Hello Pete, Thank you very much for your quick and very detailed answer. I am now using separate BtnOn and BtnOff commands which works fantastic. I am sorry to ask a question that is answered already from your manual but I think my English is not the best. So I thought I should avoid BtnPulse but BtnToggle would be OK... Thank you again!

Hello Pete, I want to control Projectmagentas Boeing MCP via FSUIPC with my Epic ISA. After I did not get the wanted results, I reduced my EPL code to the absolute minimum, just to find out what is happening. This is what the code reads now: ------- definemodule(2,0,0,16) #include EPICVXD.INC :head_inc{enque16(BtnToggle,170)} definebutton(242,on,head_inc) ------- In the "Options and settings" dialog of FSUIPC I defined this button to increment the PM MCP heading by 1. I would await that EVERY press of the button would result in an increase of the heading value. But what I see is an increase of the value with exactly EVERY SECOND button press (also when there is a long time between these button presses). Later I found that already FSUIPC does only recognize every 2nd button press. With test128.exe all is ok. Do you have any idea of what could be the problem? Btw: It is nice to read that you and other flight simmers are also interested in steam railways, like me. I am also interested in steam engines in general. Hope I can visit the Dorset Steam Festival one time. It must be impressive!

There are updated drivers for Epic ISA running under Win2K. http://www.mindspring.com/~rrelect/epic/ISA/ Maybe they are also working with XP. I do not know. But there are some limitations: - Analogs will not work in Gaming Options. - Epiccenter is not fully compatible - You cannot use the advanced USB EPL code. I played a bit around with the ISA version with Win2K but I find it not very good. For me it is the best either to use the ISA version under Win 98 or the USB version with Win2K or XP. Unfortunately Ray closed the Blue Side Up EPIC forum.
