ClaudioAcc Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 Hi at all, I am newbie. I and my father want automatizate the our throttle of Boeing 737. The problem is to automatizate the "Wheel Trim". I have found into FSUIPC SDK the list of offset usable. For the test I use FSX with FSUIPC version 4.70b and the last versione of pfcfsx.dll. After change the simulator with P3DV4, obviously I will have to change the dll. The offset that I want used is 3371 of 1 byte. Into FSUIPC into section "Logging" I have specified the offset 3371 with type U8 and display to FS Windows. The value is 240 and not 0 for off, 1 for up and 2 for down and if I move the "Wheel Trim" the value not move. Can anyone tell me where i'm wrong? Thanks Best Regard Claudio Accotardi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean to make a a MOUSE wheel operate the elevator trim? If so, FSUIPC provides such an option -- see the "Miscellanous" tab in the FSUIPC options. 24 minutes ago, ClaudioAcc said: For the test I use FSX with FSUIPC version 4.70b and the last versione of pfcfsx.dll. Version 4.70b is very much out of date. Please update to the latest version of FSUIPC4. We cannot support old versions. 24 minutes ago, ClaudioAcc said: The offset that I want used is 3371 of 1 byte. So you are trying to do what, exactly? I don't remember exactly what that offset represents, but it is just an indicator that the motorized trim wheel is operating. Do you have a PFC unit with motorized trim wheel? 24 minutes ago, ClaudioAcc said: I move the "Wheel Trim" the value not move. 3371 is to do with motor action, as it says. I'm not sire you moving the wheel is relevant. What exactly are you trying to do? If you can explain then perhaps i can help. but first download the current version of FSUIPC4 (see FSUIPC.COM) and install that. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaudioAcc Posted April 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 Dear Mr. Dowson, I guess I didn't explain myself well, I am sorry. We want move with a servo 360 degree the "Wheel Elevator Trim" and I have read this: 3370 4 Four single byte PFC driver “alive” counters: 3370 = COM port read thread alive and running 3371 = Elevator trim motor action (0=off, 1=up, 2=dn) 3372 = COM port write thread alive 3373 = Main FS chain alive N.B. without the mn FS chain running the other three aren’t maintained in any case, so mean nothing. We don't have Precision Flight Controls unit. We have homemade Elevator Trim Wheel Thanks in advance Best regards Claudio Accotardi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have homemade Elevator Trim Wheel So those values don't apply. They are set by the PFC driver which is specific to the PFC hardware unit with the motorized trim wheel.
