    737NG1051 file

    Hi,

    Im using 737NG1051 file for pmSystems build 96 with Phidgets and with hardware ovh panel.
    I need some help please for following problems :

    1- Parking brake goes back to off (I set brake with "throttle" hardware);

    2- when switched into GRD position, each engine start without pushing the respective throttle lever;

    Do I also have to change any settings in FS2004 when using pmSystems ?

    Kind regards
    Tony

    Tony,

    Regarding the Parking Brake problem. You have to delete the assignment from the FS keys and then through FSUIPC send a keypress with the proper offset, I am using the ctrl+shift_. , be aware on the last PMsystems update the offset has changed, take a look at the sysvar.txt file.

    On the second part what do you exactly mean? You can start the engines without moving the fuel cutoff switch to run/idle?



    Hope this Helps
    Chris

    Hi Chris,

    Thx for your quick reply.

    1- I will try and come back later.

    2- Yes, when I switch to GRD on the OVH, the engines start without moving the fuel cutoff switch to idle.

    Kind regards
    Tony

    That's strange. Are you sure that the Fuel cutof switches are not in the run position? When I strart PM Systems the switches are to run and have to set them to cutoff. I am not using any hardware for the time being so I don't know what will happen then.

    Apparently my hardware (i.e the driver) is not compatible with the 737NG1051 spec file in as far as it cannot set an Offset with a pot e.g..
    When I use the default 737 file (with some changes) the problems that I had are practically solved.
    I would recommend to use the default file(s) when you ever connect hardware.

    Kind regards
    Tony

    Well not to disagree with you but we realy need to hear from Thomas on this as I am sure if it works in the "stock" file there must be a way to do it in Thomas's file. have you emailed him? Support@projectmagenta.com
