Hi Alan,
Would it be possible to set-up a "Master" indicator test switch like the real aircraft have? That way if we toggle the switch, all the assigned annunciators would light up that we have connected to either 0/16/16, LED64 etc. Just curious.
Thanks,
Rob

How about a way to link outputs so that these indicator lights would shut off when the battery switch is turned off? And on the flip side a way to light a master warning light if any of the outputs to a indicator light comes on?

I'm going to need it for my sim one of these days.
Won't find it in MS-FS.
Not something that would make sense to build into PMsystems.
Too close to hardware.
Added to my wish list for either 2.5 or 3.0.

Will after the New Year be OK?

Things like master warnings and "six pack" annunciator in B737 - what we're talking about is systems emulation.
I would keep a close eye on the folks at Project Magenta.

Again, I have to get this working for my sim.

Maybe we need an FS2Phidget Profesional version :)

Rob,

We've been doing this sim thing for almost the same period of time - we're almost family.
See this as a joint venture.
I write some software and you kind folks iron out the kinks.

Alan.

I agree Alan, but we need more personal Sim Fests to help each other along. Nothing big, just a couple of people, to get those tough issues ironed out.

I like the FS2 Professional idea :D

Matt,
What projector are you running and what kind of screen? I just got my new PJ today and can't figure out what type of screen to use.
