Hello, I have a question and took time searching unsuccessfully solution.

 

I want to assign a key or joystick button reset elapse time, I do not see how.

 

 

 

Thanks in advance.

What elapsed time? Where are you seeing it counted?

Thanks for your quick response.
 
I'm using the Beechcraft Duke B60 RealAir and as I show in the attached picture, I want to assign a key to set the timer to 0.
 
I tried to make a Macro and not get it to work.
 
regards

Sorry, I still can't figure out what it is from that picture. Do you mean the clock device in the main instrument panel?

 

Unless the makers of the panel have provided a way to do this, it may not be possible.

What sort of macro? Writing to an L:Var, or one made using the Mouse Macro facilities?

 

Mouse Macros only work with gauges written strictly to a now aging Microsoft gauges SDK. Very few modern aircraft use this nowadays, unfortunately.

 

It may be available as a local panel variable (L:Var). You could list those (there's an assignable FSUIPC control for that), or even log them in real time using the supplied Lua plug-in for this purpose. If you can identify the L:Var then you can write to it using a macro. The details are in FSUIPC documentation (about page 40 in the Advanced Users guide).
