Need testers for 737 systems simulator software

[737NUT]

Will do, and thanks again for your time and effort!

Well i have another strange problem, when i run your program, if i use the pushback feature, i lose my capability to zoom in and out in ANY window with-in FSX. As soon as shut down Prosim 737 i can zoom in and out with no problems. Hope that explanation makes sense. If i don't use the pushback option i don't get this problem of loss of zoom.

I will look into this further, but as of now I would not know of anything that could cause this.

Sorry i didnt update, but it happens if i use shift-p on the keyboard as well. So i don't think it has anything to do with your software. Sorry to falsely blame it. I should know better than to place blame until i fully diagnose a problem.

That's no problem! It's often hard to diagnose problems with FS. Let me know when you need any other help.

Hi Marty, on the "failures" tab, when I check a box, before I can get my mouse to the box to set the altitude, the box unchecks itself. What might I be doing wrong. I have tried it with the autofailures on and off in the "situation" tab??

Hello,

The page updates itself whenever a failure occurs or disappears. This will indeed cancel any input you have made sofar, but this should be a rare situation. Autofailures, depending on the configuration, should only occur every few hours, so this is not likely to cause problems. Are you seeing any yellow failure boxes on the page?

Also, do you have hardware connected to the system? I wonder if it would be possible for you to run it without any hardware connected and see if the situation is different. There might be a switch giving failure reset information, causing the page to refresh.

Well I tried it here at work, with no hardware and it is fine. when I get home I will unplug everything (1 led64, 1phidget 8-servo and 5 Leo's x cards) ands I'll report back...

[ANDYSMITH]

Well you are right. I can leave the phidgets cards in but not the Leo's X cards. I have 3 total and tried them 1 by 1 and no good.


Hey I am curious, will the software keep my switch assignments if I move the cards and the whole prosim folder to another machine?

Andy

[metamarty]

Yes, you can move the software around. Everything is contained in the files in the folder. The only thing you need to be aware of is the identification of the hardware. Phidget cards have a fixed ID, so they can be moved around freely. For joystick cards, like the bodnars, the machine creates an ID when it is first detected. You might need to edit your config.xml to change the old ID to the new ID.

Could you send me your config.xml, so I can check which inputs are related to the cards? I think the problem is not the hardware but an input configured to use the hardware. I also have a possible fix. Can I mail you a current beta version?
