November 27, 200322 yr Here we go again, more questions!Having discovered that FSBus seems to cater for PM software primarily, I would like to assume that other software like FreeFD and OpenGC (but especially FreeFD) are totally compatible? For instance, if I wanted my FreeFD ND to display airports, I would press the 'a' key, but only if the window was in focus. This presents problems if I also want to display the PFD in the same monitor and also wanted to be able to change things on there too. This means I would have to flip between both the PFD and ND windows before I could enter a command. There lies the problem.Now, am I correct in saying that the PM settings in FSBus can also change the display settings for the PFD and ND for me? I've not tried it yet as I'm awaiting delivery of the components required to make the boards. But before I embark on a lengthy building spree I'd like to know just what it is compatible with, or indeed how I can program in a few functions to get it to work.And more importantly, Why does my FreeFD EICAS program keep crashing every time I start it? I'm running XP Pro here, and tried backwards compatibility to no avail. Every other program works but this one! How odd... Any ideas why?Stay tuned for even more silly questions like this one :(
November 28, 200322 yr Hi Ceawlin No FSBus cannot directly talk to FreeFD via FSUIPC offsets like PM, It has been requested on the FreeFD bulliten board, so I would guess that DON may be planning support for it.Checkout the FreeFD Website.Glenn.
