Hi Adrem, thanks a lot.. that is a great trick. Now it works prefectly. KR Joe

Hi, @adrem, I have tried again for curiosity your script with the last suggested modification and now the script does what it should do.. the only strange problem is that the steering seems now to act in 'reverse' mode. Joe

Hi Pete, yes.. you are right.. I have now assigned rudder and steering to same axis and things are fine. I was thinking that doing that i could find troubles at high speed during takeoff anf landing, but is not the case Thanks also to @adrem: for sure I will test that for other stuffs I have in mind. Thanks again and KR Joe

Hi, I think I'm misisng something. This is what I wrote following @adrem suggestions, but it seems to not properly run: STEERING_SET = 66818 function onRudderAxis(_, value) ipc.control(STEERING_SET, value) end function disconnectRudderAxis() ipc.setbitsUB(0x310A,4) end function reconnectRudderAxis() ipc.clearbitsUB(0x310A, 4) end function onGroundFlag(value) local onGround = value == 1 if onGround then event.timer(5000, "disconnectRudderAxis") event.offset(0x332C, "SW", "onRudderAxis") else event.cancel("disconnectRudderAxis") event.cancel("onRudderAxis") reconnectRudderAxis() end end event.offset(0x0366, "UB", "onGroundFlag") Thank and KR Joe

Hi, Thanks a lot for the replies!!!!!!!!!! I will give it a try. At the end I think that I will substitute the ailerons with the rudders, but I think that the concept should be the same. Thanks again and KR Joe

Hi, is there the possibility to dynamically assign different controls to an axis? For example: is it possible to have an axis assigned to the steering on the ground and to ailerons when airborne? Thanks and KR Joe

Hi Pete, thanks a lot.. but I do not undestand where I have to specify the number of seconds KR Joe

Hi, I need to find a way to simulate a keypress for a specific number of seconds. Seems that ipc.keypress do not have that kind of option. Is there a sort of workaround or another method to use in lua? Thanks and KR Joe

HI, thnaks for the inputs... yes.. the issue was caused by a wrong type of double quotes... writing the statement with the right quotes everything is fine now. KR Joe

HI, hope that someone can help me with a strange issue I'm finding in a LUA file I'm doing. At these specific lines: event.key(119,3,"APUON”) event.button("H",21,1,“IRSON”) I get in the FSUIPC log the following error message: *** LUA Error: E:\FSUIPC6\FSLAB1.lua:92: unexpected symbol near 'â' This happens for each line where i put the event.key or even.button calls. Any idea about which could be the problem? Overall that character is not part of the lines Thanks in advance and KR Joe

Hi, you should read the Appendix 3 of the FSUIPC Advancer User Guide to see what I'm referring to.. there you can find all the details and steps to follow. KR Joe

Hi, honestly I do not know what changed last time I uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers. By the way after several attempts the connection went suddenly fine after re-executing the drivers setup. For sure what you have to check and recheck is the right COM where the VR device results installed (in Device manager - Ports - USB Serial Port entries) and the consequent coupling (I use VSPE software for that) KR Joe

Hi, I solved the issue uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers coming with VRI software. KR Joe

Hi, I have just installed the new P3D 5.2 and I have noticed several and repetitive disconnetcions of my devices managed by FSUIPC 6.12. To have them reconnected I have to pull them out and after pulled in again. I have uninstalled 5.2 and reisntalled P3D 5.1: after that no more disconnections. Are you going to release a specific version of FSUIPC for the new P3D hot fix? Thanks and KR Joe

Hi John, thanks for the prompt reply. Things are now better: generic commnds are norìw back, only some swap on devices (i.e between the 2 quadrants) . What is still missing are the commands related profile. Could you please have a look at the specific profile ini file attached to drive me to the soultion also here. Thanks a lot for your support and patience Joe B738U.ini

Hi, thanks for the prompt reply. Yes I have used the install_FSUIPC, I have copied only macros, luas and profiles. Attached the 2 files.. hope it will be easy to adjust 🙂 KR Joe fsuipc6.ini FSUIPC6.log

Hi, I have installed P3D v5.1 on a new PC nand after I have copied all the content of my FSUIPC folder (macros, lua scripts, profile, etc.). The problem is that all configurations and definitions (axis, buttons, keys, etc) are now completely empty: I think that the issue could be due to that the devices identification in the ini files are no more valid and the related commands are no more associated to them. How can I solve the problem? Thanks and KR Joe

Hi Pete, as usual you were right. I do not know why, but the firewall was active and that was the problem: selecting on the firewall the right ports settings now everything is ok. Thanks a lot and happy Easter Joe

Hi, that's strange I have the firewall disabled ... by the way all the 3 connected PCs are no more able to connect.

HI, after years of runs without any issue, suddendly today I'm no more able tohave WIDEFS connecting to P3D v5. I'm running FSUIPC 6.0.13 and Widefs 7.1.57, attached the logs. Thanks for the support and KR Joe WideClient.log WideServer.log FSUIPC6.log

Hi John, an update on the point. I noticed that I did not have installed the last update of PMDG, after the installation of the last version of the plane things seem to be fine now. Thanks again for your support KR Joe

Hi John, thnaks again for your support.. I will look around for a possible solution. KR Joe

Hi, yes.. I have tried also sending the control only on release. No change with the mouse macro end no change assigning keys. I have found only a way to have that: just after to have loaded the plane if I click in the panel on the rotaries with the mouse, after the commands issued trough the device increment of 1 digit Crazy! KR Joe

Hi, I have noticed an interesting point: the LED display on the device shows the right digit increment (1 by 1), so it seems that is effectively an issue related on how the input in the simulator is managed.

Hi John, thanks for the support and suggestions. Attached the file containing the console entries when clicking the mouse, and another log. I send to controls 2 times (one on press, one on release) because is the only way to have the value set when acting on the rotary: if I send to contol only 1 time (e.g. for press), I have to act on the rotary two times to have the value on the MCP changing and by the way the incerment is anyway 5 digits. Yes... the device is the VRInsight MCP Combo Clicking only once I have in the log these rows added: 1412125 Button changed: bRef=0, Joy=257, Btn=19, Pressed 1412125 [Buttons.PMDG 737-800NGXu SSW LUFTHANSA] 240=P257,19,C70022,536870912 1412125 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 70022 (0x00011186), Param= 536870912 (0x20000000) <70022> 1412125 FS Control Sent: Ctrl=70022, Param=536870912 <70022> Thanks again and KR Joe FSUIPC6.log console.txt
