FSUIPC and PM-GC

[Rainer Jung]

Hello together,

is there a command in fsuipc which allows to change through all the screens in PM-glascockpit like the pm-keyboard command pgup/pgdown? In fsuipc-manual I only found the param 10 within the pm cg controls to simulate the F4,F1,F2 inputs.

Did I overlook something in the documentation?

Best Regards

Which documentation? You really want the PM documentation rather than FSUIPC's. I did add some named PM controls, for the more usable actions, to FSUIPC, but in general PM is controlled according to their documentation, not mine.

There are two distinct ways of controlling PM modules. One is via the keyboard, and the other is via PM offsets. They are both covered, separately, in PMs own documentation, available on-line. You should note, though, that some of the facilities are only available via keyboard, and some only via offsets.

Both keyboard commands and offsets can, of course, be manipulated via FSUIPC. For Keyboard across WideFS you'd use the KeySend controls. For offsets you can use the pre-prepared PM controls added to FSUIPC, or the Offset controls where you explicitly specify the offset and the operation on that offset (value written, bits toggled, set or cleared). Some of the offsets actually send keyboard characters to PM modules, though i think this may be limited to the CDU.
