PMDG 737 / PFC Throttle Quadran / Reverser axis 1 inactive...

[Philco]

Hello Pete,

 

Happy since three years with FSUIPC ( registered 4.937 ), I have a recurring problem with the calbration of reverser on the 737 PMDG via PFC 737 Throttle Quadran.( USB mode )

I know that this hardware is capricious and PMDG, complex and demanding.

I process "by the book", with your PFCHID.dll added in the module folder of FSX and all controls dsabled in FSX. The calbration is made following your instructions and manual in hand.

All settings and calbration goes perfectly ( controls,ruder, breaks, spoiler,flaps, throttle 1 and 2, gear, and the reverser 2...

Only the reverser 1 will not run...Still attempts, totaly motionless...Ded...

Would you have any report of other cases like this ? I found nothing regarding this bug on the forum...Did I miss something ?

I would be glad to have your advice to solve this "bug"

Best regards

Only the reverser 1 will not run.

 

There's no difference between the treatment of engines 1 and 2. Have you tested with the default FSX 737? That's the first step, to make sure it is not a problem with the PMDG add-on. Next step is to try the PMDG 737 using keyboard and mouse, to make sure you can engage the reversers even when you cannot using the PFC device.

 

After that you need to do some logging -- axis logging in FSUIPC will show you what is happening. If you temporarily run FS in Windowed mode you can enable the Console Log and see it all in real time on screen.

Bonsoir Pete,

 

Problem solved !

I followed your instructions, step by step and it seems that the PMDG undertaken against PFC hardware bug,,,Indeed, the setting on the "737 Default" is easy and without problem,,,

So, I create a profil "737 Défault" that I have uploaded on the PMDG 737 by recording Under " New...like..." and everything works perfectly.

Maybe, this information can help other simmers...

Thanks for your help and your great sofware.

 

Best regards

I don't understand Philippe?  Can you explain or can you post your "737 default" in the library or here?

 

Thanks in advance,
