A320-Daniel

Hi Pete, thanks for this really fast answers... but now I have to say sorry... next I read the forum before posting the question (okay, I actually did... but obviously not enough :? ) I think I found the solution in another posting... the problem seems the &h in VB6... this makes a negative value if the input is too high... Thanks anyway... will try it out now! Daniel

Hi Pete, once again I need some help :lol: I tried to read offset c024 with 4 bytes to get the timestamp of the "AtAircraft"-weatherblock as I have read in the step by step tutorial of the new weather interface. However every offset I try to read ín the C000 and above area always returns 0. I can read other offsets (speed, heading altitude etc.) without any problem... Do you have any idea what I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance! Best regards Daniel

Thank you very much Pete for that fast answer... will start experimenting now...

Hi Pete, I have used the search function here in the forum to find informations to on how to set the IAS to specific value. Now I learned that this isn't possible directly. Do you know about any type of "work-around" to solve that problem? I'd need that function for an instructor station. Thanks for your help and your great work! Best regards Daniel

Hi Pete, thanks for your help! I read that part again... and you are right... it really isn't that hard.. don't know what was going on with me when I read it the first time! I got the syntax right now, so that shouldn't be a problem anymore!!! THANKS VERY MUCH! Daniel :D :D :D

Hi Pete, of course I'll choose the tidier method, if it works :D Could you help me with the FSUIPC.ini on that? I had already a look in the documentation... but I still need a little "kick" to get it :wink: Thanks!!! Daniel

Hi again, sorry I forgot one thing: Pete, you asked why I want to use an Offset: I built a hardware-ACP for my A320 cockpit (ACP=Audio Control Panel) There I have the possibility to decide on which radio I want to transmit. Squawkbox supports COM1 and COM2 and Private Voice. The A320 has 3 VHF-Radios, VHF1-VHF3). COM1 and 2 are both controlled via the PTT-option, depending on the selection made in the squawkbox. I want to control the private voice with VHF3. So if I switch on my Audio Control Panel the VHF3 to active, I have to trigger the PVT when I press my Radio Button on the joystick. So my software which controls the hardware-ACP shall write the active Radio (VHF1-VHF3) in the mentioned FSUIPC-Offset. Best greetings Daniel

Hi Pete, I'll try to clarify what I mean: I know about the two options in FSUIPC, one for PTT and one for PVT. That is also almost exactly what I need. But I want to use one joystick button for both functions. I don't want to trigger both at the same time, but I'd like to use a fsuipc offset for that. Another example: I'll take one free offset, size 1 byte. For example (the offset-adress ist just an example) offset $1234. If the value of that byte is 0, I want to use the joystick button to trigger PTT. If the value is 1 I want to use the same joystick button for PVT. So to summarize that: I want to use one button for two different functions, depending on the value of a specific FSUIPC-Offset Thanks for all your help! Daniel

Hello Pete, first of all thank you very much for integrating the PVT-function in FSUIPC. I highly appreciate that, because I do alot of online-flying together with a friend of mine (each of us in his own cockpit) We are both cockpit-builders and therefor I'm looking for a possibility to use one button for both and trigger that via FSUIPC-Offset if I want to transmit on COM1 or COM2 or PrivateVoice. I read in the FSUIPC for advanced users-document and if I understood that correctly, I can make that directly with the FSUIPC.ini Could you please show the lines in the FSUIPC I have to add to achieve that? Lets take as example joystick1, button 0 and an offset $ffff as a byte. When $ffff is 0 I want to transmit with the button above to com1 and when the byte is 1 I want to use Private Voice. Thanks for all your great work and your help here! Daniel
