N8862V Posted November 19, 2018 Author Report Posted November 19, 2018 Hi Peter. Thanks for the reply. I have tried Aileron Trim Set and it does not work as you suggest. Dodo206 does not recognise aileron trim set! The program works well when using the Aileron trim centre in the fsx control panel but does not work within fsuipc!. Whereas all the fsx control items are replicated in Fsuipc "Aileron Trim Centre" is not in Fsuipc and there is my problem. All of my aircraft controls are though Fsuipc dodo206 has to be run via fsx control which is a shame. Brian

Please enable event logging, operate this control you are using for aileron trim centre, and show me the resulting log. I'm really curious. There is no such control listed, so I'm not sure what it is you are assigning to and I'd like to know! FSUIPC doesn't have a list of controls built in. the gets them all by reading the list in the flight sim. That way it always provides all of the controls which are actually possible. If it is a regular control of some sort then you will certainly be able to use FSUIPC to send it. We just need to know what is really is! Thanks, Pete
N8862V Posted November 20, 2018 Author Report Posted November 20, 2018 Hi Peter. I am not sure what log you are asking for so I have attached a copy of the fsuipc 4 log file. If this is not what you need please let me know. I have just flown this helicopter on Fsx and confirm that while fsuipc is set up in ‘buttons’ to use aileron trim set 0, this does not do what aileron trim centre does using the standard program and works perfectly in the simulation. Unusually from my point of view, my experience so far has been every button that Fsx has, is available within fsuipc except for this one which is available in Fxs but not in fsuipc. Copy of fsuipc .log is attached. ********* FSUIPC4, Version 4.974 (24th February 2018) by Pete Dowson ********* Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit with SP 1.0 reported as Build 7601 (OS 6.1) fsx.exe version = 10.0.61637.0 Reading options from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules\FSUIPC4.ini" Running inside FSX on Windows 7 Module base=5A710000 User Name="brian barber" User Addr="bgbarber@tiscali.co.uk" FSUIPC4 Key is provided WIDEFS7 not user registered, or expired 0 System time = 20/11/2018 18:48:49 0 FLT path = "C:\Users\FSX\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files\" 0 ------ Module Version Check ------ 0 acontain.dll: 10.0.61637.0 0 api.dll: 10.0.61637.0 0 controls.dll: 10.0.61637.0 0 fs-traffic.dll: 10.0.61637.0 0 G3D.dll: 10.0.61637.0 0 language.dll: 10.0.61637.0 0 sim1.dll: 10.0.61637.0 0 visualfx.dll: 10.0.61637.0 0 weather.dll: 10.0.61637.0 0 window.dll: 10.0.61637.0 0 ---------------------------------- 702 Trying to connect to SimConnect Acc/SP2 Oct07 ... 764 FS path = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\" 1029 ---------------------- Joystick Device Scan ----------------------- 1029 Product= Top Gun Afterburner 1045 Manufacturer= THRUSTMASTER 1045 Vendor=044F, Product=B101 (Version 1.0) 1045 GUIDs returned for product: VID_044F&PID_B101: 1045 GUID= {2D072CD0-5E91-11E2-8001-444553540000} 1045 Details: Btns=8, POVs=(0, 0, 0, 0), Cal=x00000000, Max=R0,U0,V127,X127,Y127,Z255 1045 Product= CH PRO PEDALS USB 1045 Manufacturer= CH PRODUCTS 1045 Vendor=068E, Product=00F2 (Version 0.0) 1045 GUIDs returned for product: VID_068E&PID_00F2: 1045 GUID= {F27941E0-5F33-11E2-8001-444553540000} 1045 Details: Btns=0, POVs=(0, 0, 0, 0), Cal=x00000000, Max=R0,U0,V0,X255,Y255,Z255 1045 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1045 Device acquired for use: 1045 Joystick ID = 0 (Registry okay) 1045 0=Top Gun Afterburner 1045 0.GUID={2D072CD0-5E91-11E2-8001-444553540000} 1045 Device acquired for use: 1045 Joystick ID = 1 (Registry okay) 1045 1=CH PRO PEDALS USB 1045 1.GUID={F27941E0-5F33-11E2-8001-444553540000} 1045 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1123 LogOptions=00000000 00000001 1138 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1138 ------ Setting the hooks and direct calls into the simulator ------ 1138 --- CONTROLS timer memory location obtained ok 1138 --- SIM1 Frictions access gained 1138 --- FS Controls Table located ok 1138 --- Installed Mouse Macro hooks ok. 1138 --- Wind smoothing fix is fully installed 1138 --- G3D.DLL fix attempt installed ok 1138 --- SimConnect intercept for texts and menus option is off 1138 --- All links checked okay 1138 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1138 SimConnect_Open succeeded: waiting to check version okay 1138 Trying to use SimConnect Acc/SP2 Oct07 1138 Opened separate AI Traffic client okay 6770 Running in "Microsoft Flight Simulator X", Version: 10.0.61637.0 (SimConnect: 10.0.61259.0) 6770 Initialising SimConnect data requests now 6770 FSUIPC Menu entry added 6801 c:\users\fsx\documents\flight simulator x files\206 gat.FLT 6801 C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\SimObjects\Rotorcraft\DodoSim_206_FSX_HighSkid\DodoSim206FSX_Highskid.AIR 19968 User Aircraft ID 1 supplied, now being used 20061 Aircraft loaded: running normally now ... 20124 System time = 20/11/2018 18:49:10, Simulator time = 18:48:53 (18:48Z) 20139 Aircraft="Dodosim 206 FSX GDSIM H" 59467 Starting everything now ... 60809 Advanced Weather Interface Enabled 82883 Weather Mode now = Theme 763344 Sim stopped: average frame rate for last 586 secs = 70.0 fps 763344 Max AI traffic was 0 aircraft 1094955 Sim stopped: average frame rate for last 224 secs = 65.3 fps 1094955 Max AI traffic was 0 aircraft 1134829 === Closing session: waiting for DLLStop to be called ... 1143893 === DLLStop called ... 1143893 === Closing external processes we started ... 1144891 === About to kill any Lua plug-ins still running ... 1145047 === Closing global Lua thread 1146045 === About to kill my timers ... 1146233 === Restoring window procs ... 1146233 === Unloading libraries ... 1146233 === stopping other threads ... 1146233 === ...

This appears to be pretty much a repeat of things we've already been over! Please review the previous messages in this thread. "Aileron Trim Set" is an axis control, not a normal button control assignable to buttons or keys in FSX. It is used by those who use joystick or specialist controls with suitable axes for such trims (some aircraft, notable airliners, have aileron and rudder trim adjustmets as well as the usual elevator trim). Pete
rcbarend Posted November 21, 2018 Report Posted November 21, 2018 Hi Pete, Allow me to make some comment here (since I made a few gauge applications using the FSX "aileron trim axis") The "aileron trim axis" is a very peculiar "axis" in FSX, and not properly documented in the SDK. Unlike any other axis in FSX, it doesn't take the usual value range of -16384, 0, to +16384, but a discrete value from -100 to + 100 … So: in percent. Meaning that writing 50 as value for the event AILERON_TRIM_SET results in the "axis" being set to 50 percent left-trim. Likewise, each event AILERON_TRIM_LEFT or AILERON_TRIM_RIGHT, changes the "axis" value with exactly 1 percent between -100 and +100. Yes, FSX has NO event AILERON_TRIM_CENTER, though suggested by the text "Aileron trim center" in the FSX Controls menu. If you assign a key/button to the descriptive text "Aileron trim center" in the FSX Controls menu, it generates an event AILERON_TRIM_SET with value 0. So sets the Aileron Trim "axis" to zero (== centers it). This explains why Brian has "aileron trim center" working properly when he assigns a key/button to it via the FSX key/button Controls menu. I think (but I'm guessing here) that the problem is that in the FSUIPC userinterface, you cannot assign the "axis" event AILERON_TRIM_SET to a key or button. Hope this helps …. Best regards, Rob Barendregt

Actually you can. You just need to supply the value as parameter. This is what I did suggest, but I can only think the OP made an error, because if that is what the "centre" control is sending, as i surmised (but wanted proof via the Logging), then it should (must) operate identically. In FSUIPC you can also assign button\key type events to axes, but in this case you have to do it on the right-hand side, assigning the events to points, or rather ranges, of the axis movement. That's often used for Gear levers, for instance, via Gear Up and Gear Down controls. Thanks, Pete
N8862V Posted November 21, 2018 Author Report Posted November 21, 2018 When the appropriate key on the joystick which is programed to Aileron trim set,0, log indicates 66731 parameter 0. When I press the keyboard key that I have set within FSX to select Aileron trim centre the log says Key not programed. In all cases the enable controllers is not clicked. Is there anyway I can see what FSX see's when I select Aileron trim centre? Brian

Pete Dowson Posted November 21, 2018 Report Posted November 21, 2018 6 minutes ago, N8862V said: Hope this gets to you Yes, but the axis event logging doesn't appear to be enabled. I can't check for sure because for some reason you started a "New Log". Please do not do that -- the log then doesn't contain essential information logged at the beginning. The log does show that either the aircraft you are using has a bug where it sends a PANEL_ID_OPEN control once every second, or you have some button programmed for that stuck somehow and repeating -- though in that case I would expect a faster repeat. The log entry you are referring to saying 66731.0 is merely the parameter from your INI file for the button you assigned. That is logged because you enabled Button/Key logging. Pete
N8862V Posted November 22, 2018 Author Report Posted November 22, 2018 Hi Peter. I have clicked all three items under logging hoping this gives you what you require. I notice it has produced 2 log files that I have now sent you. Brian FSUIPC4.log FSUIPC4.1.log
Pete Dowson Posted November 22, 2018 Report Posted November 22, 2018 1 hour ago, N8862V said: I notice it has produced 2 log files It only makes the second one when you click the "NEW LOG" button. that simply preserves the log up until the time you click that button. If you recall, I specifically asked you NOT to click it! Anyway, the main log (the larger one, which continues from the other) contains: 158060 [Buttons.Dodosim 206 FSX GDSIM H] 9=R0,0,C66731,0 158060 Repeating flag set: bRef=0, Joy=0, Btn=0 (RepeatDelayCtr=1) 158060 FS Control Sent: Ctrl=66731, Param=0 So your button, programmed in FSUIPC, is correctly sending the Aileron Trim Set control with parameter 0. You must be pressing it lots of times, or holding it down for some reason. You have programmed it to repeat -- why? Why would you was a trim reset button to repeeatedly reset the trim over and over? Unfortunately there is no entry for you pressing any key, whether assigned in the sim or not. So there is nothing for me to check why control 66731 doesn't work for you whilst your key assignment does. You don't appear to have Button/Key logging enabled at all -- only one logging option is enabled in fact. Pete
N8862V Posted November 22, 2018 Author Report Posted November 22, 2018 Hi Pete. Thanks for your efforts. I have looked at my posts to you and have become confused. My problem is as follows. The simulation I am running is Dodosim’s helicopter 206. In its manual it requires a key board setting under fsx using Settings-Controls-Buttons and Keys called “Aileron trim centre” within fsx and I have used a button on my joystick to operate that button in the settings. This has worked well for over a year. Just recently I decided to transfer the 206 controls to Fsuipc and deselect the fsx settings, as I do for all my aircraft controls. All functions were setup and calibrated in fsuipc except there was no ability to attach a button within fsuipc for the “aileron trim centre” because fsuipc does not have a function for that fsx selection. From posts within the forum I was given the impression that I was to use a fsuipc button function called “Aileron trim set,0” and that would do what fsx “aileron trim centre” would do within fsx, however it does not. All I have been trying to find out is what function in fsuipc will replace the fsx setting above as advocated by dodoism using “aileron trim centre” in fsx settings buttons and keys. Sorry for all the trouble. Brian

Please don't keep repeating all that. As I explained, I am trying to find out WHAT control your "aileron trim centre" uses in FSX. There is no such control listed in the standard list of controls installed by FSX or P3D. Another contributor in this thread said it sent aileron trim set" with a parameter of 0, which is why I suggested assigning to that in FSUIPC. However you found that was not working. SO, I was trying to get you to do some logging in FSUIPC so I could identify what exactly FSX was doing when you used that FSX assignment. Unfortunately, for reasons I don't understand, you never bothered to follow my instructions to generate the correct logging, so i am none the wiser! I cannot help you without the proper information. [LATER] I was going to post just the above when I thought I'd find a way to end this thread one way or the other. So I re-installed FSX (actually it's FSX-SE, which has the same contrls but is a big improvement over FSX which I no longer have). I have actually not used FSX or even FSX-SE for a long time now. The Aileron Trim (Centrer) control in FSX-SE (for that is how it is shown) works, but does NOT use any assignable control in FSUIPC. It appears to work internally somehow. The Aileron Trim Set assigned in FSUIPC, with parameter 0 also works, at least in all the aircraft I have which supports such. I do not have anything by Dodosim. I can only think that your Dodosim aircraft implements its aileron trim in a different way, not relying on the standard controls which are evidently not used by FSX for Aileron Trim (Centre). So the only way you can assign to a button in FSUIPC is to retain your FSX-assigned keypress for Aileron Trim (Centre) and simply assign the button to that keypress. You don't need to re-enable controllers in FSX to do this. Okay? Pete

It appears to work internally somehow. Hi Pete, Maybe my remark below on the FSUIPC.log explains something …. This is with FSX-Accel and FSUIPC4 not-registered. What I did: In the FSX Controls menu, I assigned a key CTRL+SHIFT+M to the function described in the menu as "Aileron trim (center)". I also made a small XML test gauge, that generates some axis events; including writing AILERON_TRIM_SET with a value 10 This is what the FSUIPC log shows (with event and axis logging enabled): // This is the result of me pressing the CTRL-SHIFT-M key: 150844 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 66731 (0x000104ab), Param= 0 (0x00000000) AILERON_TRIM_SET // This is the result of the axis event writes in my gauge: 152516 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 66731 (0x000104ab), Param= 10 (0x0000000a) AILERON_TRIM_SET 152516 *** AXIS: Cntrl= 65697 (0x000100a1), Param= 20 (0x00000014) THROTTLE_SET 152516 *** AXIS: Cntrl= 65694 (0x0001009e), Param= 30 (0x0000001e) ELEVATOR_SET 152516 *** AXIS: Cntrl= 65695 (0x0001009f), Param= 40 (0x00000028) AILERON_SET 152516 *** AXIS: Cntrl= 65696 (0x000100a0), Param= 50 (0x00000032) RUDDER_SET All as I expected. But what strikes me as odd, is that in the log AILERON_TRIM_SET is named "EVENT" and all other axis writes are named "AXIS". Best regards, Rob

Actually, that's a good spot. It's an error. I only differentiate between the two by checking the control number value -- axes are checked. But that number is missing from that check!

But there are a number which are continuous, like heading set and altitude set, though those have more specific limits than definble as "Max" and "Min". I guess what i should be defining as Axes for logging purposes are those I provide calibration for. And that does include the Main control trims. Elevator, Aileron, Rudder. And I missed those last two. I'll revise the function making the choice to use the same list I use for calibration enabling instead. Thanks! Pete

Pete Hi Pete, I suspected something like that ...LoL I tested this with another aircraft then the OP (I don't have that either). As said in a previous post, AILERON_TRIM is a very unique axis function; very peculiar, like the FLAPS axis. It's not a normal "axis" (you can't assign a controller lever/wheel to it via the FS menu), and with the event AILERON_TRIM_SET you can only set 201 integer values (-100 to +100) for this "axis". In FSX (don't know about FS9) upto P3Dv4.3. In case you wonder: I'm using the AileronTrim axis as "proxy" in a few applications, to control an Lvar with keys/buttons. The charm of it being, that it has 201 discrete values (either via the SET, LEFT or RIGHT events) and that there's no "control acceleration" for it .. Glad my input helped pinpointing the problem.

In FSX (don't know about FS9) upto P3Dv4.3. Hmm. Something is scalng it when assigned as an axis in FSUIPC then. I have both rudder trim and aileron trims in my 737 cockpit, calibrated through FSUIPC, and with the ProSim 737 they both seem to work quite normally. Of course I've never tried extreme positions away from centre, but even so, the normal increment on the type of pot in use in my PFC cockpit only gives about 128 unique positions over the -16k to +16k range, so just a slight movement would exceed the 100. Yet the trim works fine. Next tme I have the cockpit running I'll do some monitoring of the values and see what is going on there. Pete
N8862V Posted November 23, 2018 Author Report Posted November 23, 2018 Hi Pete I am looking at your posts with rcbarend with interest. I am sorry for any inconvenience I seem to have caused. Would it be of any use to let you have a copy of dodo206 for investigative purposes? Brian
