Offset 0x0330 buggy?

[Axel Reinemuth]

Hi, I'm trying to read Offset 0330 (Altimeter pressure setting), but it seems to be buggy.

I'm only getting a very large number, which changes slightly when turning on the Kollsman window. (Yes, I took the *16 into account, still very large number ;) )

 

When using offset 0332 (Altimeter secondary pressure setting), everything works fine.

I'm using the latest FSUIPC Version 4.944 and P3D 2.5

 

Best regards

Axel

0330 works fine. How are you reading it? Here's an example from P3D 2.5,  using the FSUIPC Monitor facility (right-hand side on Logging tab) with 0330 selected as type U16 (i.e. unsigned word), with some increments and decrements using the Kohlsman control:

 

   313047 Monitor IPC:0330 (U16) = 16322

   313047 SimRead: 0330="KOHLSMAN SETTING MB"

            FLT64: 1020.11390018

   314545 Monitor IPC:0330 (U16) = 16327

   314545 SimRead: 0330="KOHLSMAN SETTING MB"

            FLT64: 1020.42640018

   315855 Monitor IPC:0330 (U16) = 16332

   315855 SimRead: 0330="KOHLSMAN SETTING MB"

            FLT64: 1020.73890018

   320520 Monitor IPC:0330 (U16) = 16327

   320520 SimRead: 0330="KOHLSMAN SETTING MB"

            FLT64: 1020.42640018

   321128 Monitor IPC:0330 (U16) = 16322

   321128 SimRead: 0330="KOHLSMAN SETTING MB"

            FLT64: 1020.11390018

   321799 Monitor IPC:0330 (U16) = 16317

   321799 SimRead: 0330="KOHLSMAN SETTING MB"

 

There's really nothing to go wrong with it, and it certainly hasn't changed since FS98 days!

 

I'm using the latest FSUIPC Version 4.944 and P3D 2.5

 

The latest is 4.945 (actually 4.945a now).
