How is your trim assigned? If its on an axis, check the calibration and your calibration slope setting, and adjust as needed. You can also activate logging for axes controls (if assigned to an axis) or to events, if using inc/dec controls, to see what is being sent to the FS - best to do this with the console open so you can see what is happening in rea-time.

Offset Mapping for PMDG 777X.pdf

Still a bit strange - not sure why you are still getting the DevCom thread termination messages... And looks like the 'Extras' logging is not logging the thread info....I thought I had already added that to FSUIPC6, but maybe its only in FSUIPC7. I'll check and add it to FSUIPC6. Helps a lot for this type of thing as there are various threads interacting with lua / devcomms. Once thats done, I'll do a few more tests here on killing/restarting luas that use coms, but it will probably take a while before I get time for this.... John

That activates an hvar - you can also do that via a simple macro file: and then assign your button/key to the hvar. But as I said earlier, to use hvars you need to make sure it is in the A320.hvar file (or add it and perform a WASM-> Reload) that is located in the FSUIPC WASM module folder.

Its the same as it previously was (i.e. in FSUIPC4/5). When I originally did the update, there was no structure packing specified so I updated to 1 byte packing. However, in a later iteration I reverted back to 4 byte packing. Ok, corrected. Yes, due to the 4-byte packing. I am still waiting someone to verify this is correct by checking the data for COMM_ReceiverSwitches[0] at offset 6C5A. If that has the correct data, everything else should be ok.

FSUIPC WASM module + client-side API + lvar/hvar discussion topic
John Dowson replied to John Dowson's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
Those lvars are Momentary - they should/probably perform some action and then revert back to its original value. Could that be what is happening? -
So I did, sorry about that - here is the correct/latest version: Offset Mapping for PMDG 777X.pdf

What is you TimeForLuaClosing set to? I'm not sure where the 'Poll loop stopped' message comes from (can I see your latest version of the lua script please?) I ask because there doesn't seem to be much of delay between these messages: Maybe there is another section of code that is killing in this situation and i need to add the delay there, I'll check,. But, please activate Extras logging before you show me any more log files. And if your script is changing, its helpful to see that.

We cannot possibly provide bespoke support for everyone using FSUIPC to configure their controls. That is why we provide User manuals - lots of them. Please read the documentation and try to configure for yourself. If you have any issues, search the support forum first (as most questions have already been asked), but if you still can't find a solution to your issue, then post, providing any required information, such as what you are trying to achieve (including a relevant topic title for your problem), what the problem is, and attached associated files, such as your settings (your FSUIPC6.ini file) and your log (FSUIPC6.log file).

Found another issue - FIRE_EngineHandleIlluminated and FIRE_APUHandleIsUnlocked are arrays of 2 bools not just single bools. Updated document attached, and the offset to check for COMM_ReceiverSwitches[0] is 0x6C5A. Offset Mapping for PMDG 777X.pdf

MSFS2020 + FSUICP7 + PILOT2ATC CONNECT
John Dowson replied to Focus42's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
It is MSFS that starts FSUIPC7, not the other way around. Try starting FSUIPC7 manually (by double clicking the FSUIPC7.exe) to see if it runs. If so, show me your InstallFSUIPC7.log file. If it doesn't run, tell me what error you see. Its also in the system tray, not the task bar. When FSUIPC7 starts it displays a splash screen. If you see that, it should be in your system tray, if not, it has not been started. -
Sorry, thats also wrong! Attached is hopefully correct, and COMM_ReceiverSwitches[0] should be at offset 0x6C58. Offset Mapping for PMDG 777X.pdf

This was reported as working a couple of weeks ago, after the last but one update. I haven't tried it with the latest version but should be ok - why don't you just try it (and report back!).
-
It shouldn't hang P3D. But you have errors in the script you should address first: Also, as I said, could you please activate logging for 'Extras' for such issues, as the thread id is useful. If you correct those errors and still have the same problem, show me the log again (with the Extras logging enabled) as well as the script.

Issue with crash when installation
John Dowson replied to Darren1346's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
Looks like OneDrive is screwing things up - this is strange: InstallDocumentsLocation=C:\Users\k7890\OneDrive\??\FSUIPC6 What is the '??'? You can try disabling OneDrive and re-install. Also you have installed FSUIPC in your Documents folder: Better to install in a directory outside of your Documents folder, somewhere like C:\FSUIPC6 or C:\P3Dv5 Add-ons\FSUIPC6. Re-run the installer (it will uninstall your current installation) and choose a different folder. If all else fails, I could help you to manually switch the the add-on.xml method, but there is not a problem if you just continue to use the DLL.xml method to auto-start FSUIPC6. If its installed via the add-on.xml method, you should be prompted to enable the first time you run P3D after installation, or ir can be activate/deactivated from the Options ->Add-ons menu. FSUIPC6 also appears there, but only when installed via the add-on.xml method. For issues getting GSX installed and running, you will need there support. I don't have GSX. -

That is your FSUIPC6.log file (which shows its running ok), not your InstallFSUIPC6.log file. -

What is add-on manager? It will be in your installation folder, and also in the folder where you ran the installer. -

John Dowson replied to Darren1346's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
You don't need it - if that is not selected, the DLL.xml method will be used to auto-start FSUIPC. However, the add-on.xml method is preferable. Could you show me your iInstallFSUIPC6.log file please. -
Issue with crash when installation
John Dowson replied to Darren1346's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
Ok. Try running the installer again, and this time uncheck 'add-on.xml' to see if that helps. If it still crashes, try again but also disable FSUIPC Documents. Are you installing for P3Dv4, P3Dv5, or both? -
Generic issue with a joystick, want to test whether FSUIPC can help me
John Dowson replied to Redjef's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
There is a time-limited license valid until 5th May that you can use here: This is normal in prop planes - see https://www.boldmethod.com/learn-to-fly/aerodynamics/why-you-need-right-rudder-on-takeoff-to-stay-on-the-centerline/. You could try logging axis events to see if any controls are being sent to the sim. You can also try assigning your ailerons in FSUIPC (direct to calibration) and calibrate there with a decent null zone. -

John Dowson replied to Darren1346's topic in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
When did it crash? What did you see? Is there an InstallFSUIPC6.log file? if so, please show it to me. Also, check the windows event viewer and show me the crash log.
