Hello

translated by Google

I discover your utility, I like it a lot

I have however a problem with a function which is permanently sent via the HoneyComb Yoke

Here is a screenshot https://zupimages.net/viewer.php?id=20/36/nkdx.jpg

On the other hand, where can we find a list of controls accessible in FSUIPC7?

The offsetStatus-v0.1.ods document is no longer accessible on the download page.

Thank you

Have you assigned a button/switch on your HoneyComb yoke to Magneto Off?  If so, it looks like that button/switch is continually firing. Uoi can verify by activating logging for buttons & switches.

The latest version is always included in the downloadable zip file.

Only in the drop-down menus at the moment. The ones provided by MSFS are documented in the SDK (under SimConnect: status of sim events).

The controls list for FSX would be mostly applicable (available in the FSUIPC4 documentation pack - see the Download Links -> Documentation section for this).

Thank you for the info

I deleted the controls in MFSF2020

I will have to add them to FSUIPC

But only two positions are recognized in fsuipc
2 = PF, 30, C66023,1 - {MAGNETO_OFF} -
3 = PF, 31, C66024,1 - {MAGNETO_RIGHT} -

0 = PC, 22, C65758,1 - {FLAPS_INCR} -
1 = PC, 21, C65759,1 - {FLAPS_DECR} -
2 = PF, 30, C66023,1 - {MAGNETO_OFF} -
3 = PF, 31, C66024,1 - {MAGNETO_RIGHT} -
Add by hand
4 = PF, 32, C66025,1 - {MAGNETO_LEFT} -

How to take it?

Why "by hand"? Magneto Left is a valid control.

Turning the magneto in the C172 I see it uses the MAGNETO1_SET control, with parameters 0,1,2 for the various positions. You could try that.

I'm off now, I'll look into this in more detail tomorrow if you are still having issues.

my problem is that the left, both, start position is not recognized in fsuipc7
I'm not from Joy # XXX Btne # XXX
for these three positions

That's because Magneto left, both and start are outside of the 32-button range supported by the default assignment options.

You can have a look at my solution on how to handle all always-on toggle buttons (including all magneto positions) of the Alpha in FSUIPC:

Sorry, I didn't realise your issue was that the buttons are outside the usual 0-31 (32 buttons) limit. You will have to use virtual buttons to get these recognised, as given in the solution posted by @jaxx (thanks!).

I can't find the ing / start control selector

Do you mean 'engine start'? Have you tried the Magneto controls - or do you mean something else?

eng1 and eng2 the command is sent but the switches do not physically switch on the plane

What 'commands'? Which aircraft?

Hello
sorry I was not very precise in my request

A320Neo aircraft:

I try to map these controls

ing.PNG.ceb8183768660aaca25aa76ec3db563c.PNG


to start the engine I use the controls
TOGGLE_MASTER1 / Toggle Starter 1
TOGGLE_MASTER2 / Toggle Starter 2
is this correct?

the engines start to start but the switches ENG1 ENG2
does not tip over on the plane.

For the selector I use:
For the CRANK / Turbine Ignition Toggle function
For NORMAL / Toggle Master Ignition Switch
For the IGN / START function I cannot find the control in fsuipc

 

thank you

Well, activating those in the UI sends the TOGGLE_STARTER1 and TOGGLE_STARTER2 events. However, sending these via FSUIPC shows no movement. They do move with 'Engine Autostart' though.

Ok, so sounds like they are working but the visuals are not updated. You can report  this in the MSFS forums.

Yes, just tried these and they seem to work. In fact, the Turbine Ignition Toggle function seems to toggle between CRANK and NORMAL. However, turning that switch in the UI shows no events.

 No, neither can I!

I'll look into this more tomorrow and if I can't find anything I'll report to Asobo.

with Thrusmaster TPR the right brake is not recognized in FSUIPC

Do you mean that when you move the axis it is not registering the movement in the axes assignment panel? Does windows see the axis?
If when moving the axis FSUIPC is picking up another axis first, you can click the 'ignore' button which will temporarily ignore that axis until you close the dialog box.
I have had some reports of axis temporarily not being seen by FSUIPC. For other users, this seem to resolve itself with a restart (or maybe a reboot), so maybe try that.
If your problem persists, I'll need to see your .ini, .log and JoyScan.csv files (all located in the same folder as FSUIPC7). You could also try downloading nd running the HidScanner program (available from Download links -> Useful Additional Programs).

By the way, you seem to be using this thread for all your unrelated problems. This is not how the forum works and does not help other users who may have the same issues. For future reference, could you please
    - have one topic or thread per issue
    - give the thread a relevant title - 'problem and discovery FSUIPC' doesn't say anything about what your problem(s) is/are
    - always check the provided documentation and previously posted questions to see if your issue (and a solution) or similar has been posted before
    - provide any relevant files

Also, please see this sticky post in the main support forum

 

Thanks.
