Hello,I wonder, is anybody using the hangstrom keyboard encoder with pic ?I am considering to use it but i have a few questions, perhaps somebody can inform me.Are the results good, can most of the overhead functions be used, like for startup ...Does the overhead or pedestral has to on screen to use it, i have noticed that when the main panel is closed, the gear don't work.Thanks,Marnix

Hi Marnix,See this thread in the Cockpit forum:http://ftp.avsim.com/cgi-bin/dcforum/dcboa...rum=DCForumID42Regards,KiekEHAMhomepage: http://home.planet.nl/~nwkaan/

and about your question on whether or not the pedestal must be on the screen, and so on:IMHO, anything you can do with the keyboard with respect to the PIC custom keys, can be done by the Hagstrom KE72 too. So you can just try anything you would like to be able to, before buying a KE72. Anything you cannot do with your keyboard while the window is not on the screen, can't be done by the KE72 either.Kiek
