offsets help

[smartarze]

Hi guys, don't know if anyone can help me i'm trying to control the autobrake switch on the leveld 767. I have my switch wired and working through a flightdecksolutions sys board. I can get it to control autobrakes on default aircraft but not on leveld767.

Please tell me if i have correct setting.

offset: 8b3a

type:byte

operation:setbit

bit:0

bit0 for RTO

bit1 for OFF

bit2 for disarm

and so on

is this right or have i missed something?

The LevelD 767 does not use standard FS controls for many things. You probably need to refer to their own SDK.

Please tell me if i have correct setting.

offset: 8b3a

8b3a? Where do you get that from? That appears to be in the middle of some display control structure, nothing to do with autobrakes or anything else of use that I know of.

The standard FS autobrake is at 2F80, as documented in the FSUIPC SDK. Please do refer to the correct references.

bit0 for RTO

bit1 for OFF

bit2 for disarm

and so on

None of that is true for the correct FS offset, 2F80. It is a number, running from 0 for RTO to 3 for MAX -- not individual bits.

is this right or have i missed something?

I am wondering where you are looking to get this stuff?

hi, i got 8b3a from the leveld sdk which i thought was the offsets for the autobrake?

Ah, you must surely mean Nico Kaan's Level D interface, FSConv. Are you running that program? I don't have anything listed as being used by Level D directly.

I'm afraid I know nothing about Nico's work. You'd be better off talking to him directly.

yes thats correct pete, i'm using fsconv, They are his offsets. I will see if he can shed any light.

Thanks for your help

much appreciated.

I asked Nico a while ago to add some additional offsets for the Level-D 767 which he did. Recently I asked for him to add some more but he no longer maintains that utility.

So I then coded my own utility for the controls/switches etc that I wanted to read from the Level-D 767.

If you need to read controls/switches etc that are not in the FSConv utility then let me know. I can help you with that if required but it would involve you then using my utility and not FSConv.

Or maybe you could use his LEKSeeCon !?! (or similar, can't remember offhand what it is called)
