I think I stumbled on a solution which seems to have done the trick. I went into FSX OPTIONS, then SETTINGS, then GENERAL and unchecked "Pause on task switch". It seems some task must have been occuring in the background which was causing FSX to go into PAUSE.
Anyway, thanks Pete. I have learnt something along the way :)

Here is the IPC log.....getting pauses again today. I don't use this PC for anythig else, so it's strange.

I'm in the early stages Pete and have only registered WideFS at ths point. Interesting - just done two circuits with no pause, and I've changed nothing. I have a feeling it might be connected to my triple monitor config using Eyefinity.
I'll enable the logging as you suggest and report back.
cheers

Thanks for that suggestion Pete. I enable button/key logging as well as event logging, and this is what I got on the runway - two pauses not initiated by me. Any clues as to what might be happening ? BTW, I currently only have FSUIPC as an add-on.

When running FSX I often get the program going into pause mode. I can get things going again by clicking on the screen once then hitting the P key on my keyboard.
I have no idea what is causing this, but is there some setting within FSUIPC that will avoid the situation ?
-
This was the last thing for me to sort out for my flight controls, but the example on pg32 of the latest guide made it real easy :)
FSUIPC - what a great add-on !!

Thanks Pete, I think I have a better handle on this now. I prefer the "direct to FSUIPC calibration" based on what you said here and in the guide about efficiency.
One thing I'm still unsure about - how to be sure that the axes are not being assigned in FS itself. You said "the best way is to disable FS's joystick facilities altogether then program all buttons and axes in FSUIPC". That's what I want to do, but how do I disable in FS altogether ?
cheers

This thread seems appropriate to the question I have to ask. Apologies if I should be starting a new thread.
I have a purpose built throttle assembly for a jet with two throttles, and each throttle has it's own thrust reverser lever.
I've read the FSUPIC User Guide, but not quite sure how to set these up in FSUIPC (I prefer to do that than work in the FSX menu).
I've pressed rescan and can confirm that each of the four throttles is showing a signal. For (say) throttle no 1, I then check the top left box and get the scroll down menu. From there I can see throttles 1 - 4, so presumably i select one of those. Now do I just press "OK", and then do a rescan for the next throttle ?
For the thrust reversers, do I just select Throttles 3 then 4 ? How do I get increasing reverse thrust to be simulated ?
How is the level of thrust for each lever selected ?
Sorry if this is a basic question, but one has to start somewhere !

Well, the pausing has gone, but I'm now getting the sound turning off. A click of the mouse brings it back, but it's annoying. Probably a question for the FSX forum, but good to post here for the record.
I hope I'm not the only one to ever experience this !
