Hi there,

a few weeks ago a bought a MCDU Airbus (mounted and ready) from opencockpits.

it took me quite some time to get it working.
(tested on win7 and XPpro)

- s-video to composite >> don't forget to put the video card in PAL B
and be sure of the correct s-video to composite adapter you use.
- I had problems mixing ATI and NVidia cards.
- edit the sioc.cfg and add the USBKeys card.

USBKeys=0,22
- edit the (same) sioc.cfg and turn on IOCP client #0

[************** IOCP CLIENT MODULE #0 ***************]
IOCPclient0_disable=No
IOCPclient0_host=192.168.1.201
IOCPclient0_port=8090
- add these lines to youre active sioc file:
it does 2 things: it shows the keynr on the first display
and sends that keynr to IOCP.

Var 0001, name k, Link IOCP, Offset 5, Value 0 // test
{
IF &k > 0
{
&keynr = &k
}
}

Var 0010, name keys, Link USB_KEYS
{
&k = &keys
}

Var 0011, name keynr, Link IOCARD_DISPLAY, Digit 1, Numbers 2 // keynr
- Start VASFMC hit the CDU left button, goto mcdu menu/interfaces/
and turn on IOCP server
- Close the VASFMC app, and on windows 7 give youre self edit rights to:
vasfmc-2.0a9/cfg/iocp.cfg
- put this in youre iocp.cfg file:

- make iocp.cfg read only (only on win7 ?)

Now everything works I'll try to make new keys for the mcdu unit,
I would like to have the text in the center of the buttons.

*VASfmc is so cool, it was worth every minute ;)*
