FsBus with FSUIPC

[Guest budman]

Hi all, newbie here! I have FS2004 installed, FSUIPC installed, FsBus installed. FSUIPC shows up in MODULES menu under FS2004, I have a registered key, all looks good. The FS2004 icon on FsBus never shows that it is talking with FSUIPC..... any ideas??Thanks for any help...Budman

However the registration gives you a lot of useful goodies in the config section that are useful for cockpit builders anyway, so it is worth it registering in any case.Tuomas

Yes, FS2004 is running, and I had tried it before I installed the registered key as well. I am really perplexed, since this does seem to be such a no-brainer to get this up and running. I program in C, VB, PHP, JAVA, and asm.....does anyone have a short code snippet or something I can run to try and get some data from FSUIPC to make sure that the dll is working correctly under WIN XP ? If so, then I can try and concentrate on what might be happening with FsBus....??Thanks again for any and all help.Budman>Hi all, newbie here!

Or you can download my "FSPanel" app from the file library - if FSUIPC is working right, it'll display an instrument panel with all the instruments functioning properly. If all the instruments are centered / zeroed then it's not connecting to FSUIPC.Richard

Hi all,Thanks very much for the help... When I get the chance this weekend I will try and check with those. In response to everyone offering me assistance, I would offer to help those that need it some time. I am pretty good with making pc boards, wiring, PICs, etc...just post or email.Budman
