktop?
   Visit the product page of your specific product to find a technical drawing showing the positions of any mounting holes.
   https://www.brunner-innovation.swiss/produkt-uebersicht/
   
2. Can I mount it inverted?
   No, the yoke handle cannot be mounted inverted, so your handle would be upside down.
   
3. Can I temporarily remove the Yoke handle to push the elevator rod through a cover?
   Yes, see instructions below.

Basically yes, you can exchange it with your own yoke handle. If you have the technical knowledge and the talent ;-).

CLS2Sim provides a few custom Datarefs to allow a very basic override of a few functions.

More sophisticated control requires use of the remote interface (TCP/UDP Network protocol, see here https://cls2sim.brunner-innovation.swiss/)

Abilities:

• Override when the hardware should activate its Autopilot mode (Stiff controls, moving to target pos).
• Override the Force scale factor, normally set by airspeed or static, with a custom value.
• Override how much the hydraulic has failed on the aircraft
• Enable/Disable rudder boost

Dataref: beh/autopilot_external_control

Datatype: Int

Dataref: beh/external_forcescalefactor_active

Datatype: Int

Dataref: beh/external_forcescalefactor_value

Datatype: Int[4], [0] = Pitch, [1] = Roll, [2] = Yaw, [3] = Collective

Backup

Perform the following steps for each Node ID of the device you want to back up:

Go to Custom Profiles and create a new Profile:

Enter a descriptive name that contains at least the Node ID. Copy the name into the clipboard, you'll need it later.

Check all objects.

Select the newly created custom profile, then click on the top left button to read all CANopen values from the device into the file.

The status bar at the bottom will show the reading progress.

Now click the Save button at the top.

Enter a descriptive name containing the Node ID (Paste the copied name for the profile) and save the file.

Restore

Perform the following steps for each Node ID of the device you want to restore:

Go to Custom Profiles and open an existing Profile. Select the ccp file you have backed up previously:

Select the newly loaded profile and Write it down to the device:

Store all written settings to the devices EEPROM:

Once you have restored settings for all Node IDs, power-cycle all devices.

For X-Plane only, CLS2Sim allows mapping buttons, analog inputs or axes to any X-Plane dataref or command.

You can create additional custom actions, or you may even override the default behavior of CLS2Sim!

Tip: To watch/edit Datarefs or trigger commands in X-Plane you may use an X-Plane plugin like this one: https://datareftool.com/

Config Files

Open the following folder:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Brunner Elektronik AG\CLS2Sim\Settings\CustomActions

It contains 2 files:

• In the file CustomActionsIDs.xml you may define custom digital or analog actions.
• In the file XPlaneCustomActionsConfig.xml you may change the existing actions or add custom actions.

How to define additional actions / override existing actions

Digital actions are triggered by buttons, analog actions can be trigged from analog inputs (eg. Rudder Pedal Brakes) or from axes (Joystick pitch axis).

You must define a custom action ID and name in CustomActionsIDs.xml for any additional action you wish to define.

• 12001 to 12999 is the valid ID range for custom digital actions.
• 13001 to 13999 is the valid ID range for custom analog actions.

The file XPlaneCustomActionsConfig.xml contains all definitions for X-Plane.

• You can add your own analog and digital actions.
• You can override the default actions.

To override the default actions, you need to know what ID corresponds to what action.

To get this information, start CLS2Sim.exe with the commandline argument -dumpactions

It will create a file in the same folder as CLS2Sim.exe named ACTION_IDS_DUMP.txt

There you can see that for example the ID 1 is the Elevator axis. Therefore changing the analog action definition for ID 1, you can make CLS2Sim write the elevator axis position to a custom dataref.

You can also create a new custom action. Define a custom ID and name in CustomActionsIDs.xml and then add a custom action definition to the end of XPlaneCustomActionsConfig.xml.

Here are the enum definitions for all the values, also the C# class definition behind the xml.

Important default actions to look at

The following default action will give an understanding how to use the system:

ACTION_AXIS_ELEVATOR (ID 1)

• Set the float dataref sim/joystick/yoke_pitch_ratio to the axis value, scaled to an int range of -1 to 1 (the value itself stays as float, only the range borders are int)
• Set the int dataref sim/operation/override/override_joystick_pitch to the static int value 1
• Set the int dataref sim/joystick/has_certified_pitch to the static int value 1

ACTION_AXIS_COLLECTIVE (ID 4)

• Set index 0 of the float array dataref sim/cockpit2/engine/actuators/prop_pitch_deg to the axis value, scaled to a range defined by the two datarefs sim/aircraft/prop/acf_min_pitch and sim/aircraft/prop/acf_max_pitch which are also arrays, also reading index 0.

ACTION_DIGITAL_CONTACT_ATC (ID 1120)

• Trigger and hold the command sim/operation/contact_atc (trigger it and release it only, when the input button goes low.)

ACTION_DIGITAL_CUT_ENGINE_1 (ID 9999)

• Set dataref sim/cockpit/engine/ignition_on to zero when button changes from released to pressed (rising flank only, no continous write)

Forces are too high for device.

Lower values for force profile or force scale factor.

Ensure that it is free of obstructions.

Further, follow these steps:

Reproduce problem

Close CLS2Sim

Send email to support@brunner-innovation.swiss or open a support ticket containing the following information: C:\Program Files (x86)\Brunner Elektronik AG\CLS2Sim\Logs\logfile.log Serial numbers CLS2Sim version (see main window title bar) Precise description of problem and how to reproduce it.

Did you wire your devices correctly? See the galery below for wiring instructions for you particular use case. If you only have one device, you may connected it to the computer with USB.

WARNING
Please be advised, the RJ45 sockets on our Brunner devices are for CAN bus.
They are not compatible with your normal LAN Ethernet network.
Do not connect your devices CAN ports to your normal network,
or you might damage or destroy your Brunner device!

Only our Brunner Gateways allow for Ethernet connections. You will need them if you want to connect more than 2 Brunner devices.

Did you configure CLS2Sim to connect to your first Brunner device via USB, or to your E2CAN Gateway via network?

1. Do you have CLS2Sim installed?
   You can download it from our website:
   https://www.brunner-innovation.swiss/software-download-page/
   
2. Do you have the CLS2Sim plugin for your specific supported simulation installed?
   You can find the plugin installer here:
   C:\Program Files (x86)\Brunner Elektronik AG\CLS2Sim\Simulator plugin installers
   
3. 3Did you choose the correct simulation in CLS2Sim settings?
   
   
4. Is CLS2Sim connected to both Hardware and Simulation? Are all you axes ready?
   

Most aircraft models for Simulators use some standard conventions for receiving input, as designed by the simulators themselves.

In X-Plane that would be the Dataref "sim/joystick/yoke_pitch_ratio"

Or in MSFS X / MSFS 2020 / P3D it would be the SimConnect variable "ELEVATOR POSITION"

But some aircraft models inject their own custom logic writing to these variables, competing with CLS2Sim for control.

To circumvent this problem, CLS2Sim offers the option to inject inputs by simulating a USB HID Gamepad using the third-party software vJoy.

Motorized axes supported vJoy

CLS2Sim can only route these specific axes to vJoy:

• Pitch/Elevator
• Roll/Aileron
• Yaw/Rudder
• Collective

Installing vJoy

First, vJoy must be installed. Only the specific vJoy installer shipped with CLS2Sim can be used.

It can be found in the installation directory of CLS2Sim:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Brunner Elektronik AG\CLS2Sim\Virtual joystick driver\vJoySetup.exe"

The installer may hang when installing the driver. Give it 2 minutes, then force close the installer.

Enabling suppressed actions in CLS2Sim

After starting CLS2Sim, open the Settings dialog. You can only open it if your are DISCONNECTED from any hardware.

Now in the settings enable the feature "Suppressed Actions" as well as "Force map vJoy axes...".

Now after connecting CLS2SIm to your Brunner yokes/joysticks/rudders, go to the profile manager.

You will see a new entry "Suppressed Actions" in the "General" tab.

Open it up by clicking the configure button.

You are now presented with two lists.

Move any axis you want to suppress to the right side. In the example screenshot all available motorized axes have been suppressed.

Close the "Configure Suppressed Actions" dialog and click the OK button in the profile manager.

Close and restart CLS2Sim and do the same as well for your simulation software if it was running.

After starting CLS2Sim and connecting it to the hardware, it will now reroute the principal axes to vJoy.

You can now map these axes like any standard USB axis in your simulation.

Install the newest CLS2Sim

Install at least CLS2Sim 5.7.37 (released 19.12.2024) from the downloads page.

Install the MSFS plugin

Run the following installer:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Brunner Elektronik AG\CLS2Sim\Simulator plugin installers\CLS2Sim MSFS 2020+2024 plugin Installer.exe"

Confirm that the plugin has installed the correct files and that MSFS is loading them

To confirm that the plugin is installed correctly you will need the tool TCPView, (or you can use netstat from admin cmd if your familiar with that) to confirm that your Flight Simulator opens the TCP port 15050.

You can download it from here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/tcpview

Start Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 / 2024, wait until you're in the main menu:

Start the downloaded TCPView and enter 15050 into the search field.

You should see the following entry for Flight Simulator 2024, or a similar one pointing to Flight Simulator 2020:

If that is not the case, your SimConnect.xml file is not configured correctly.

Configure CLS2SIm correctly

Make sure CLS2Sim is configured to use MSFS 2020/2024 and to use the IP address 127.0.0.1

Detailed connection information for the tech-savy

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 / 2024 uses a file called SimConnect.xml to define open network connections where third-party applications can connect.

See here for detailed description: https://docs.flightsimulator.com/html/Programming_Tools/SimConnect/SimConnect_XML_Definition.htm

CLS2Sim replaces that file with the one containing (among other parts) the following entry:

<SimConnect.Comm>
    <Descr>CLS2Sim IP4 port</Descr>
    <Protocol>IPv4</Protocol>
    <Scope>global</Scope>
    <Port>15050</Port>
    <MaxClients>64</MaxClients>
    <MaxRecvSize>41088</MaxRecvSize>
</SimConnect.Comm>

CLS2Sim also has a local file at

C:\Program Files (x86)\Brunner Elektronik AG\CLS2Sim\SimConnect.cfg

The file contains connection information to connect the the same port in the same computer as described in the XML file above:

[SimConnect]
Protocol=IPv4
Address=127.0.0.1
Port=15050

These two need to match, and the chosen port needs to be free on the system so MSFS can grab it.

You can override the SimConnect.cfg contents and make the file write protected to create your own connection settings!

You will need at least CLS2Sim 5.7.37! Earlier versions will crash when the SimConnect.cfg file is not writable.

For example, people using SimRacingStudio have overwritten the SimConnect.cfg file to use the same port as SimRacingStudio, allowing both programs to connect simultaneously to MSFS:

[SimConnect]
Protocol=IPv4
Address=127.0.0.1
Port=33445

Mapping Axes and buttons

Do NOT map any principal axes in MSFS! These are Pitch/Roll/Yaw/Collective. You can map the brake axes of CLS-E Rudder pedals.

However you need to disable these axes in CLS2im. Go to Analog inputs and remove the mappings to Brake left/right.

Do not map any CLS-E devices that show up and neither map vJoy axes!

The only exception that doesn't break your system any worse is

All of the axes get injected directly into MSFS via the SimConnect API and if you map them on the USB devices, you are going to have strange side effects. If you need to do so regardless, you need to disable the default axis mapping in CLS2Sim.

See this FAQ on how to supress (disable) axes in CLS2Sim:

Trustmaster and Virpel grips are supported.

X-Plane | Prepar3d | MS FS 2020 | FSX | DCS | ProSim and as well Direct X interface is supported.

Because only CLS2SIM offers the required interface from our hardware to common simulation software.

Why do we need to do this?

X-Plane does not account for controls where changing the trim position moves the control. (Think feathered joystick, the force center position never moves regardless what trim position you have in X-Plane). To still allow for trimming, X-Plane adds an offset to the control surfaces when you trim.

That means concretely: You use a brunner yoke/joystick and you keep the pitch axis perfectly still. Then you trim the pitch axis, while still keeping the pitch axis at the same position. The expected behavior would be that the pitch control surface does not change, only the force acting on your yoke/joystick. But what happens is, that X-Plane adds an offset to your control surface, changing your plane's attitude. So the maneuver of moving your pitch axis to a good position, then neutralizing the forces, does not work.

This fix makes this behavior possible.

Important things to consider

• You must have "Don't set pos in AP mode" DISABLED in your CLS2Sim profile.
• Use CLS2Sim version 5.7.34 or newer. Versions before this one will never achieve perfect trim and any Autopilot will always oscillate in pitch.

When to use this

If you want to have realistic trim, i.e. perform the maneuver of moving your pitch axis to a good position, then neutralizing the forces without moving the pitch axis itself.

Setup steps:

Open Planemaker and open the aircraft you want to edit. (Select the .acf file in the plane folder)

Then open top menu > Standard > Control Geometry

Open the Trim/Speed tab and set pitch and roll fractions of max deflection to zero:

Go to top menu > File Save As to save the plane as a new file in the same folder as the original acf file:

In CLS2Sim, perform the following settings for your profile:

Disable "Don't set pos in AP mode" in "Autopilot" tab.

Enable anti-oscillation and disable "Use hardware trim" in "Trim" tab.
