This will enable the Kneeboard in the A-10C.


***************************************
All tests are made in DCS World 1.2.4
**************************************


Installation:
-------------

1. First we have to 'tell' the A-10C module that the Kneeboard exists,so:

Copy the content of the "KNEEBOARD_MOD_for_A-10C" folder into the same folder of your DCS World install and allow to overwrite.
Example path:
H:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\

***************************************

2. Now we have to "Teach" the A-10C Sim module new Key-commands for the Kneeboard

------
A)

This will keep all 'joystick' files untouched and you only have to reset your Keyboard to Default,
but you can only control the kneeboard via the keyboard.

Select
OPTIONS > CONTROLS > A-10C Sim > Than Highlight the keyboard row >
Select "LOAD PROFILE" > Navigate to ...\DCS World\Mods\aircrafts\A-10C\Input\A-10C\keyboard and select the 'default.lua'
> Click OK

Now you have a Kneeboard category in your keyboard controls.

Please have a look at the "A-10C and Ka-50 Kneebord Keys.jpg" for reference.

And here is a video that shows above steps : http://youtu.be/MnMTd_rx3-Y

------
B)

To 'teach' every controller that you have attached the new Kneeboard category , you will have to edit your input files.

And use Notepad++ when you edit the scripts! And: before you edit: Make a Backup, make a Backup and make a Backup! - OK ?!

Navigate to C:\Users\>your user name<\Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input\A-10C\ add to every file you find in the "joystick"
Folder this Block directly after the "keyCommands = {" line:

{down = 3001, cockpit_device_id = 74, value_down = 1, name = "Kneeboard Next Page", category = "Kneeboard"},
{down = iCommandPlaneShowKneeboard, name = "Kneeboard ON/OFF", category = "Kneeboard"},
{down = 3002, cockpit_device_id = 74, value_down = 1, name = "Kneeboard Previous Page", category = "Kneeboard"},
{down = 3003, cockpit_device_id = 74, value_down = 1, name = "Kneeboard current position mark point", category = "Kneeboard"},
{down = iCommandPlaneShowKneeboard, up = iCommandPlaneShowKneeboard, value_down = 1, value_up = -1, name = "Kneeboard glance view", category = "Kneeboard"},


Please see the "Controller Profile edit.jpg"

Do it the same with the file in the "Keyboard" folder if you don't have done option "A)" 


Now you can assign your own button presses for each controller in the Kneeboard category while you have kept you own inputs intact.
