bob barrell Posted May 24, 2021 Report Posted May 24, 2021 i have 3 rotary encoders for speed,, heading and altitude (fsuipc codes 0x07E2 for speed 0x07cc for heading 0x0704 for altitude) the problem i have is the set values the speed only goes from 990 to 10 the heading goes through 360 degrees and stops at 178 and the heading starts at 99900 feet, i have watched a youtube video for heading and it says on left -182 left fast -1820 on the right +182 and fast right +1820 they are working but not right thanks bob its the flybywire a320

Pete Dowson Posted May 26, 2021 Report Posted May 26, 2021 9 hours ago, bob barrell said: apart from the heading which would stop at -180 +180 all others were ok You are reading an UNSIGNED value as SIGNED! Just read as unsigned and you'll get 0-359. I don't know what the rest of your posting is supposed to show. It isn't a log I recognise, and makes no sense anyway. Why did you post it? You need to show us the FSUIPC INI file and the LOG as John requested. Pete
bob barrell Posted May 26, 2021 Author Report Posted May 26, 2021 could you explain what you mean by unsigned and signed and how i change it also ALT/F dosnt bring fsuipc control panel also there is no icon in the icon box i assume the ini file is in there
Pete Dowson Posted May 26, 2021 Report Posted May 26, 2021 8 minutes ago, bob barrell said: could you explain what you mean by unsigned A number stored in computer memory is represented by a number of bits ("binary digits") which are either 0 or 1. A byte is a collection of 8 bits and can store a numeric value from 0 to 255. In order to represent negative numbers one of those 8 bits is used as an indicator as to whether the number is above zero (positive) or below zero. This reduces the range to -128 to +127. But the bits look the same either way -- it is how you interpret the bits. Hence signed or unsigned. So something representing an angle like heading be seen as -180 to +179 or 0 to 359. 13 minutes ago, bob barrell said: and how i change it I don't know what you've done to get your numbers, so I cannot help. I'd need you to show me, as I said. What produced that weird log you showed before? 14 minutes ago, bob barrell said: i change it also ALT/F dosnt bring fsuipc control panel also there is no icon in the icon box i assume the ini file is in there If FSUIPC is running, then there's something wrong then. John will need to help you there. The INI file is next to FSUIPC7.EXE itself, in the folder you told the installer to install it into. If you don't remember where you put it and FSUIPC7 won't run then either do a search with Windows Explorer, or install it again and this time choose a folder you can remember. I create a folder called "FSUIPC7" to put it in. Pete

How are you reading and setting this value? You need to show us your FSUIPC ini and log files... As Pete says, we don't know where that log you posted came from or why you posted it - it is NOT from FSUIPC. 16 minutes ago, bob barrell said: also ALT/F dosnt bring fsuipc control panel also there is no icon in the icon box Are you sure FSUIPC is running? If there is no FSUIPC icon in your system tray then it is not running. 18 minutes ago, bob barrell said: i assume the ini file is in there Why do you assume - why not just look for it and show it to us. If you don't know where this is, you can use the File -> Open Installation Folder... menu entry. Of course, FSUIPC needs to be running to do this....
bob barrell Posted May 26, 2021 Author Report Posted May 26, 2021 fsuipc is running and connected and running sorry to be a pain but i am not a computer illiterate so everything has to be explain at basic level i got the codes etc from you tube heading offset 0x07cc bytes 2 set value $-182 left $+182 right altitude offset 0x07D4 bytes 4 set value if($>0,$-1997537,0if($>0,$-1997537,0 left if($>0,$+1997537,0 V/S offset 0x07F2 bytes 2 set value $-100 right and $+100 left i am using the fsuipc7 AP altitude value etc FSUIPC7.11.log

John Dowson Posted May 26, 2021 Report Posted May 26, 2021 Just now, bob barrell said: set value $-182 left $+182 right altitude offset 0x07D4 bytes 4 set value if($>0,$-1997537,0if($>0,$-1997537,0 left if($>0,$+1997537,0 V/S offset 0x07F2 bytes 2 set value $-100 right and $+100 left What is this? ....ok, you are using MobiFlight to access the offsets? Then you need to probably need MobiFlight support. If you are assigning in FSUIPC, we need to see your FSUIPC7.ini. The log you posted is also useless as it is a continuation log. Pease supply the full log file, and do not start a new/continuation log file. 5 minutes ago, bob barrell said: i got the codes etc from you tube Then maybe you should ask the person who posted that video. I have no idea what 'codes' you are talking about, sorry.
bob barrell Posted May 26, 2021 Author Report Posted May 26, 2021 sorry but where is the log file you want and i will send it i thought what i sent was a log file
John Dowson Posted May 26, 2021 Report Posted May 26, 2021 3 minutes ago, bob barrell said: sorry but where is the log file you want and i will send it i thought what i sent was a log file You posted your log file, but it was a continuation log file, i.e. you started a new log. I need to see the full log file, not a continuation log file. But, if you are assigning using MobiFlight, not FSUIPC, then you need MobiFlight support. If you are assigning in FSUIPC, I need also to see your FSUIPC7.ini file.
bob barrell Posted May 26, 2021 Author Report Posted May 26, 2021 there is another file which is to big to sent 4.8megs FSUIPC7_prev.log
John Dowson Posted May 26, 2021 Report Posted May 26, 2021 3 minutes ago, bob barrell said: there is another file which is to big to sent 4.8megs You can zip it. That log file you posted doesn't contain anything useful. But, as I said, if assigning in MobiFlight, you need MobiFlight support, not FSUIPC support. And if assigning in FSUIPC, I need to see your FSUIPC7.ini file as well as the log. So no point in posting the log file really at the moment. As Pete has said, it just looks like you are using the heading as a signed value when it should be unsigned. That shouldn't be too difficult to trace.... And I still don't know why you said Alt+F isn't working, and there is no FSUIPC icon in your system tray.... that log file you did post shows the Alt+F hot key is registered: Quote 265 Registered HotKey 'InvokeFSUIPCOptionsKey' (key=0x46, modifier=0x1)
bob barrell Posted May 26, 2021 Author Report Posted May 26, 2021 Ok will zip alt/f is working now thx
bob barrell Posted May 26, 2021 Author Report Posted May 26, 2021 i have enclosed the fsuipc log LAO I m uaing fsuipc offsets to configure controls FSUIPC7 (2).zip
John Dowson Posted May 27, 2021 Report Posted May 27, 2021 Why do you keep sending me useless logs? NEVER post me a continuation log. They are useless to me when investigating issues. I ALWAYS need to see a full log. And always with you latest FSUIPC7.ini file, as I have told you many times now. Also, when generating log files to investigate an issue, it is a good idea to try and remove all events that are continuously being logged (i.e. noise). To do this, use the DontLogThese ini parameter, in either your [General] or [Profile.<name>] sections. i.e. add this: DontLogThese=66065,67042

I have asked for this file many times. Have you actually read the User Guide? If not, please do so. I am not expecting you to be as knowledgeable as me in these matters, but I expect you to read my comments, and if you don't understand them ask for clarification (ie. "Sorry, I don't know what or where my FSUIPC7.ini file is - can you please explain?"). We can only progress with your issues if you read my comments and follow my advice. Please do that if you require further assistance. Lets go back to mt very first comment on your issue: On 5/25/2021 at 12:18 PM, John Dowson said: Please show me your FSUIPC7.ini file. Also, please activate logging for Buttons & Keys as well as Events and generate a short log file showing your issue, i.e. turn each of your encoders to show your issue, and attach the FSUIPC7.log file generated. Can you do that? If not, explain why and I can clarify. NB. If you cannot see the extensions of the files in your installation folder, you have windows explorer configured to "hide known file types". If this is the case, please see the Addendum in the Installation and Registration guide. Edited May 27, 2021 by John Dowson Further info added
