OHD drop down list problem

[ivnic8]

Hi,

 

I have a problem in the ohd drop down list, in my registered version of FSUIPC 3.999.with FS9. I have assigned 2 toggle switches through a BU036X card to operate the left & right runway turn off lights for my PMDG 737NG. The left one operates correctly, but the right one does not. I also have the same problem with the Auto Brake, ie a toggle switch for auto brake + and auto brake -. Once again the auto brake -, works as it should, but the auto +, does not. I have swapped the wire connections over to different connectors, but it makes no difference, so it isn't the cards problem. 

 

Any suggestions on how to correct this problem,    

 

Regards,

 

Neil

I'm sorry, but I don't understand what you are saying. On the one hand you say you have a problem with the drop-down assignments list, but then you say you actually did manage to use it to assign things. Which is correct? What is the problem with the list? What is "ohd" (overhead display?)

 

And if the problem is in assigning some things, why would wiring come into it?

 

If you are actually saying it is a problem of your aircraft or FS not obeying specific FS controls, and not actually a problem with either the drop-down list or with making assignments, please provide more information. Which aircraft and which specific controls (by name)? FS itself does not have runway turnoff lights at all, so I assume you are using some additional controls provided by PMDG? Probably the PMDG aircraft uses separate autobrake implementation from FS as well.

 

You can also check for yourself whether the controls are being sent correctly by going to FSUIPC's logging tab and enabling Event logging. If you are concerned instead about whether your switches or buttons are working, enable button logging.  Operate the switches then check the FSUIPC.LOG file in your Modules folder.
