FSUPIC / FS command to turn markers audio on & off ?

[Iain Williams]

Hello

 

Perhaps someone can please assist me.  I have spoent a few hours attempting to work this out myself but without success.

 

I am wishing to configure the MARKERS switch on a converted B737  ACP panel so that the audio of the markers (inner, middle and outer marker) in FSX can be turned off and on via the push button switch.

 

I have tried several FSUPIC FS commands (sound set, etc) within the buttons section of FSUPIC;  however, nothing seems to work.

 

Do you know the correct FS commands to use within FSUPIC or an offset ??

 

Thank you,   WilloW

Did you try the obvious one, "Marker sound toggle" at all?

Hello Pete - Thank you for your reply.   Yes, I did try "marker sound toggle".  Unfortunately this did not turn the marker sound off.  I am thinking that the avionics suite I am using (ProSim737) may have something to do with it.

 

Do you know of another way using FSUPIC?   Perhaps a specific offset is needed ?   Just ideas on my end.

Well, there's bit 2 in the sound control offset 3122. You can find offset details by simply searching the Offsets list installed in your FSUIPC Documents folder. Search on "Marker".

 

However, as far as I recall, changing that bit simply causes FSUIPC to use the control you say doesn't work for you, so I'm not sure it will help at all. Maybe ProSim support can help?

Thank you Peter.  I will try your auggestion and report back as others may also be interested in the solution.  Cheers,   WilloW
