OK now !
Hello Peter,
just to let you know that installing the last GF modules, released last july, did the job.
Without a precise reason, I went on thinking that it was enough to keep FSUIPC updated ...
Thanks !Happy landings and always three greens !!

Er ... just one last thing ...
What's the way - if any - to drive the Systems from a GF T8/P8/RP48 by poking directly all PM Offsets (as in sysvars.txt) and not just those of the MCP, CDU and GC listed on the FSUIPC advanced user's guide ?
Happy landings and always three greens !!

You can set any offset, whether whole Bytes, Words (2-bytes), Dwords (4-bytes) or Doubles (64-bit floating point) using the appropriate "Offset XXXX Set" control. It is documented, and I think there are even examples in the User Guide.
You can clear and set individual bits using a mask as parameter and the "Offset XXXX Setbits" or "Offset XXXX Clrbits" controls.
Regards
Pete

Painful admission ...
... but I don't get to switch on and off the single bits (talking about button programming via FSUIPC user interface).
For setting bytes, I specify the hex code as the first parameter, and then the desired value (0, 1, 2 ...) in the other input box, and it works.
For single bits, I tried using Offset Byte Setbit (or Clrbit or ToggleBit), with the offset hex code (taken from PM sysvar.txt listing) as the first parameter and ... how about the second one (which, I guess, is the one related to the bit to be set/cleared/toggled) ?
Is it a mask that must be input ? In which format ?
This time I previously went to fetch the documentation, but reading top of page 35 of FSUIPC Advanced User Guide wasn't clear enough for a poor, untechnical, soul like mine ... alas !!!
Sorry, mr. Dowson ...
Happy landings and always three greens !!

Hi
The second number is just the value of the Bit, e.g.
Bit 0 = 1
Bit 1 = 2
Bit 2 = 4
Bit 3 = 8
Bit 4 = 16
Bit 5 = 32
Bit 6 = 64
Bit 7 = 128
So if you read in sysvar.txt
5628 .0 Batt1
5628 .1 Batt2
5678 .4 APUBleed
you use in FSUIPC for Byte SetBit / ClrBit
1/ Batt1
Offset 5628 and value 1
2/ Batt2
Offset 5628 and value 2
3/ APUBleed
Offset 5678 and value 16Regards
Thomas

Thanks Thomas !!!
I get it now !!!
This means that - using the intermediate values - you can set/clear/toggle more than one bit at a time ?
