Linda and [E] VRI port 1 "com1" failed to open

[Dreamliner425]

Hi all,

 

I have recently downloaded Linda and installed this into my FSX Modules folder.

 

I bought the PMDG 737 NGX and am trying to set up my Saitek multi Switch panel, and auto pilot panel function to work on my aircraft with the PMDG.

 

I have followed videos, read the manuals and still have no luck.

 

I keep getting the error [E] VRI port 1 "com1" failed to open but on Linda my Com port says all ok.

 

Can someone please help, this is WAY harder than I thought.

You seem to have posted something like this in a different thread.

 

If the question is about LINDA then maybe it would be better in their Forum?

Hi Pete,

 

I am having so much trouble with my set up that is driving me insane!!

 

I have tried to find a linda forum and have had no luck.

Would you know where I can find this please.

I don't actually know there is a Forum, but there is a website -- I found it like anyone else could by Googling!

 

It's fs-linda.com. The picture there of the LINDA front end program does appear to have a Support Forum selection you can make, bottom right. Have you not tried that?

Just a FYI, the LINDA support forum is hosted at Avsim: http://www.avsim.com/forum/424-linda/

 

The VRI comm port message is only relevant if you're using VRI hardware like their MCP. If you're just using Saitek stuff you can probably just ignore it. ( I do! )

cheers for this both,

 

So I am only using Saitek, so I can just ignore this error?

 

Cheers

I believe so.
