The Main Window

  • Manage Database… — opens the device/instrument/input configuration window. See Adding a Device.
  • Reload Config from Database — pushes any database changes out to connected hardware without restarting SimLinkHub.
  • Refresh from Simulator — re-reads current sim values immediately, useful right after loading a flight.

Current aircraft​

Shows the aircraft SimLinkHub currently has loaded from MSFS — title, ATC type, model, and engine type. Some device behaviour (which SimVars are watched) can be aircraft-specific.

Connection status​

Two indicators:

  • Simulator — connected to MSFS 2024 via SimConnect.
  • CAN Bridge — the USB-CDC link to your CAN bus is open and healthy.

Both need to be green for hardware to actually sync with the sim.

Live device panels​

Each connected device gets its own live-updating panel in the main window — current frequencies for the PRD-225, current lever positions for the throttle quadrant, and so on — so you can see at a glance that everything's in sync without touching the hardware.
