fsuipd dont want to keep device numbers

[sisoffi]

Hi Pete,

i reinstalled all my cokpit server pc. I clean install all but i saved my fsuipc configuration.

The devices are not the same numbers, i put manually the corrects old devices.

But one time i try to reload all assignement in fsuipc it reput again the new number 

Autoassignement is to NO. I dont understand.

I close p3d again the correct numbers devices, adn again come back with new device numbers.

new :

[JoyNames]
AutoAssignLetters=No
2=Saitek Pro Flight Combat Rudder Pedals
2.GUID={CBE53F10-D1EA-11E6-8006-444553540000}
1=Saitek Pro Flight Combat Rudder Pedals
1.GUID={CBE53F10-D1EA-11E6-8005-444553540000}
3=BU0836X Interface
3.GUID={CBE56620-D1EA-11E6-8007-444553540000}

 

 

correct are:

[JoyNames]
AutoAssignLetters=No
2=Saitek Pro Flight Combat Rudder Pedals
2.GUID={6F90A240-E0AA-11E5-8001-444553540000}
1=BU0836X Interface
1.GUID={05D53BC0-DCB5-11E5-8001-444553540000}
3=Saitek Pro Flight Combat Rudder Pedals
3.GUID={AFD71D10-F0DC-11E5-8001-444553540000}

 

many thanks for help Simone

Set AutoAssignLetters=No to Yes!

 

This will prevent changes to assignments if devices are disconnected and reconnected.

FSUIPC will use the GUID's to keep things straight.

I am curious as to why you show 2 "Saitek Pro Flight Combat Rudder Pedals" above in the

'correct' list when they have 2 different GUID's.

Hi,

According to AutoAssignLetters: The statement above is not completely correct: You should Keep it with "No" BUT you should assign letters in addition on your own. Here it is, how I have assigned my devices:

 

[JoyNames]
AutoAssignLetters=No
0=Saitek Pro Flight Yoke
0.GUID={35A598E0-AAF5-11E1-8002-444553540000}
1=TQ6
1.GUID={317A1330-B07D-11E1-800C-444553540000}
2=Saitek Pro Flight Quadrant
2.GUID={7EC7D4F0-B1C3-11E1-8001-444553540000}
3=Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals
3.GUID={35A598E0-AAF5-11E1-8001-444553540000}
R=Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals
Y=Saitek Pro Flight Yoke
T=Saitek Pro Flight Quadrant
G=TQ6

 

I assigned letters, which I can easily remember (like R for rudder). In my button and axis assignments I only use the letters:

:
27=RY,2,C65607,0 	-{ELEV_TRIM_DN}-
28=RY,3,C65615,0 	-{ELEV_TRIM_UP}-
:

The Y in the RY assignment says, that the key 2 (repeated) on my Yoke should trim the elevator down. So even if numbers change (e.g. if you plug/unplug USB devices), the letters stay constant and therefore the assignments.

Use JoyLetters and let it auto assign the letters. That's by far the easiest way. It sounds like you are changing the numbers in the wrong place, and the GUIDs are taking precedence. The joy letter system takes all the pain out of

Yes, that is better if you want to select your own, more meaningful letters, as you have done. If you leave it on Auto it will assign A, B, C etc. Leaving it on Auto afterwards is good for when and if you add more devices and want it to continue to assign the next available letter, but if you are choosing your own, then set it to no and do the new assignments yourself.
