Andnava Posted October 22, 2017 Report Share Posted October 22, 2017 Bin using my CH MFP with its own software to program diffrent buttones but not all are available, and i want to set up some mouse macros, but FSUIPC does not seem to recognize the buttons on the MFP when i push them, is there a way i can program them using FSUIPC and not the actual software. thanks andnava Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does Windows see it as a "game controller"? Does FS? FSUIPC only scans and uses joystick type devices (plua GoFlight buttons and switches, through their DLL). If it is a joystick type device it will appear in FSUIPC's joystick scan -- look at its Log file. Maybe it is a joystick type device but you still have its own CH driver running and that prevents its buttons being seen? Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andnava Posted October 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 The MFP is just a bunch of buttons that i can assign a comand (for ex. Button 1 > shift a ) if i dont load the software it wont even funcion but i will try and play around with it im not to knowladgable about programing and stuff but i will try, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even for FSUIPC to see them a Goflight-supplied DLL is needed,though you can program them directly using Lua plug-ins. Even your device can probably be programmed that way, you just need to do a bit of detective work to decode the data you receive. It is very unusual for a simply button device to have its own unique protocol so it has to have its maker's software. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 I just did a search on "CH MFP", and see this subject came up 9 years ago and was defnitively answered by Bob Church "Stickworks" who is the known expert of CH devices: Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
