Ouch! When I originally asked about " another joystick driver package", that would have included whatever that "configurator tool" is, and that I knew nothing about.
If that is appearing in the P3D addons menu, then it IS running, and probably has settings which need to be removed to avoid conflicts.
If you want to use FSUIPC for assignments and so on then really you'd be safer uninstalling that other joystick driver package.

Well, disabled whatever that was and job done. Works fine. Apologies for taking your time on this, I honestly didn't that was even installed.
Many thanks again for your help and your product from a long-time user.

Yeah, I had no idea it was even there to be honest. Let me uncheck it and give that a shot. If not I will see about removing it entirely. Sorry, didn't know it was even there. I've never installed software for either Honeycomb.

Within the sim itself, in the Addons section there is a "Alpha Flight Control Bridge Module", which is checked. So whatever it is, it's turned on. Maybe uncheck it and try?

Are you running any Honeycomb Bravo software (e.g. Configurator tool) by any chance?
The dropdown says Honeycomb -> AFC Yoke - Reload button bindings and a toggle to either show or hide button bindings.

Nope, nada, at least not to my knowledge. There are menu options for it in the Addons dropdown in P3D, but I've never opened nor configured either. Perhaps I should open and look at those.
And I set the pofile to the F22, and the same happens. In fact a lot more of it. I'm fairly certain my strobes are on...
And this Bravo works flawlessly in MSFS, so I don't believe it's the unit.

Okay. That confirms controllers are off in P3D. Can you go ahead and try the same profile with a different aircraft now, please.

Both of your logs attached are continuation logs. I need to see the full log, not a partial one. Could you please provide a full log. Also, please close down P3D/FSUIPC before you attach the log.
Here are both again, with the full log. I deleted the two meaningless assignments, which were probably from me trying to set the sim to do nothing when releasing the flap up lever and the flap down lever, which didn't make any difference and I subsequently deleted. That's probably what that was.
Thanks again!

Tried a few other things. Pete mentioned it is sometimes caused by another joystick driver package. I had Saitek throttle and yoke installed, which I don't use anymore. Uninstalled those. Then restarted the computer, didn't make a difference. Also tried assigning the master battery and master alternators to the Alpha in hopes it would unassign them from the gear and flap levers on the Bravo. No dice.
Here is the updated ini and log after uninstalling the Saitek drivers and assigning the alternator and batteries.

vJoy won't do anything by itself unless you have also assigned to the virtual buttons its using....show us you .ini and .log, with the advised logging activated, which should hopefully show what is happening.
Here are the files. Thanks gents!

You'll need to show us your settings (the FSUIPC6.INI file), and an FSUIPC6.log with both Event and Button logging enabled and you briefly operating those switches.
This sort of thing is nearly always due to multiple assignments, usually controllers not disabled in P3D, or another joystick driver package also installed.
Pete
I'll post those shortly. Could it be vJoy? That is installed, and to be honest I can't even remember why. It was installed for P3Dv4 a long time ago and is just "still there".
Edit: just remembered, I used vJoy to set up Realtrim in PD3. So in any event that can be removed, although I tend to doubt that it's the problem.

Hi fellas,
Using the latest full release of FSUIPC6, trying to map the landing gear and flap up/down switch on my Bravo (with the Alabeo Seminole). I set them both and they work just fine, save for the fact that in addition to moving the gear up and down, the landing gear switch simultaneously operates the right magneto on both the left and right engines and the flap switch turns the PFD and MFD of the G600 on and off. Up turns them both off, down turns them back on. I have the throttle, yoke, and rudder pedals all disabled in the sim.
So to be clear, when I put the gear leaver up, the gear goes up... and both right magnetos turn off. And when I put the gear back down the magnetos come back on. With the flaps, push the lever down, the flaps go down one notch, and the PFD/MFD turns off. Push the flap lever up, the flaps retract a notch, and the PFD/MFD turn back on.
Everything is set up through FSUIPC. Even though all of the controls are disabled in the sim settings, I checked anyway to see if there was a setting in the sim for magnetos on the Bravo, there is none. And it doesn't make sense to me how it could possibly be set within FSUIPC to do two things at once.
I have FSUIPC7 set up for MSFS, but it's obviously not running at the same time, nor is the gear switch or flap switch set to do anything in that other than perform their normal functions. And MSFS works just fine. So I don't think it can be some kind of weird conflict there.
Any thoughts?

As I explained in my earlier post, it depends on how your rotary functions - is it a one button or two button (each direction) type? Or is it phased? Use the appropriate method as advised, depending upon the type of your rotary.
If you want to use offset 0C4E, you need to assign to the Offset Word Increment/Decrement controls using that offset and an appropriate parameter, which is the amount to increment or decrement on each 'button press', so use 1 for the slow incr/decr, and maybe 10 or so for the fast inc/dec.
Fantastic, thank you, John. My apologies, I didn't quite understand what you meant earlier, but I do now. Will let you know how it goes!

If its a one button rotary, try the provided lua script, documented in the Lua Plug-ins document:
If its a two-button type, then you can assign the different buttons to different increments (using the offset incr/decr controls).
If its a phased rotary, then check the advanced user guide on how to handle.

Hi John,
I appreciate the feedback. I've tried the Rotary lua and it doesn't change the behavior of the dial. It's a twist knob that you can turn left or right to spin the OBS in either direction. For this could I use:
0C4E 2 NAV1 OBS setting (degrees, 0–359) Ok-SimC Ok-SimEThe question I have, is how I do make it turn one degree at a time when I turn it slowly, and increase the speed when I "spin" the knob quickly (basically get it to behave like a real OBS knob does)? How would I program that or which values would I use?
I very much appreciate your help, and your program! -
I'm not sure if this is a support issue, it's actually a question. First of all I've gotten rid of the 10-degree heading bug in MSFS thanks to FSUIPC, and for that I'm very grateful. Now, however, I sort of have the opposite problem. I have the Honeycomb Bravo and have the OBS DECR/INCR mapped, meaning I can just twist the DECR/INCR knob to change the OBS in the plane. But now with it going 1 degree at a time it takes all day to rotate any meaningful amount. Like if I want to change the OBS 90 degrees it takes, well, 90 clicks.
Is there a way to have it move 1 degree at a time when you turn it slowly, like it is doing, but make it move more/faster if you spin the knob on the Bravo? That's pretty much exactly how it works in the real airplane.
Thanks in advance for any help and apologies if this is in the wrong place.

I am tempted to update to the beta version, but having just gotten the program working with the lua files I'm hesitant to open up the proverbial can o' worms. Will updating to the b version of the beta file require remapping anything?

Hi all,
Somewhere in the forums I read that you have to have a flight started before you start making the assignments in FSUIPC, but now I can't find that post. Could someone please confirm if this is the case, and in which step of the process above this should be done? I followed the first post and was not able to get the magnetos assigned properly.
Many thanks!

Willco! Thanks John.
