Thanks for the info Pete. I am having MouseMacro problems with the Flight1 Cessna Mustang. What you suggested my help. Regards, Richard

Hi Jan, I see the same screen as you do. I just click on the FSUIPC screen, outside of the Macro screen, and the Macro screen disappears. I have not noticed any isses by doing this. You may want to ask Pete Dowson when he is back from vacation. Regards.

Thanks Pete. I'll give it a go.

Sorry, I've no idea at all what you are talking about. If folks want to accuse me of sloppy programming they ought to appear and show the evidence. Pete Hello Pete, I do agree with you. MindStar has claimed, since this issue appeared, that you have been contacted on a reqular basis. Their claim is that the crashes only happen if FSUIPC is in use so FSUIPC is at fault. Thank you for the reply, Best Regards, Richard

Hello Pete, Can you share any information on the FSX crashing issue when the MindStar G1000 and FSUIPC are both running? MindStar (and apparently Microsoft) suspects FSUIPC is causing the crash. I know you have stated in numerous posts here and elsewhere that FSUIPC is not at fault with FSX crashes. I'm not pointing fingers here, I'm just trying to expedite the resolution of the issue. It is going on four months that I have been unable to use the MindStar G1000 unless I disable FSUIPC. Since I use FSUIPC for axis, switch, button, and rotary integration, disabling FSUIPC is hardly an option. Best Regards, Richard

Hello, Pete, Cessna Mustang is twin engine VLJ. Very nice F1 product. Understand on the new build. I'm off to download. Many thanks, Richard

Not sure why I can't seem to figure this out. I have looked in the manual and did a few searches here. I just installed the F1 Cessna Mustang. It has no engine reverse. It has a Take Off detent, Climb detent, plus Idle and Cut-off. I have no problem calibrating the throttles for TO to Idle. However, I can't seem to figure out how NOT to have a Reverse range. I need a full range of throttle so at maximum calibration range, the throttles are in TO, and at minimum range they are in Cutoff. What am I overlooking? Thanks. PS: All the other a/c I have flown had engine reverse. I had no problems calibrating the axis for Max, Idle and Reverse.

Try a Mouse Macro found in the FSUIPC documentation. It is the best utility to control panel mouse hot spots with a hardware switch. You will need some type of hardware interface for the switch. By the way Pete, I have been meaning to thank you for the Mouse Macro. To me, it is by far the best addition to FSUIPC. THANK YOU! Regards, Richard

As stated, RXP is a guage inside FS. This might help some: http://www.simforums.com/forums/forum_p?TID=11260 I have the RXP GNS 530 running as a hardware GPS using real buttons and rotaries. The RXP GNS is un-docked and moved to a second monitor. In my case an 8" lcd screen connected to port 2 on the videocard. Functions are controlled with GoFlight P8 and RP48 units which are assigned keyboard commands through FSUIPC. The GNS bezel graphic is removed using panel.cfg adjustments as noted in the attached link. Regards.

Moving FSUIPC4.DLL to a Temp folder worked in disabling FSUIPC. Moving it back into the Modules folder caused no problems. Thanks, Richard

No, actually I ran the FSUIPC installer and it installed the files in the proper folder. I just do not want to cause any FSUIPC problems by moving the wrong file to a temp directory. then moving it back only to find FSUIPC now does not work.

What is the simplest procedure to temporarily disable FSUIPC? I need to test FSX without FSUIPC running but do not want to un-install FSUIPC. The manual states, "To simply compare things with and without FSUIPC4, move it to a safe place, run FSX, close FSX, then move it back. You only lose the ability to run it when it is in place if the installation file (DLL.XML) is changed or removed form its correct folder." Is the "it" the FSUIPC4.DLL file? Thanks.

I'll try your recommendations Pete. Not that it may matter, but using the client key board and manually pressing the "T" key causes no lag or problems in toggling the Fuel/Control display. Richard

Ok, I'll look through the PM doc. My mistake, I meant the WideFS .ini files for adding or changing a value. I'll look through that doc file also. I do have the PMRJ nav display's Airport, VOR, NDB, and Fix assinged to other GF buttons. Those are with the direct assignment listed in the FSUIPC Buttons and Switches, PM drop down box. Those work with no problems as does the Weather Radar using Assign by Parameter 72. The Fuel/Flight Control toggle has no directly assigned function (offset?). That is why I went to the key command option. Regards, Richard

Pete, Ok, good to know on the alternate method. Can you comment on why there is a lag in from button press to when the PM nav display actually changes from Fuel to Controls? What I'm referring to is, it seem that the button press is not being received properly. Sometimes it takes a quick double press for the dsiplay to change. Is there an FSUIPC.cfg setting that I could change that might help? Regards, Richard

Quick update. I do believe I have found the way to control the client. In the Buttons section of FSUIPC GUI, right side of screen, check mark FS and PM, then scroll down to PM GC Keys ( By Param). In the Parameter box, I entered 84, which is the parameter for the "T" key. It works, but pressing the GF button does not always sent the command. Appears to be a lag in sending the command. Richard

Could someone help with a button assignment question? Some background. FSX and FSUIPC on the server. PMRJ software and GoFlight module on client 1. I want to control a Project Magenta function ( "T" key press ) with a button press on a client. In the FSUIPC BUTTONS section, I have added this: 19=P1174,7, K84, 0 This command ( "T " ) is to toggle between the RJ Fuel and Flight Controls on the navigation display. The button press does work, but the key press is being sent to the FSX server instead of the client. Pressing the button sends a "T" key press which is for the FSX Transponder. I want the command to go the the client not the server. I do have other PMRJ commands assigned to this GF unit, but they are with the direct PM offsets or by parameter. Is this possible? I have looked but not found how to do this in the advanced documentation manual. Thanks, Richard

Yes, I know about the documentation. I just asked where PM Weather was in the drop down box, that is all. Didn't need a lecture on reading.

Sorry guys but I need to control via Buttons & Switches not Key Presses. What you suggested does work but a key press is not what I need. Any idea why Weather Toggle is not in the drop down box? Richard

Hi All, I would like to assign a switch to turn On/Off the PMRJ Weather feature on the ND screen. I'm looking in the FSUIPC Buttons & Switches right side drop down box, with PM checked, but do not see an entry for PM ND Weather. Any idea where it is located? Regards, Richard

Yes, reverse does work. However I do not use buttons. With FSUIPC, I have calibrated the throttle axis with maximun, idle, and reverse positions. As I pull the throttle back past the idle position, reverse is engaged. As you know, the GF throttles do not have idle detent stops. You must be very careful not to place the engines in reverse in flight. Mark that as a negative for the GF throttle unit. Richard

Hi Gerald, I have found just the opposite. I was experiencing throttle problems. I then realized I had the throttles assigned in GF Config and FSUIPC. I deleted the GF Config throttle assignments, then recalibrated the already assigned throttle axis in FSUIPC. That solved my problem. I deleted the throttles from FS9/X controller assignments a long time ago. Hope this helps, Richard

Never mind Pete. I suspect this is an impossible request which is most probably a RealityXP issue anyway. I did see that a 530.pln is being saved to the appropriate FS flight plan folder. If I use FS Flight Planner to load the 530.pln, it totally destroys the pmRJ nav display graphics. I have no idea why the .pln gets loaded properly in the default FS GPS but won't load in the RJ. Thanks, Richard

Hi Pete, Do you know if there is an offset that can be used to re-save a flight plan? I looked through the offset table and did a quick forum search but did not see any reference to my question. I use the RealityXP GNS 530 for navigation. With the GNS530, I can change a saved flight plan and export it to the default FS9 GPS which gets updated with the new route. Once changed, I need is a way to re-save the flight plan so the pmRJ software will re-read the last saved flight plan and display the new route on the nav display. I also looked through FSUIPC's available Button and Switches functions, both for FS and PM but again I did not see anything that might work. Regards, Richard

Pete, I thought I replyed to your TCAS question. Maybe it was in an email. I use the Project Magenta RJ software. The modes in the software are TCAS OFF, TCAS AUTO, TCAS ALL, TCAS CALLSIGN. I have no idea if these are real modes or something Enrico added. I guess I could ask him. TCAS OFF shows no targets. AUTO and ALL show a triangle target with the altitude, such as +34. If in CALLSIGN mode, I see the triangle and Delta or SpeedBird, but no flight number. I could never see the flight number that is why I was checking. Thanks for the help. Regards, Richard
