When in the section for assigning Key Presses, FSX locks up every time as soon as I start to enter in any field. I then have to go to the task manager and end FSX. Any idea why this would happen? Thanks a lot, Howard

Sorry Pete, I completely forgot about the drop down assignments list in FSUIPC. These "senior moments" are coming on much too frequesntly lately. I will check tonight. Thanks again, Howard

Well Pete, I did first look in the FSX assignments and could not find any relative commands to increase and/or decrease the frequencies for either the units or the fractions.

Pete, If it is possible, could you please give an example on setting the Saitek throttle buttons to set the com frequencies? Thanks a lot, Howard Bloom

Thanks Pete. I did find the thread you referred to. That, along with the advanced manual, is going to take some serious reading. At least I now know that it is possible. Thanks again, Howard

Hi Pete, I am using the Saitel Pro Yoke & Throttles, which are capable of using 3 modes. Is it possible to program the 3 modes within the FSUIPC software, and if so, how? I searched the forum and couldn't find this topic. Thank you and best regards, Howard

Hi Peter, Why are the options greyed out on the 'Buttons & Switches" tab? Attached are snapshots of the FSUIPC applicable screen and the Game Controllers screen in the Control Panel, indicating I am using the CH Control Manager software to make assignments to mycontrollers. Thanks, Howard

Hi Pete, If I am using the CH Control Manager in mapped mode in FSX, can I still program the joystick axes and buttons in FSUIPC? Thanks, Howard

Hi Pete, Sorry to bother you, but I just installed a new system and I cannot locate my FSUIPC registration. :cry: Could you please resend it to me? Thanks a lot, Howard

Thank you for your replies and help. I am off to experiment.......again.

Hi Pete, If I am using the CH Control Manager software in mapped mode, will FSUIPC still see my CH Yoke and Throttle and will I be able to assign keystrokes and axis assignments within FSUIPC? Thanks a lot, Howard

Thanks Pete- Yes, it is Wide FS that I need and was confused with wideview. I want to use FS Commander on the lap top, and Wide FS, I believe, will do that job just fine. Thanks again, Howard

Hi Pete, I just received a new lap top, and I, of course, want to incorporate it with my FS program. I guess I am a little confused, again. Are Wide FS and MaxiVista used together, are they complimentary or do they both provide the same function and do the same thing? Thanks a lot, Howard

This is the new CH Throttle Quadrant with 6 axes, and each has a detent. The area travelled below the detent is for reverse thrust and/or braking. The idle value (-14518) is the value at the detent as shown in the FSUIPC page with 4 throttles. I did not use the page 1 throttle setting at all. I will try again tonight and see if I can figure this whole thing out. :wink: Thanks again, Howard

Hi Peter, I know this subject has a long history, but I just purchased the CH Throttle Quadrant and was callibrating the TQ in FSUIPC and these are the values for each of the 4 throttles: Rev -16065, Idle -14518, and Max +16065 Do these values look correct to you, in order to provide reverse thrust, where available? Am I supposed to set 'reverse thrust' anywhere else in order to achieve it? I have not been successful getting Reverse Thrust to work, and I have also been discussing this with Bob Church, who, you know, authored the wonderful Control Manager software for CH. The values in CM after callibrating are: Detent 240; Reverse 255; Maximum 0 Bob concurred that these numbers look good. Thanks a lot, Howard

Hi Pete, I am using the CH USB Yoke, Throttle & Pedals and I have the three levers assigned in FS2004 as follows: Left lever as the prop adjustment Center lever as throttle #1 Right lever as throttle #2 Is it possible to assign a hot key within FSUIPC to toggle back & forth between the above assignments and the following: Left lever as all throttles Center lever as prop Right lever as mixture I like to use the first set of assignments on twin props and the second for all other planes. Thanks a lot, Howard
