Is there a way to control Aircraft functions that are controlled by clicking on a toggle or some other gauge on the screen that have no associated key to access the function with add-on hardware like Go Flight toggle switches Etc? If there were a way to determine the internal MSFS or Aircraft function I could map a button to that function, but how to determine what a 'click only' item's FSUPIC data is?

Friday, January 21, 2005 Good Day, I am looking for a little sales support; I am building a small simulator to use in training a group of Canadian Air Cadets, and want to make it as real as possible, I am a licensed pilot and also teach the cadets ground school and take them familiarization flying in Cessna 172 type aircraft. I am using FS2004 with WideView to spread the views around the cockpit and am finding that I need to get separate instrumentation for the pilot. I plan to use six 21” monitors for the surround view, the first two running from the Server FS as the straight ahead view and then using WideView to wrap the other four monitors to 180 degrees. The configuration is like perhaps a 737 but is not aircraft specific, we fly pretty well anything, I could send you a photo if you like. For control I use PFC pedals, Yoke and Throttle Quadrant. My problem is that I have WideFS but am not quite sure how to make an entry into using instrumentation on separate pc’s. I have three 14-inch monitors in the dash below the wrap around (quite a nice setup) and need some advise to get me started with WideFS instrumentation on these monitors. Can I somehow put existing FS2004 panels into the WideClient.ini, or do I need to purchase an application like perhaps Project Magenta or some of the panels or gauges on your site to make my entry into network instrumentation? Perhaps someone has written a how to guide for beginners like me. Well thanks for listening to my ramblings, please let me know if you can help.
