How to setup your iFlag in SImHub

FIRST - CONNECTING YOUR SIMDASH DDU

Connect your DDU

Connect the Device
Plug your device into any available USB port. You will hear the standard Windows USB connection chime.

Open SimHub

Launch SimHub and select the Arduino tab from the left-hand menu panel, then navigate to My Hardware tab at the top of the screen.

Allow Time to Sync

Wait a few seconds for detection. Initial synchronization typically takes around 5 seconds, but it can take up to 30 seconds if you are using a new USB port or adding a new device.

VERIFYING CONNECTION IN SIMHUB

Verify connection

Verify Status
The scanning status should change from a red "Not Connected" message to a green "Connected" message, and your device name will appear on screen.

Troubleshooting Tips

  • Port Compatibility: The device is fully compatible with both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports.
  • Connection Issues: If the status continues to display "Not Connected," wait an additional 30 seconds or try plugging the device into a different USB port.
  • Multiple Arduino Devices: If you have more than one Arduino based device or iFlag's connected, ensure you have Multiple Arduinos selected in the My Hardware tab.

Import the Profile
Click on Profiles Manager, select Import, and choose the specific iFlag LED profile you need. There will be a profile for a single iFlag, and another for a dual iFlag setup.

Activate the Layout

Once imported, remember to select and load your new profile from the dropdown menu and apply the changes.


Ensure that all of this is done under the RGB LEDs tab and NOT the RGB Matrix tab.

Your SimDash Pro should activate and show an idle animation when correctly setup.

ADDING A VOCORE DISPLAY IN SIMHUB

Add a VoCore Display

  • Navigate to the 'Devices' tab on the left hand side of SimHub's home page.
  • Click on 'Add new device'
  • In the search bar type in 'VoCore', you will see 'Generic VoCore screen'. Select this and press 'OK'.
  • You will now see a VoCore device has been added.
    On the left-side tab named Dash Studio, you will see all of the pre-installed dashboards supplied with SimHub. Click on a dashboard, look under Show on USB displays, and select your VoCore display. The dashboard will now appear on your screen.
  • Alternatively, you can apply a dashboard within the VoCore screen section of the Devices tab by using the Main Dashboard drop-down menu.

configuring multiple displays

MULTIPLE VOCORE DISPLAYS

  • You can add multiple VoCore devices and run them completely independently of one another. This allows you to display separate dashboards on each VoCore screen and customize individual settings, such as orientation.
  • Each VoCore display has a unique serial number detected by SimHub. If your dashboards and settings apply to the wrong screen upon restarting, you can fix this in the Devices tab. Under your VoCore device settings, check the box for Connect to specific device and use the drop-down menu to select the exact display you want to target. SimHub will then remember this assignment, even if you change USB ports, hubs, or cables.
