Sudden Problem with Compound Button


Recommended Posts

Hi Pete,

 

I have been using FSUIPC registered version for about two years now, and it works great.  However, I recently encountered a problem that I don't understand.  I am using version 4944a and have programmed my CH Eclipse yoke using compound key assignments for each plane.  This is the programming i have for the Lancair Legacy:

I use the first CH yoke button 0 for compounds. However, in the last two days I've noticed that when I press the 0 button, it releases the parking brake as well as performing a compound command.  For example, in line 3 above, it releases the parking brake as well as going to the next view.  Just pressing the 0 button releases the parking brake.  It appears some value has been assigned to the 0 button.
 
I opened the Lancair flight and just pressed the 0 button four times with the following FSUIPC4.log:

  FSUIPC4 has worked flawlessly for several years.  Hope you can help.

Hi Pete,

 

Basically, the problem was that a number of the buttons on the yolk were screwed up!  I solved the problem when I discovered that the button assignments in fsx had reappeared-don't know why.  I erased them and everything seems to be working well.

 

Thanks,

 

Gerry
