Thanks Pete, Over the weekend I installed the SimParts steering tiller and used FSUIPC Axis Assignment and Joystick Calibration. I now have tiller up to 60kts then the rudder has authority. Surprised as I have Saitek Pro Pedals which has its own driver and utilises FS Rudder axis which I thought would conflict if I set up the tiller with FSUIPC. I had FSUIPC 4.812 and AutoScanDevices=No with PMDG NGX and LINDA running. This is my .ini file as it is now but with 4.812a installed.

Pete, Crash is back with 4.812a and AutoScanDevices=Yes......... Regards, Derek

Artem, All my LINDA assignments are for PMDG737NGX forward overhead, autobrake,landing gear via three BU boards. My TQ is a Throttletek and the only LINDA assignments there are the two fuel control/cut off switches. All for the PMDG NGX Just been through to double check anyway and can confirm no default FSX aircraft are involved. Also started FSX, went to the NGX and all my LINDA assigned switches function normally as does the autobrake, landing gear and fuel cutoff controls. Pete did find problems with my Yoke (Joy#5) appears to have a fault slider but there again the aileron and elevator seems normal. Expecting email from 737Yoke support ref poss new driver update since 2008. Regards, Derek

Pete, Have it installed now, the "AutoScanDevices=Yes" set to No fixed the crash issue in PMDG737NGX. Disregard my previous comment ref greyed out screen, I meant no Joy# Axis # data but that is how it should be with Joy#5 disconnected, just my pea brain I guess. Once again, many thanks for all the time you have spent on this, it is VERY much appreciated. Regards, Derek

Will download the 4.812 again.......thought I had it but obviously not as "AutoScanDevices=Yes" does not appear in the .ini. Downloading now. Derek

Pete, The driver update did not fix the situation although the yoke seems to be fully functional. Been into Windows Games Controller, during test found one of the "Slider" unstable. It does not give any indication what slider that is, has two. Will contact 737Yoke, the company that produce the unit. Maybe not the driver but pot problem in the yoke. Would you like another .log reading with yoke disconnected? Will keep eye out for the new FSUIPC4 download Regards, Derek

Pete, That Plasma-MM2 is the 737 yoke.......had it since 2008..............it is from here.....http://www.737yoke.com/ Just unplugged the yoke and been back into FSX, PMDG737NGX still has crash problem attempting to open FSUIPC. Going back into FSX and the Cessna 172 whereby I can access FSUIPC\ Axis Assignments page...... the page is greyed out, no Joy # detail. Still have LINDA.exe uninstalled. Will re-run PMMR 123 and Device Manager for the yoke.....driver update Regards Derek

Pete, In addidtion, I have just unplugged all three BU0836X boards, started FSX, PMDG737NGX and attempted to open FSUIPC, the crash is still there. Went back into FSX to default Cessna 172 and FSUIPC Axis Assignments page and the numerals are spinning. Regards, Derek

Pete, Email sent with latest log and axis test. Artem, this time round I removed the [Program] RunIf1=D:\FSX\Modules\linda.exe and emptied actions.lua folder like before. This time round had crash attempting to open FSUIPC in PMDG737NGX. Only difference is new FSUIPC4.dll version 4.811d. Derek

Email sent with new log...............Derek

Email sent with latest LogExtras value..............Sim crash resulted.........Latest FSUIPC.log in email to you Derek

Pete, I have tested with devices unplugged one at a time, still had crash on attempting to open FSUIPC each time. Then I unplugged just the three BU0836X boards, these have all LINDA buttons and switches for my overhead panel which function perfectly. The result of unplugging the three BU boards together is I can now open and use FSUIPC as normal. So it is LINDA it would seem. Here is the latest log with all three BU boards unplugged,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Derek ********* FSUIPC4, Version 4.811b by Pete Dowson ********* User Name="Derek Froud" User Addr="dfroud1@internode.on.net" FSUIPC4 Key is provided WIDEFS7 not user registered, or expired Running inside FSX on Windows 7 Module base=61000000 812 System time = 19/03/2012 13:38:15 812 FLT path = "C:\Users\Derek\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files\" 843 Trying to connect to SimConnect Acc/SP2 Oct07 ... 843 FS path = "D:\FSX\" 1077 #### Initialising Dlrectinput Axis Scanning ... 1092 joyGetDevCaps for device 0 returned error 165 [000000A5] 1092 Trying: "HKCU\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaProperties\PrivateProperties\DirectInput\VID_16C0&PID_27D3\Calibration\0" 1092 Found correct joystick Id 1 1092 ... and a "GUID" value 1092 ... okay, Acquired device!

Pete, About to replace the .dll with 4811b, With 4811a I noted the crash now occurs if I attempt to open FSUIPC. Will try removing devices one by one today. Derek

Pete, Narrowed it down, no longer have the crash when coming out of FSUIPC when in PMDG737NGX, I completely removed and saved the orig Modules folder then created a fresh clean Modules and installed fresh FSUIPC4 ver 4.81 with no other programs in there. Must be an issue with one of the addon progies that appear in the original Modules folder, here is that list: FSUIPC4 with all the files. linda linda_config 0_PMDG_ATTN.MCRO ifly737.MCRO ipcReady.lua levelD767.MCRO Linda.exe linda.lua linda.log LVLD.dll_for _simconnect_1.zip NGX_AUTO.lua sb3guagebridge.dll Derek

Pete, Confirm the problem exists with buttons and switches also mouse macros creation. But can now narrow it down, tried simply opening and closing FSUIPC whilst in the PMDG737MGX. I went to Addons/Modules/FSUIPC and the usual front page appears, did not go any further just selected O.K. to come out of FSUIPC with the same crash. Screen go white with small window stating " Microsoft Flight Simulator has stopped working" there is option for windows to search for cause and report back but nothing appears unless it is recorded somewhere? When you say Windows error log, where does that reside exactly, can you advise path? Strange how the problem exists only with PMDG737NGX. Derek

Pete, Installed version 4.81 and problem remains, Did a test creating macros and soon as I hit O.K. to close out the Flt Sim stops. Only when in the PMDG737NGX, I do have SP1c and the model runs perfectly.

Hi Pete, I have FSUIPC version 4.80, just been searching for MaxSteerSpeed=60 in the .ini folder but unable to locate. Has it been withdrawn? I am aware the subject of tiller steering has been raised here many times but would like to clarify that rudders must be assigned and calibrated in FSUIPC to use MaxSteerSpeed, if you connect to the FS Rudder axis alone then MaxSteerSpeed can no longer be used. I have Saitek Pro Pedals which by default connect via USB to the FS Axis and include toe brakes. Is it possible to override these FS calibration and assignment and reassign using FSUIPC and still have toe brake facility? The tiller system I have is from SimParts, Stuttgart, USB connection via small BU0836 board. Another question off subject reference PMDG 737NGX, whenever I attempt to allocate Button and Switches in FSUIPC and press o.k. FSX closes down, I get a warning "Flight Simulator must close". Does not matter if I select Aircraft Specific or use FS. This does not occur with other aircraft models only the 737NGX. Does using Profiles eliminate this? Regards, Derek Froud

G'day Pete, Realise the new PMDG 737NGX is different to the FS9 PMDG 737 model. Any plans to include a MCRO OHD file for the NGX in future updates of FSUIPC4? Regards, Delf

Hi Pete, Thanks again for your suggestions. Have Simkit looking at the problem. Fairly sure it is a system problem I have here caused by MS Windows Auto Update. The Simkit Flaps gauge has been o.k. until a few days ago. The only system change has been that actioned by MS Windows Update (Auto). Regards, Derek

Hi Pete, Many thanks for the reply. Found possible reason for the SimKit Flap Gauge error with USBFSUIPC Link. Windows Update has high priority update for Microsoft. Net Framework 2.0 Service Pack (KB1100806) (X86). The Auto update failed to install this. Feel the original Net Framework could be at fault as this is required (I suspect) for Simkit software to run? If I attempt to uninstall the original MS Net Framework progy it fails. So Repair or Uninstall facility is no longer avail. Does this make sense? Regards, Derek

Have been running SimKits USB 737 Flap gauge without problems until recently. Whenever I attempt to open the USBFSUIPCLINK .exe (part of Simkits progy)I receive this response quote "USBFSUIPCLINK has encountered a prioblem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience". I have the latest version of FSUIPC (registered). Been on to Simkits Support and they suggest a fresh download of the SimKits software and recalibrate the gauge. I have done this but the error remains. Next I uninstalled FSUIPC and downloaded a fresh version. The Simkit gauge is fine in that whenever I connect the USB the gauge servos jump into life. The problem is with USBFSUIPC link to activate (connect to FS). The only recent change (addition) has been the use of two BU0836X inputs board and programming 737 Overhead functions using FSUIPC 737OHD listing. All the OH switches function o.k. Would or could this have caused conflict with Simkit USBFSUIPC link progy? Any suggestions on a fix or way around this problem? Derek (Heron 1B)
