GF-LGT Elev Trim isn't detected after FSUIPC v 3.71

[Jose Manuel Pereira]

Hi,

After version 3.71 of FSUIPC GF-LGT Elev Trim stopped being detected by FSUIPC.

I have the registered version of FSUIPC and yesterday i went back to v 3.71 and that version dtetect the elev trim wheel as a button on buttons tab in FSUIPC on versions after that one, 3.72, 3.73 and now 3.74 it only recognises landing gear lever and flaps switch.

I have GF-LGT programmed as the example on GFDisplay manual and all worked fine until 3.71.

I hope you can find what is preventing those "4 buttons" for the wheel to be detected.

Best regards

Jose

After version 3.71 of FSUIPC GF-LGT Elev Trim stopped being detected by FSUIPC.

How strange. I've not made any changes in that area that I know ofbut it is a long time ago, relatively speaking. The current version is 3.74 of course.

I have the registered version of FSUIPC and yesterday i went back to v 3.71 and that version dtetect the elev trim wheel as a button on buttons tab in FSUIPC on versions after that one, 3.72, 3.73 and now 3.74 it only recognises landing gear lever and flaps switch.

I have no Goflight equipment. If you had reported this with 3.72 it might have been so much easier to locate. Now it will be next to impossible! :-(

I hope you can find what is preventing those "4 buttons" for the wheel to be detected.

Why didn't you ask before? I'll try, but I cannot track back changes over 4 versions, only the last one or two. I always thought that to be enough!!

What button numbers are they in 3.71?

Pete

Buttons on Joystick 165 from 4 to 7.

FSUIPC.ini buttons configuration:

356=P165,4,C65607,0

357=U165,4,C65607,0

358=P165,5,C65607,0

359=U165,5,C65607,0

360=P165,6,C65615,0

361=U165,6,C65615,0

362=P165,7,C65615,0

363=U165,7,C65615,0

Well, i thought it was something related with the offsets, only yesterday i did went back to install 3.71 and it was then i did discover that they weren't detected anymore.

Never occurred to me before because the landing gear lever and flaps switch were working all the time and i was looking and searching this forum as i thought someone else would report this problem.

Lets just hope you can find it.

I have 3.74 installed now.

Lets just hope you can find it.

I'll have a look over the weekend. I may have to ask you do do a variety of tests if it doesn't look obvious.

You can ask me to do any tests you need to try to figure this out.

I will be around the computer all day Saturday, but on Sunday i will be most of the afternoon out.

I found something which might explain it. Can you please try 3.741 attached, when you have time.

Thanks,

Hi Pete,

All the buttons in GF-LGT are working again.

Just for info i have tried buttons on:

GF-45, GF-RP48, GF-T8, GF-P8 and GF-166

and all of them are working correctly

Thank you for the time you've spent figuring this out.
