Question for Artem

Featured Replies

Hi,This is not really a LINDA support question, but I hope I can use your expert knowledge about HID devices. I have borrowed an old cirrus yoke, and I can buy it if I want, but wanted to check it out first. I have some problems with some of the buttons:I wanted to use button 5 for trim down, and 4 for trim up, so I assigned Trim down to button 5 press and button 5 repeat. Likewise, I assigned trim up to button 4 press, and button 4 repeat. Button 4 works as expected, pushing and releasing it trims a little bit, holding it trims a lot.Button 5 however works only on the press, not on the repeat. The trim wheel kinda shakes when I just keep the button down, it does not rotate. I then tried to switch the buttons around, the trim assigned to button 5 still had problems. Next I tried assigning the buttons in FSUIPC instead of LINDA. The same thing happened. Here is a little log of first pressing and holding 5, then pressing and holding 4:

To my uninitiated eye it looks like both buttons repeat as they should, but still it did not work for one of the buttons in FSX. Can you see whats going wrong?I am wondering if I should buy this yoke or not. Helge

If you are testing this with the NGX then you will only be able to trim nose down a relatively short way, I believe I read that it was limited to 3.0 or something like that, if it is the NGX you are having issues with have you tried it with another aircraft?

Cheers, Andy.

I am trying with the default Cessna . I think there's no doubt there is some hardware issue as I can trim the other way if I switch the buttons around.

Hi Helge, I see a little diffrence in configurution for those buttons: [buttons] 4=R1,0,C65607,0[buttons] 5=R1,1,C65615,0 Not sure what does the second parameter means..Try to assign the same buttons directly in the FSX settings (not FSUIPC).. and may be you should try to assign faulty button to some other action, like landing light toggle to see if it will really toggle while you pressing the button.

Hi,the second parameter is the button number, so R1,0 is Repeat Joystick 1 , Button 0

With kind regards
