Hello mr. Dowson,

In an attempt to control the starter magneto switch, I would like to make FSUIPC type sequences as M - - - (M minus minus minus) and M + + +.

Is this possible one way or another?

FSUIPC receives its control from an Open Cockpits output and SIOC and the FO_JoyStick64 Link FSUIPC_OUT Offset $3340 Length 4 command.

Thanks for your support,

Bram Stikkel

Yes, by multiple assignments to the same button. But it is not efficent nor reliable, and there are far better ways. There are specific megneto switch selection controls provided by FS -- MAGNETO Off, Left, Right, Both, start. Just assign directly to those!

Sorry, I've no idea how this part relates to the first part. Offset 3340 is the start of the array of 288 virtual button bits, occupying 36 bytes, not 4.

If you need to control magneto switches by offsets, there are simple 2-byte offsets for each engine. e.g 0892 for Magneto1.

Pete
