I have an iocard.exe program and Airbus PmSystems software.
I'm trying to get both ENG1 and ENG2 switch to work, but no
success so far.
FOR ENG1: Variable name is ENG_CUTOFF , address is $561A but
lenght is a unknown. Should it be a bit?
Is switches page I have : Name is ENG1_ON, input for ON is 97 and
for OFF is 98, variable is ENG_CUTOFF and value_on/key and
value_off/key are unknown. Should I have 1 for ON and 0 for OFF there?
Can anybody help a "bit" here? Thanks!
Just to carry this question a bit further, in FSUIPC, what is the name of the function for :
Control-Shift-F4 (for fuel ON)
and
Control-Shift-F1 (for fuel OFF)
????
(Im trying to assign ONE toggle on my CH yoke where one direction is Fuel On and the other Direction is Fuel Off- not seperat engines YET)
thanks,
The easiest way to find out the names of any FS control is to use FSUIPC's Logging. Just enable Event logging (for non-axis controls, as in this case), then press your keypress (or operate your mouse control) and look in the FSUIPC log.Quote:

In those two cases, the answer is obvious in any case -- you could actually look up in FS's keyboard checklist and see that the Ctrl+Shift+F1 to F4 combinations are,by defalut, always allocated to the Mixture -- F1 is full off, F2 is decrement, F3 is increment and F4 is full on. They've been the default assignments now for as long as I can remember, at least as far back as FS95. ;-)

Thanks Pete, you are (as you know) right- they have been there for ages. However, Im dealing with a Jet, and wasnt aware that it would be listed under mixture as I was (mistakenly) thinking that would only apply to a prop engine aircraft.
Thanks again! AND, I will certainly try to remember the logging too :-)
It's the same with the DF727 too.
