  1. Thanks John. In the process of attempting to collect the above, I found that the button I originally mapped is now working. I then tried with my next button and it did the same the first originally did (not working) until I exited FSUIPC and restarted it (Did not restart the sim). Maybe I just misunderstood restart requirements? I didn't think per a previous thread that I needed to restart FSUIPC after mapping a button to a newly created LVAR line. The only file I was editing was the <profile>.ini file by adding in the new LVAR line and then doing a WASM reload before assigning the button.
  2. one thing I probably should have mentioned, If I use the Set LVAR feature and set the value to 0 or 1, it is toggling the switch in MSFS, so I'm positive I have the correct LVAR.
  3. Waiving a white flag and asking for help. It's probably something stupid I'm overlooking but for the life of me I cannot get a LVAR mapped to my honeycomb. I've read through the manuals and looked at several posts. Maybe someone can tell me what I'm overlooking. Hopefully if I can map one switch, I can reverse engineer and replicate from there. Trying to map the AUX_BUS switch in the SWS Kodiak to a on/off switch on my honeycomb alpha. Here's what I've done so far: 1) Verified the LVAR I need is XMLVAR_AUX_Bus_ON from hubhop.mobiflight. Listed LVARs with Add-Ons -> List WASM -> List Lvars. It does show up and has possible values of 0 and 1 (verified by clicking in MSFS on it and refreshing the Lvars list to see it change. 2) I'm using Profiles, so in my kodiak.ini file, I added it as my first LvarOffset as an unsigned bit at what I understand to be the first available free address [LvarOffsets] 1=L:XMLVAR_AUX_Bus_ON=UB0xA000 3) In FSUIPC7, under assignments -> Buttons & switches, I've checked the profile box, verified it matches the right one and clicked the button on my alpha (it registed as C 18 for what its worth. Hit the checkbox for Select for FS Control 4) Choose Offset Byte Togglebits, offset of xA000 and parameter x01 5) Clicked OK 6) Re-opened button assignments window, chose reload all buttons just in case 7) Double checked the Ini file. It did add the button entry (Entire file contents below): [Profile] Created=03/02/2022 16:20:49 [LvarOffsets] 1=L:XMLVAR_AUX_Bus_ON=UB0xA000 [Buttons] 0=PC,18,Cx0D00A000,x01 -{offset byte togglebits, offset A000}- 😎 Tried to use the button. Nothing happens - What on earth am I forgetting to do?
  4. Thank you. Will make sure to do the above going forward.
  5. I'm trying to use FSUIPC7 to map some aircraft LVARs to a Honeycomb Yoke as custom offsets. Between the users guide and forums, I have managed to get that working, but so far I'm finding that I need to restart the sim to make them work once I assign a custom offset in the button & Switch Assignments. Is there a way to avoid having to do that? I know I can initially create additional custom offsets without a restart by choosing Add-ons -> WASM -> reload, but what about assigning them? Do I need to exit and restart MSFS every time I assign a new button/switch to a custom offset for it to take effect? - Chris
