Hello,

Ok good to hear you can live with your current setup...
As for the range/mode change message, well yeah, it's just frustrating having to simulate a dinosaur era computer system
I'll add it to the list, but low priority...

Hi,
dinosaur? I guess Airbus is calling the system "modern" and "state of the art"

Well how would you call a set of more than 10 computers which can not instantly switch between ND modes when a single home computer can do it?

Hi JL,

here some more details about my freezing issue on my client:

client: 3GHZ Dualcore, low-end graphic card, 4gb ram

I run CPT PFD and ND on the client. Somestimes both PFD and ND stop working and freeze at the same time. However, I am still able to right click them. The widefmgs does not show any disconnects or anything ... but it stopped working and I can not right click. Any idea?

Have you checked the FuelFlow for the reversers? I am not 100% sure if this is a general software problem because I still have another issue with independent reverse thrust. I have not identified the problem but I assume it has something to do with my BU0836A axis controller for the homemade throttle. When in reverse, one lever works as a master in reverse range... so the other lever only opens the reverser flaps up to the level of the "master lever"... Really strange behaviour... if I use both (as usual) you dont notice it. Only if I want to operate them individually, you see that one won't work alone.

Looking forward for B26

Thanks & Regards,
Rob

Hi.
an easy question I think...
Windows Control Panel and FSUIPC see my USB joystic card with axis X (spoilers), Y (flaps) and Z (tiller) and react at their movements. Why JeeHell configuration doesn't see it, while at the same time it sees and calibrate my USB Sidestick?
Thanks a lot

Hi,

@Leonidas: good question, I do not know?? All USB joysticks I tested worked correctly, including joystick cards. Only known limitation is on joysticks with more than 6 axis... What brand is your joystick?


@Rob: Did you check the CPU usage of the software?
Haven't had time to check the reversers yet. PArticularly, single engine OPs are not a priority.

Regards,
JL

They're both from FDS. The card is: FDS-FC1 and has 8 axes

[jeehell]

These should work on the first 6 axis (X,Y,Z,R,U,V). Only the 7th and 8th are not recognized in case of 8 axis presence. Some people have been using two or more of these FDS-FC1 on a single computers without problems...

Unfortunatelly it doesn't work. I've tried all posibilites of the first 6 connectors. For a moment I saw 2 axis and I could see flaps and spoilers working in config and the EWD, but after a while ...nothing again.
Config software says ver. 25.1. Is it all right?
If I first configure these axis via FSUIPC in FS, will they work in JeeHell?
Thanks a lot...

Do you use a USB hub?
Also, did you try any other USB socket?
Sometimes USB peripherals act weirdly... You may want to clean windows USB port memory (search for USB cleaner).
I have used one FDS card, and it was not always behaving normally. Especially when changing the axis configuration, you need to un-plug it then re-plug it. Otherwise, the changes are not recognized and it does not work at all.

FSUIPC axis are not usable for now. I may add that later.
