GoFlight EFIS and MCP PRO Partial Interface

Recommended Posts

I should have mentioned this in the readme. I'm about to release a new version that supports two EFIS (pilot and FO's) so I'll add a facility to disable that command if the user can put up with mouse pointer staying visible.Best wishesSteve

I have just uploaded a new version (0.03) of the LUA file. It will be available within the next 24 hrs I guess. It provides the following: -Added support for the FO's EFIS on a second GoFlight EFIS (thanks to Jim Blake for testing).-Fixed FO's MTRS bug-Added timer to update AT disarm/arm so that the light will go out if AT is automatically disarmed.-Added CANCELMOUSEKEY constant to enable/disable sending SPACE for cancelling mouse pointer display.-Fixed out of sync toggle switches and dials if set to ON when loading plane Best wishesSteve

Big thanks Steve, Hope they put out the SDK kit soon so we can get the rest of the displays working. Even as it is the unit seems to work better than it does with the Queen and the specific driver for it. A little touchy to get the altitude before zooming past it but nice because it does not take long to wind it down.

I've just had a look at the release log for fsuipc to check if the event timer function was added in a later version, but it only covers it from 4.70.Could you update to the latest version and try it again

Hopefully this gets to fully support the GoFlight MCP Pro and EFIS, I have both and have been an expensive investment.

PMDG have released details of the lvars that will be available in the next hotfix/sp1. This will allow my script to fully support the mcp pro with all displays and lights working. In fact I'm writing the code to do it this evening.Best wishesSteve
