Thanks John Followed your instructions and now works great Thanks for your time and knowhow. I started Flight Sim about 20 years ago and using the mouse didn't appeal so building switch panels became part of the hobby, but it was only with FSUIPC with yourself and Pete (hope he is keeping well) that i could get them to work. Kind Regards Brian

The slow ones now at least working. incrementing and decrementing by 1 yes they are. G18 (i.e. the fast/larger in/dec they increase & decrease by 40 So thats working but could you set the fast x 10 without going to much trouble. Brian

Good Morning John log files as requested log 1 is the log from first attempt. Looking at log file i didn't know LINDA was working in the back ground. Brian FSUIPC7.ini FSUIPC7.log FSUIPC71.log

Ok will get back to you tomorrow Brian

Thanks John Not working i'm afraid Button G18 on press the Degree jumps x 2 ie 170-172 on rotation in reverts to 1 at a time. The decrease button G17 doesn't work at all nor when G18 is held. Brian

Thanks John Yes i have 4 button boxes i had to change a faulty one and installed the BB 64 Please tidy up the PMDG presets The button press is G 18 Brian

The encoders just have one button in either direction ie rotate ccw button 17 cw button 16, Pressing the knob is button 18 Pressing the knob and rotating still only shows 17 & 16 The flight sim is MSFS 2024 PMDG 737 is the 2020 version , all the FSUIPC presets on my Home made panels work. FSUIPC7.ini

Thanks John for your time and effort in your reply but l,m afraid It still goes way over my head and wouldn’t know where to start. I have used the hdg fast and slow but that was because they were an option in the drop down list. Parameters offsets & script’s I’ve looked at the manual and examples but I just can’t grasp it and at 83 I think l,m past learnings. The one thing in my favour is I,m not pushed for time so moving just 1 degree isn’t the end of the world. Thanks again Brian.

After following this topic its still beyond me i think i need an Encoder Setup for Dummies. I have a leo Bodnar Encoder and have used preset PMDG B737 MCP FO CRS turn left decr. right for incr. that goes 1 degree at a time how can i make it go 10 degrees at a time. When i was Using LINDA there was an option to use the push button as a shift key for fast or slow. Is there a lua if so how do i get that to work. Brian

Just a thought, Leo Bodnar encoders have to be programmed to work properly.

Hi Sandy I use 2 single rotary encoders 1 for Nav 1 & 1 for Nav 2. Direct from Leo bodnar about £4.50 and the knobs are another £2.50. You also have a program to download to set the rotarys up. Cheers Brian

Using a bodnar board and rotary encoder i just use the FSUIPC button list, turn right for Nav 1 whole numbers inc.that cycles through 108-117, do the same for left turn fractions inc. then use the rotary push button to swap. And do the same for Nav 2. This works on all my aircraft including PMDG. Happy Xmas Brian
