Passing a hot key to my win app

[rfresh]

I am new to FSUIPC. I have read the users manual but still don't have a clear understanding of how I can press a hot key in FSX and have my windows application (running on another PC) respond to that hot key press?

 

Thanks...

That needs WideFS. Do you have that too? It's an extra purchase.

 

Oh, and it isn't a "hotkey", it can be any joystick button or a keypress, assigned in FSUIPC to send a message (called "KeySend with a message number) over the Network to a WideClient installation which has a parameter in its INI file telling it what to do with that specific message. As well as keypresses this can start or stop an application on the client PC too.
