I don't think a normalized voltage makes any sense. It should be real voltage in volts. Then the particular instruments should check for acceptable input voltage. I must be missing some point, what's wrong with this approach? -- Csaba/Jester ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
