Minor FSUIPC/GF-TQ-6 Calibration problem [SOLVED] Kinda


Recommended Posts

I use a registered version of FSUIPC(3.997c) to assign all axis'.

I have a CH Yoke, Saitek x45, GoFlight Rudder and TQ-6.

Everything is working fine except lever 2 on my TQ-6. I have it assigned to mixture 1 for Prop a/c. (I know, Mixture 1 on lever 2??? I have the unit upside-down)

It's acting like a control input conflict... Jumping up and down as I slowly move the lever.

I have recalibrated in Windows CP and FSUIPC.

I verified I have NO assignments made in FS2004 and NO assignments using GFConfig(2.02). I also verified no other joystick axis' have the Mixture 1 assignment.

I use Profiles in FSUIPC, Piston Prop/Turbo Prop/Jetliner/Jet Fighter/Prop Fighter

I thought I was a master at this sort of problem... Is there anything else I may have missed?

I did find this in my FSUIPC.ini

3.GUID={B1C362A0-B77A-11E0-801A-444553540000}

This doesn't seem right to me... It looks as if FSUIPC has made dual enteries?

Thanks for your time,

Joe

I figured out my problem... It always seems to happen after I make a post!

However, I still don't know why FSUIPC is doing this...

I tried remarking the second set of joysticks but FSUIPC put them back, so I figure they're important.

What do you mean "second set of joysticks"? There appear to be 4 distinct joystick connections, and thast's all that are listed. The GUID's are Windows' way of identifying them uniquely. FSUIPC uses them to resolve identical devices -- for instance if you had two TQ6's connected, they'd both be called "GoFlight GF-TQ6 Throttle System" but they'd always have different assigned GUIDs. This ensures FSUIPC can track them if you plug them in differently so they get different IDs. Though it cannot auto-reassign unless you change to using joystick lettering. It is all explained in the section of the User Guide called

Keeping track of multiple control devices ("Joy Letters")
