Hi Pete, Apologies - FSUIPC is v3.90 Right, will post on the FS9 forum as well - Will report any findings here - cheers, Farrokh.

Hi Pete - Have seen a strange issue with the Rudder in FS - under certain circumstances, the rudder will deflect in order to turn the aircraft towards a VOR - I'll explain: FS9, 747 400 (Mod by Perdo O), WinXP, latest FSUIPC, PM Aircraft in AP Once in awhile, on selection of a VOR in NAV2, the rudder will swing over Left or Right, depending on how off the aircraft heading is to the Nav2 VOR - The amount of deflection decreases, and then comes to zero as I turn (Hdg Sel) the acft towards the VOR - once the VOR is dead ahead, the rudder deflection scale in the Lower Eicas (and the spot view) goes to zero The course selected for that VOR does not seem to affect the deflection the Ailerons / Roll mode is not affected and works OK - this issue only affects the Rudder in AP Once this happens, selecting another VOR in NAV2 does not make a difference, it stays locked to the original VOR This does not happen in Manual: If I disc the AP, the rudder stays in it's deflected position. If I kick the rudder, it then jumps to zero. However, if I re-engage the AP, the rudder swings over L or R depending on the above. I was doing a flight around KaiTak, and on a go around, selected the CH VOR on Nav2 - I have seen this happening a couple of times at other airports and VOR's - I was wondering if anyone has reported this? I'm still trying out diff. situations - this seems such a strange issue that I wouldn't be surprised if I'm the only one.. :-) Cheers, Farrokh

Hi Pete - Alan has fixed FS2P to handle the audio panel - works totally fine now - great to be able to switch the MKR and VOR sounds on and off from the seat - cheers and thanks, FC

Hi Pete - ongoing post at: http://mycockpit.org/forums/showthread.php?t=14679 Some issues with FS2P and the way it handles the audio panel logic - Alan's looking into it ! Not a FSUIPC issue.. cheers, and thanks as always. FC

HI Pete Thanks - clearer now - I'll have to check this with Alan D - most likely my set up in FS2Phidhets is setting the ADF1 on everytime one of the other bits in 3122 is set to off - alternatively, I can use the usb i/o board to talk directly to FSUIPC and assign the buttons from there - WIll report - Cheers, FC

Hi Pete: Here is the log from a test today: Seq: 1. all off 2. NAV1 3. NAV2 4. all off When I switch all off, the panel goes to ADF on Thanks Farrokh.

Thanks for the reply! The aircraft is the default 747 400 / FS2004 I'm away from the sim for a day, will check the logs and send them to you - must be something I've missed - seems pretty straightforward- Cheers! FC

Hi Pete - Apologies ! FS 2004, latest FSUIPC (3.85), WinXP Will get the other data out and report FC

Hello Pete - Happy New Year! I am wiring my audio box in the sim to be able to use the nav1, nav2, mkr buttons - the interface is phidgets 0/0/16 - Using offset 3122 with bits 0 > 7 - I am able to assign the hardware switches OK to each of the functions, but seeing this issue: Any button, when switched OFF, sets ADF1 to ON - for eg, if I have NAV1 on, and then switch it off, ADF1 comes on - same for nav2, mkr, dme, etc - I then have to cycle the ADF1 button once to switch it off. it seems that Bit 0 is being set when any of the other bits are switched off - any thoughts? Cheers! Farrokh
