Hi all, I am having this problem: Using 737prosim v3.01 fsuipc v 6.01TQ CFY v3 proCP Flight MCP, efis, CDU and radios12 Arduino's with Mobiflight SoftwareFlight Illusion GaugesAgronn YokeFull 737 Cockpit So my problem I take off and after about 2 minutes i try to engage the autopilot on the cpflight. It engages but it immediately disengages again. I’ve heard some tips to avoid this problem: delete all the joysticks from fsuipc and p3dv5. But no luck. I tried everything for 2 months now but the problem persists. This is very annoying. When I 'switch off' fsuipc then no problems. Same for the CFY throttle software. So someone told me this must be a problem with fsuipc. That's why i am posting my problem in this groep. Hope someone can help me here?

Hello, I am a registered user of FSUIPC and WIDEFS for 11 years, and I thank Pete very much for this extremely complete software. The operation of WideFS is still operational with P3D-V4. Bravo. I bought an FSUIPC5 key as soon as it was available, and everything works perfectly with P3D-V4. Now, here is my problem : I own an MCF + EFIS from CPFlight. It worked perfectly with the supplied driver, as well as the (Expensive) software from FS-Labs. Unfortunately , the FS-Labs software is a 32 bits version, and there is no planned version for compatibility with P3D-V4. So I looked for another solution, and by reading the important documentation provided with FSUIPC, I discovered that there was everything necessary to direct control for my hardware. So I started using LUA plug-ins, helped by the many examples provided. Great job, Pete ... Very well explained and very complete. Unfortunately, I am not able to make a simple com.write () ... I run P3D-V4 with the following LUA script, associated with a keyboard key ("A") : MCP-747.lua : ----------------------------------------------- -- Commande du MCP-747 de CP-Flight avec LUA ----------------------------------------------- speed = 38400 -- Vitesse du port USB handshake = 0 -- No handshake MCP = com.open("com6", speed, handshake) if MCP == 0 then ipc.log("Pas trouvé de MCP-747 de CP-Flight") ipc.exit() end ipc.log("Port USB ouvert") n = com.write (MCP, "Q001") ipc.log(n) When I execute the script ("A" key from the keyboard), the LLUA log (MCP747.log) gives this: ********* LUA: "MCP-747" Log [from FSUIPC version 5.101] ********* 256825 System time = 21/06/2017 11:42:37, Simulator time = 14:44:36 (12:44Z) 256825 LUA: beginning "M:\P3D-V4-0\Modules\MCP-747.lua" 256825 LUA: M:\P3D-V4-0\Modules\MCP-747.lua:5 256825 LUA: Global: ipcPARAM = 0 256825 LUA: M:\P3D-V4-0\Modules\MCP-747.lua:6 256825 LUA: Global: speed = 38400 256825 LUA: M:\P3D-V4-0\Modules\MCP-747.lua:8 256825 LUA: Global: handshake = 0 256903 LUA: M:\P3D-V4-0\Modules\MCP-747.lua:10 256903 LUA: Global: MCP = 5029216692 256903 LUA: M:\P3D-V4-0\Modules\MCP-747.lua:15 256903 LUA: Port USB ouvert 256903 LUA: M:\P3D-V4-0\Modules\MCP-747.lua:17 256903 LUA: M:\P3D-V4-0\Modules\MCP-747.lua:19 256919 LUA: Global: n = 0 256919 LUA: 0 256919 >>> Thread forced exit (ipc.exit or os.exit) <<< 256919 System time = 21/06/2017 11:42:37, Simulator time = 14:44:36 (12:44Z) ********* LUA execution terminated: Log Closed ********* The trace of the serial port (COM6) by the "Advanced Serial Port Monitor" software gives this : <20170621114237.550 SYS> COM est ouvert <20170621114237.550 SYS> Taille de queue entrée/sortie 1024/1024 <20170621114237.550 SYS> Unable to add string #8 <20170621114237.553 SYS> Débit en bauds 38400 <20170621114237.556 SYS> RTS activé <20170621114237.559 SYS> DTR activé <20170621114237.562 SYS> Bits de données=8, Bits d'arrêt=1, Parité=None <20170621114237.562 SYS> Configurer charactères : Eof=0x00, Error=0x00, Break=0x00, Event=0x00, Xon=0x11, Xoff=0x13 <20170621114237.565 SYS> Handflow : ControlHandShake=(DTR_CONTROL), FlowReplace=(TRANSMIT_TOGGLE, RTS_CONTROL), XonLimit=896, XoffLimit=512 <20170621114237.565 SYS> Purger le port série : RXABORT, RXCLEAR <20170621114237.983 SYS> Purger le port série : RXABORT, RXCLEAR <20170621114238.101 SYS> COM est fermé There is nothing writen on the Com6 !
