Below are some frequently asked questions about SimStack. If you have another question, please contact us and we’ll get back to you.
Can I run more than one SimStack in my sim?
Yes — you can run as many SimStacks as you like in your simulator. In fact, that’s exactly how SimStack is designed to operate.
Can Simulator Solutions supply a wiring diagram for the parts I bought?
Unfortunately not — the manuals and wiring diagrams are commercially sensitive information available only from the manufacturer. Older maintenance manuals can sometimes be found online, and we can often reverse-engineer parts to make them work.
Can you build my sim for me?
Yes. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.
Do you have SimStack boards in stock?
Yes, we hold all SimStack products in stock. Please contact us with your requirements.
How do I configure or program a SimStack?
