    Mycockpit.org encoder and offset 3110

    Hi I'm just wondering if I can use the offset 3110/3114 to send values from a
    encoder to a panel ( rotary knob). I'm using macros because the rotary knob has NO
    fs control param. So i use a macro knob1_up ( turn right) and knob1_down ( turn knob left).
    If possible how to proceed.
    do I use the turning circle of the encoder? and what do use for the param and what for the 3310.
    regards,
    henri

    Re: encoder and offset 3110

    Hello Henri.

    Offsets 3110/3114 are for sending FS controls. If your panel operation has no FS control equivalent, you can't use 3110/3114.

    The easiest method is to use the virtual joystick buttons at Offset 3340. Assign one for knob1_up and another for knob1_down, toggling them according to the direction of rotation of your encoder.

    Jim.

    Re: encoder and offset 3110

    Thanks Jim,
    is good 2 know. I thought 3110/3114 could be used for more. I've used the
    &H0D70,40 2 send the macro it self. it's working but I'm looking for more possibilities. What are the key codes for shift ctrl and alt again. I want to try a key send. sample ctrl + shift + h
    regards,
    henri
