Using CP Flight MCP with PMDG 737
Hey all,
I have the CP Flight MCP arriving on Tuesday - can't wait.
I noted all the instructions ready for the installation and set up but one area that is not well docuented on the CP site, is this stuff around moving "737kbd.ini" files around.
There is some mention on the web of needing to move these files wheras others talk about simply installing the MCPs drivers and (as long as you have left the PMDG's key commands as they are), having everything working in minutes.
Can anyone confirm what is actually necessary, the names of these 'keyboard ini' files and where they need to be moved to/from ?
Up to now, this is what I have picked up re: installation:
- Download "USB Drivers" from CP website to temp folder.
- Connect the MCP and switch it on.
- Install / Browse to the Drivers and install.
- Install FS_COM and MCP_CONF.
- Run MCP_CONF (to set preferences)
Then when running the MCP ......................... >
- Launch FS and the PMDG.
- Launch FS_COM.
I would really really appreciate it if anyone could confirm how the CP MCP is set up for the PMDG. (It's the newer, USB version)
I have downloaded the CP manual for this but it's badly out of date - it talks about the PMDG patches that I no are no longer used, and other parts are out of date, some download links for the software are even out of date but I found them luckily!).
Many thanks for any pointers!
