Hi Pete, Thanks for the prompt reply. Your advice is highly appreciated, thanks for pointing me to the right direction. Wish you a nice weekend Cheers Thomas

Dear all, Im puzzled by this conflict that keeps happening nonstop with FSX & PMDG 777. These keeps popping up in the log continuously but so far I have not been able to determine which causes this. These happen even without me pressing any joystick button etc. I have disabled most of the keys from FSX controls, I still have few assigned but none regarding rotor brake or nav2 radio. Would anyone be so kind and try to point me at least to the right direction, where to look. I have registered version of FSUIPC. Thanks! Cheers Thomas

Many thanks Pete! I feel like I have climbed over a mountain with this... (if it actually works... ) ;-) I never thought I would need to learn programming, I have tried to avoid it as much as I can... hahahahaaa. Who ever reads this post and is thinking "how the hell will I learn any of this lua scripting thing"?? I can say that you really can, if you search and search and search and read and read and read... If I can learn this (even it is only these bloody few leds) I bet you can too! Dont give up!!! Cheers Thomas

Excellent, thanks Pete! I think i got it! :rolleyes: As you suggested I could do it all in one, so something like this: (1st switch for landing lights, 2nd switch for logo lts and 3rd for taxi light) function Lights(offset, value) if logic.And(val, 4) ~= 0 then gfd.SetLight(GFT8, 0, 0) else gfd.ClearLight(GFT8, 0, 0) end if logic.And(val, 256) ~= 0 then gfd.SetLight(GFT8, 0, 1) else gfd.ClearLight(GFT8, 0, 1) end if logic.And(val, 8) ~= 0 then gfd.SetLight(GFT8, 0, 2) else gfd.ClearLight(GFT8, 0, 2) end end event.offset("0D0C", "UW", "Lights") Cheers Thomas

Hi Pete, Awesome fast reply! Thanks a lot! To get things straigh, should my script look like this: function Taxi(offset, value) if logic.And(val,8) ~= 0 then gfd.SetLight(GFT8, 0, 2) else gfd.ClearLight(GFT8, 0, 2) end end event.offset("0D0C", "SW", "Taxi") btw. I thought 0D0C would be SW as the FSInterrogator says it is S16? (im probably completely wrong...) :mrgreen: I know im thick, but im getting there :oops: Cheers Thomas

Hi Pete, I´ve started writing some basic scripts using lua plugins and I was pleased to see that the test I did, actually worked. However, now I would like to move on to make the leds work correctly for separate lights under one offset address. This is the case: my GF-T8 are programmed for the external lights, they work fine. For example, the third switch is assigned to taxi light. Now I would like to make the 3rd led to light up when the switch is turned to on and clear the light when its turned to off. However, I have not able to found a solution how to write the script correctly. This is what I have now and I know it does not work because there are missing the info regarding the bits for the taxi light: function Taxi(offset, value) if value == 1 then gfd.SetLight(GFT8, 0, 2) else gfd.ClearLight(GFT8, 0, 2) end end event.offset("0D0C", "SW", "Taxi") should this be something like ("x0D0C", "8", "SW", "Taxi") where the "8" would be the Bit 3 value? I would like to also say that I have spent hours and hours reading through all these manuals, but it is HUGE amount of information that I feel somewhat overwhelming and Im still learning. If you could point me out to the right direction, im sure I can take it from there. I can manage to make a led go on and off accordingly, the problem is the 0D0C address which has multiple functions inside and im unsure about how to use the bits... Thanks in advance Cheers Thomas

Hi Pete, Again, many thanks! Thomas

Hi Pete, Thanks for pointing me to the right direction, at least I can start look into this.... Do you have any idea what would be the situation with the PMDG 777/747/MD-11? Would I be able to make the GF-T8 leds work accordingly using the 0D0C offset´s? Or have I totally misunderstood the logic? (could be as well :mrgreen: ) I need to do some more reading and then start experimenting. I quess I can always ask your support in this forum.. Many thanks so far and wish you a nice weekend Cheers Thomas

Hi Pete, The keys are programmed via PMDG FMC option within the sim, no controls are assigned in fsx itself, as Im only using FSUIPC for all assignments. If I recall correctly, I tried to somepoint use the lights via normal fs controls, without any succes, but those were the PMDG747 & MD11, so its some time ago.... Correct, you did not mention that I would need a lua plug-in, I was just asking additional question as Im thinking taking this a bit further. What Im trying to achieve with lua at this point, is that if I have lets say the taxi light on, the led on the GF-T8 would be on (green) as well. Im sure I dont have the knowledge at the moment to even understand what kind of stuff im able achieve with different lua's but this would be a start, as Im building my home cockpit panel after a panel... Cheerio Thomas

Hi Pete, Aha, I see. I did not realize that. This might be the answer to the problem. Shall check it, I did not realize GFDev logic that it then sends the state of all switches. Yes, you are correct, Im using GF-T8 switches to control PMDG777 external lights, which some are toggle switches and some are push buttons in the overhead, but so far it has worked well, other than the startup problem i posted above - which might now be solved - thanks to you Pete. I have tried multiple searches in relation to the light settings to get most out of it, but have been unable to find an "easy" and straight forward solution. Yes, I know there is Goflight PMDG Interface available, but I have not tried it yet as I always thought that I should be programming everything via FSUIPC in order to avoid any conflicts. Btw, regarding the lua, have I understood correctly, if I write a lua script for the T7 external lights and save it in the module folder (for example PMDG777lights.lua), does the system run it automatically or do i need to assign some keypress or button to run the script? Might be a completely stupid question, but I have read so many documents and forum posts that I find the amount of information overwhelming.... Most likely I would need help with the script, but I try to start at least myself in order to learn something... :) Thanks again Pete for your assistance Cheers Thomas

Good Morning Pete, That is exactly what happens, when I operated my taxi light switch. For example, I have assigned that taxi light switch to button press ctrl+x and programmed it via FSUIPC for the GF-T8. After initial loading of the aircraft, when I turn any of the light switches programmed in my GF-T8, the above is just what happens. After that the switch works correctly. Im sorry that the information was not enough, but I did as you asked me to do, started the event & button log, operated the switch one time and sent you the information. Obviously something is very wrong if it send all that button presses even only one switch is operated. You have helped me earlier, that was in another post where I had the problems understanding the logic programming the buttons. See link below: http://forum.simflight.com/topic/76235-fsuipc-4928-strange-behaviour-most-likely-a-conflict/ I can try to do this logging thing again, however, might take a day or two. In the meantime, I would appreciate any tips. Thanks Pete Cheers Thomas

Hi Pete, Many thanks for your fast reply, it is highly appreciated. Yes, you are right, I meant that all the light switches goes on, instead of all switches in the VC... Sorry, my mistake.

(not quitting fsx) and fly again, the switches works perfectly from the beginning. Im sure im doing something wrong, just dont know what. I have started to search info about the lua programming but I do not feel confident yet to start fiddling with it. I hope im not missing something obvious as I do not want to overload you in anyway with nonsense problems. Thanks in advance Cheers Thomas

Hi All, I have encountered another problem with GF-T8 module assigned for external lights for PMDG aircraft. The scenario is like this: I have assigned external lights via FSUIPC, using key press commands. I have followed the instructions to assign the lights correctly (Pete has also been a big help already) and the actual light switched works correctly, no problems. However, when I load for example the T7 at any location and switch lets say nav light on from my GF-T8, the light goes on, but also all the rest of the switches in the Virtual Cockpit changes as well, in otherwords, the switches toggles to on position. The only solution I have found is that I load the AC, switch any T8 switch and then manually click the switches in the VC back in the original position. Im using FSX, Windows 7, with the latest FSUIPC version installed. I recently deleted the FSUIPC ini file and started everything from scracth, but this problem has followed me already a year or two... I do not have anything set up via Goflight own setup wizard, as this was instructed not to be used together with FSUIPC if the assignments are done via FSUIPC. Any solutions or suggestions where to look? Should I start to look into lua programming to get things work properly or....? At least I thought I will start learning LUA to get the leds working correctly with the GF panels.. Thanks in advance Cheers Thomas

Hi Pete, Thanks for straighting this up, I got mixed how the system works. I did the same as for the 777 and the NGX which works fine, so thats why I wonder why it did not work with 747 and the MD-11. I will change the setup for the 777 and the NGX as well. This is what happens with a novice that does not understand the system correctly, thanks to you, I got this sorted Cheers Thomas

Hi Pete, Still having the same problem, what ever I assign, it freezes the keyboard and ezca is not working anymore. Somehow I think it will trigger the ctrl to be held... Heres the log when I tried to assing ctrl+c for beacon light, using goflight T8 switch. ********* FSUIPC4, Version 4.928 by Pete Dowson ********* Running inside FSX on Windows 7 Module base=66B60000 User Name="Thomas Schmiedeke" User Addr="seme_@hotmail.com" FSUIPC4 Key is provided WIDEFS7 not user registered, or expired 47 System time = 09/02/2014 11:01:27 47 FLT path = "C:\Users\Seme\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files\" 390 Trying to connect to SimConnect Acc/SP2 Oct07 ... 437 FS path = "D:\FSX\" 1279 Run: "D:\FSX\Modules\linda.exe" 1482 LogOptions=00000000 00000001 1482 SIM1 Frictions access gained 1482 Wind smoothing may be by ASN, not FSUIPC, if it is running 1482 Will switch smoothing action when ASN starts/stops 1482 G3D.DLL fix attempt installed ok 1482 SimConnect_Open succeeded: waiting to check version okay 1482 Trying to use SimConnect Acc/SP2 Oct07 1545 VRI port 1 "com3" opened 5039 VRI FMER ("MCP Combi") detected on port com3 5663 Running in "Microsoft Flight Simulator X", Version: 10.0.61637.0 (SimConnect: 10.0.61259.0) 5663 Initialising SimConnect data requests now 5663 FSUIPC Menu entry added 5710 D:\FSX\FLIGHTS\OTHER\FLTSIM.FLT 5710 D:\FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\Aircreation_582SL\Aircreation_582SL.AIR 108967 D:\FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\PMDG747-400\B747-400.AIR 129980 System time = 09/02/2014 11:03:37, Simulator time = 11:03:33 (21:03Z) 130464 Aircraft="PMDG747-400 KLM ASIA" 197903 Starting everything now ... 198059 Using "C:\Program Files (x86)\GoFlight\GFDEV.DLL", version 2.2.2.0 198059 GoFlight GFT8 detected: 1 device 198059 GoFlight GFRP48 detected: 1 device 198090 LUA.0: beginning "D:\FSX\Modules\ipcReady.lua" 198090 LUA.0: ended "D:\FSX\Modules\ipcReady.lua" 198121 AES Link established 198137 LUA.1: 198153 LUA.1: [iNIT]LINDA:: Loading... 198231 LUA.1: LINDA:: Aircraft: PMDG747-400 KLM ASIA 198246 LUA.1: LINDA:: Aircraft module detected: PMDG 744-400 198293 LUA.0: LINDA:: AivlaSoft library loaded... 198309 LUA.0: LINDA:: FSX standard library loaded... 198324 LUA.0: LINDA:: IAO library loaded... 198324 LUA.0: LINDA:: RealityXP library loaded... 198340 LUA.0: LINDA:: A2A MAP library loaded... 200383 LUA.0: LINDA:: Module: PMDG 744-400 Started... 200399 LUA.0: LINDA:: Ready to go, Captain! 200399 LUA.0: LINDA:: 200461 LUA.0: LINDA:: Offsets watching list cleared! 201741 Advanced Weather Interface Enabled 237309 Sim stopped: average frame rate for last 42 secs = 25.7 fps 265264 LogOptions changed, now 40000000 00000001 273922 *** Entered Buttons option page *** 280724 Aircraft="PMDG747-400 KLM ASIA" 294904 JoystickValues PCnum=0, dwCount=1, data[2]={0000006d 0000007f} 294904 FirstButtonChange res=00006D00 (0.109, 0) 333343 *** Exiting Buttons option page *** 339599 JoystickValues PCnum=0, dwCount=1, data[2]={0000006d 000000ff} 340940 JoystickValues PCnum=0, dwCount=1, data[2]={0000006d 0000007f} 343483 JoystickValues PCnum=0, dwCount=1, data[2]={0000006d 000000ff} 344341 JoystickValues PCnum=0, dwCount=1, data[2]={0000006d 0000007f} 346198 KEYDOWN: VK=50, Waiting=0, Repeat=N, Shifts=0 346198 ..
