Customer setup guide / DCS + HELIOS

Choose your setup path.

Both options run the same five instruments: four bound HELIOS gauges plus the separate DCS FA_18C_RWR viewport. Start with the profile for the quickest installation, or build the layout yourself for a custom monitor arrangement.

Use the ready-made profile

The 1024 × 768 layout, five instrument positions, 15 bindings, RWR viewport, and required DCS interfaces are already included. Reset the two monitor canvases to your PC and complete the one-time DCS setup.
