History

nirenjan b6ebdef7ef Handle time out of range in libx52_set_clock Prior to this change, the assumption was that localtime/gmtime would never fail, regardless of the time value provided to it. However, testing on an Ubuntu 20.04 machine revealed that the representable range of time_t was about 56 bits, values that exceed a 56 bit representation would cause localtime/gmtime to return a NULL pointer. This change replaces the use of localtime/gmtime with their corresponding thread-safe variants, and checks the return value against NULL. If it matches a NULL value, then it will return an error and not update the clocks.		2020-06-04 15:34:03 -07:00

X52 Pro MFD library

This is a library which communicates using libusb-1.0 with the Saitek X52 Pro HOTAS. The library provides several functions to control the LEDs and MFD of the above HOTAS.

Supported functions

Set the LED state of all LEDs
Write text to each of the MFD lines
Set the date/time on the MFD
Make the clutch and hat LEDs blink
Display the "SHIFT" indicator in the MFD

Note that when writing text to the MFD, the line length is limited to 16 characters. While you can pass a longer string, the library will only consider the first 16 characters for writing to the display.
