Whenever i plug in the captains Main flight control box (ethernet cable from yoke and rudder pedals connects to this box) or the FO MFCB the settings transfer over to that one that connects. Its like I can't start a fresh setup for my prosim profile.

Posted

Another update.

I backed up my FSUIPC.ini and started a fresh and only one side is getting recognised (FO) and not the captain, no axis or switches are recognised 

Posted

I need the log and the INI file, and the joyscan CSV file. And make sure you are using a currently supported version (of FSUIPC -- 4.971 for P3D3).

Does P3D3 see those devices?

I cannot help with virtually zero information. Sorry.

supply a driver? if the device(s) are normal jotstick type devices you probably shouldn't be using it if so.

I see you are the person who posted another thread here just rudely saying "bump"? Please do not do such things. It wont be taken kindly. if it was meant to attract faster attention, it didn't work. You only started this thread 3 hours ago! How fast do you expect a response? With most support sites you'd be lucky to get one the same day. I only caught it now because i tend to do a quick scan befor going to bed -- it is gone midnight here!

And I won't be around much tomorrow. Many other things to attend to!

Hi pete i started a new FSUIPC which done the trick :)

But only 1 problem. I've assigned a profile called PS (prosim) my both yokes and rudder pedals are under this profile but my problem is the brakes, my captain side is ticked for reverse in FSUIPC but this has the opposite effect on my First officer brakes which are then stuck on? Any ideas?

Your logs all relate to an old version of FSUIPC, 4.965, which I really cannot support. Please, before posting ANY support request, do check that you are using an up-to-date supported version.  At present the earliest supported version is 4.971.

See the Download Links subforum,  Updated Modules thread for details.

Then, assuming you update:

Again, with no information I cannot possibly forulate a useful "idea". At least the INI file is needed.

The INI shows only one set of brakes: 

9=CU,256,D,7,0,0,0    -{ DIRECT: LeftBrake }-
10=CV,256,D,8,0,0,0    -{ DIRECT: RightBrake }-

So where are your "First Officer" brakes asigned?

Problem i'm having using dual yoke and pedals, is when i come to set the min and max ranges! Each of my hardware has different ranges

You need similar or identical hardware for good dual controls. Otherwise you'll either need to settle for the best compromise between the two OR do some manipulation of the ranges in the assignment lines, using airthmetic, before calibration.  See "Additional parameters to scale input axis values" on page 46 of the Advanced User's manual.

Anyway, you only have one set of pedals assigned. two yokes however.

Why are you submitting a different problem now and then, one at a time? Does a subsequent one replace all previous ones?

Hi pete i got help from someone on Prosim.

Basically my Rudder pedals are dual linked so i only assigned Captain rudder but only brakes for the FO.

I also assigned the FO yoke through P3D controls
