Dear Pete, ah, that is good to hear. For sure I can wait for next release. Thank you for support. Regards Uli

Dear Pete, with your DLL 4.012 the offsets 3101 and 3103 works well (using the cockpit hardware, too). Thank you. :D While 'playing' with the switches I observe a kind of initialisation problem with the offset 3104 (fuel pump switch), which is difficult for me to explain. 1) I (cold-)start FSX reloading a flight which was saved with 'fuel pump = off'. While FSX is still loading I activate my hardware cockpit which starts cyclic writing '1' to 3104 (on connection). While the FSX finish loading the fuel pump switch (shown on FSX screen) is still in 'off' position (even I cyclic write '1'). If I write '0' once I observe that the switch make a fast step to 'on' position and immediately return to 'off' position. Further on it work well. 2) So I try to repeat that using FS-Interrogate, but the behaviour is different. The first time I write '1' to 3104 the fuel pump is still 'off'. The second time I write '1' the fuel pump goes 'on'. 119875 WRITE0 3104, 1 bytes: 01 . 119875 SimWrite[718]: 3104="GENERAL ENG FUEL PUMP SWITCH:1", DDef=00000005, Ref=3379, Size=4 [flt=0.000000, int=1, 0x00000001] 122844 READ0 337E, 2 bytes: DE 21 .! 123687 READ0 3104, 1 bytes: 00 . 127844 READ0 337E, 2 bytes: 9B 25 .% 127891 WRITE0 3104, 1 bytes: 01 . 127891 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 66340 (0x00010324), Param= 0 (0x00000000) TOGGLE_ELECT_FUEL_PUMP1 127953 SimRead: 3104="GENERAL ENG FUEL PUMP SWITCH:1", INT32=1, FLT32=1.4013e-045, FLT64=2.0477e-311, Other=[01, 00 00 00] 130031 READ0 3104, 1 bytes: 01 . 3) I repeat test 1), but start my cockpit hardware (cyclic write '1') while FSX have finished its loading. Now the behaviour is like 2). On second write of '1' the fuel pump switch changes. Do you think there is something you can do? Regards Uli

Hello Pete, I am using the german version of FSX and FSUIPC 4.01. Please take care: I have problem writing 3101 (not 3102). While build the log file I got logging parts like the following. It looks like the toggle 'command' is given on each write of '1' ? 99594 WRITE0 3103, 1 bytes: 01 . 99594 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 66293 (0x000102f5), Param= 0 (0x00000000) TOGGLE_AVIONICS_MASTER 99641 SimRead: 2E80="AVIONICS MASTER SWITCH", INT32=0, FLT32=0, FLT64=1.5215e-311, Other=[00, 00 00 00] 99641 SimRead: 3103="AVIONICS MASTER SWITCH", INT32=0, FLT32=0, FLT64=0, Other=[00, 00 00 00] 101516 WRITE0 3103, 1 bytes: 01 . 101531 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 66293 (0x000102f5), Param= 0 (0x00000000) TOGGLE_AVIONICS_MASTER 101578 SimRead: 2E80="AVIONICS MASTER SWITCH", INT32=1, FLT32=1.4013e-045, FLT64=1.5215e-311, Other=[01, 00 00 00] 101578 SimRead: 3103="AVIONICS MASTER SWITCH", INT32=1, FLT32=1.4013e-045, FLT64=4.9407e-324, Other=[01, 00 00 00] 103234 WRITE0 3103, 1 bytes: 01 . 103234 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 66293 (0x000102f5), Param= 0 (0x00000000) TOGGLE_AVIONICS_MASTER 103297 SimRead: 2E80="AVIONICS MASTER SWITCH", INT32=0, FLT32=0, FLT64=1.5215e-311, Other=[00, 00 00 00] 103297 SimRead: 3103="AVIONICS MASTER SWITCH", INT32=0, FLT32=0, FLT64=0, Other=[00, 00 00 00] 104859 WRITE0 3103, 1 bytes: 01 . 104875 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 66293 (0x000102f5), Param= 0 (0x00000000) TOGGLE_AVIONICS_MASTER 104922 SimRead: 2E80="AVIONICS MASTER SWITCH", INT32=1, FLT32=1.4013e-045, FLT64=1.5215e-311, Other=[01, 00 00 00] 104922 SimRead: 3103="AVIONICS MASTER SWITCH", INT32=1, FLT32=1.4013e-045, FLT64=4.9407e-324, Other=[01, 00 00 00] 108359 WRITE0 3101, 1 bytes: 01 . 108359 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 66363 (0x0001033b), Param= 0 (0x00000000) TOGGLE_ALTERNATOR1 108422 SimRead: 3101="GENERAL ENG MASTER ALTERNATOR:1", INT32=0, FLT32=0, FLT64=2.0392e-311, Other=[00, 00 00 00] 110031 WRITE0 3101, 1 bytes: 01 . 110047 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 66363 (0x0001033b), Param= 0 (0x00000000) TOGGLE_ALTERNATOR1 110094 SimRead: 3101="GENERAL ENG MASTER ALTERNATOR:1", INT32=1, FLT32=1.4013e-045, FLT64=2.0392e-311, Other=[01, 00 00 00] 111656 WRITE0 3101, 1 bytes: 01 . 111656 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 66363 (0x0001033b), Param= 0 (0x00000000) TOGGLE_ALTERNATOR1 111719 SimRead: 3101="GENERAL ENG MASTER ALTERNATOR:1", INT32=0, FLT32=0, FLT64=2.0392e-311, Other=[00, 00 00 00] 113375 WRITE0 3101, 1 bytes: 01 . 113391 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 66363 (0x0001033b), Param= 0 (0x00000000) TOGGLE_ALTERNATOR1 113438 SimRead: 3101="GENERAL ENG MASTER ALTERNATOR:1", INT32=1, FLT32=1.4013e-045, FLT64=2.0392e-311, Other=[01, 00 00 00] I send the values (for this logfile above) using FS Interrogate; my hardware cyclic set the value (depending on status of hardware switches) a few times per second. In both cases I see the switches toggle in FSX. Does it help you? Regards Uli

Dear Pete, while doing an update to FSX and FSUIPC 4.01 I notice some problems writing to the offsets 3101 and 3103 (using a small hardware cockpit). While doing a cyclic write with the value '1' to 3101 (alternator switch) and 3103 (avionic switch) the switches seems to toggle (with each write of '1'). Regards Uli P.S. Thank you very much for this great tool.
