assigning PTT offsets

[dco]

Hi,

I would like to assign the PTT to my yoke (using FDT hardware)

PTT on offset = 1001, ?, ?)

PTT off offset = 1002, ?, ?)

I don't know what the offset length in bytes is (probably 1, 2 or 4?).

and the actual value to write to that location - I assume a value of 1 for putting the PTT on and a value of 0 for PTT off.

Not to strong in all this :oops:

Thanks,

Marny

Er, I think you are a bit confused there. There are no offsets for PTT. The numbers you quote are CONTROL numbers - i.e. numbers programmed on buttons or keypresses. Those above 65536 ae FS control, those below are those added by FSUIPC.

You can use offsets to send controls -- check 3110. You write the control number there as a 32-bit integer (i.e. length 4 bytes).
