Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with VRInsight
Hello,
It is not compatible "out of the box". I do not have any hardware from them and they did not release any documentation on how to interface their hardware.
If someone has the info on how to use their hardware, it may be possible, but I do not have time to search for that right now.
Regards
JL

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with VRInsight
Many thanks for your reply. There is a tool called LINDA. Do you know about it? http://forum.avsim.net/topic/338310-...v111-released/ This is a interface software especially for the MCP Combo Panel. There are many user of this nice piece of hardware outhere. It would be amazing if you could get it compatible.
Many thanks

Hi Jeehell,
many thanks for your reply on this. Yes there is a tool available called LINDA for FSX (Google: Linda FSX) . Its an interface software.
Is that helpful for you to help us?

I need to look at the docs of LINDA to see what can be done, but no promises here...

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with VRInsight
Hi, Jeehell.
One thing should be mentioned here. The MCP Combo panel II Airbus is NOT compatible with Linda. So no chance here. Maybe in the future....
I was talking about the MCP Combo Panel I (old one), but the Panel II (Boeing) is compatible as well.
Your software is amazing - there is no doubt about that. But Airbus FCU Hardware is very expensive.
The VRI Combo panel is very good piece of hardware at a fair price.
My opinion is, if the mentioned panel would be compatible, much more people could enjoy your software.
You know, the combo panel is very often sold due to price and functionality.

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with VRInsight
Hi,
I fully understand your point of view, however this is still freeware development. If it takes me several hours/days to add a feature I will never use, it is not exactly fun for me. I haven't had the chance yet to look at LINDA docs, I will try to do that this week.
Cheers,
JL

Re: A320 FMGS Compatible with VRInsight
LINDA is a wrapper for assorted facilities in FSUIPC. VRi serial devices like the three MCP Combi panels they make can be programmed in FSUIPC, quite easily for inputs from switches etcetera, and via Lua plug-ins for displays. A document about this and a couple of small examples are installed in the FSUIPC Documents folder in the FS Modules folder. There's a lot of help available too via the VRi support forum.
