January 29, 201214 yr Good morning FredDid you see my past later on in the evening that I posted. Just a few faults but maybe you can help with this.Thx Ian Edited January 29, 201214 yr by ICMC Ian C. McCulloch 'What would one do without Malt Whisky? Slainte Mhath' It only can get better
January 29, 201214 yr Ian,Noticed your post.Strange indeed as this is something that is handled by the LUA file.Probably a call would indeed be best as we can trace the switch from sioc to fsuipc now.When would a convient time be for you?

January 29, 201214 yr Hi FredThx for that. Need to check what the intentions are today. Maybe I get away with it doing it nowwill contact you via Skype if OK. Other then that it would need to be early evening today.Thx Ian Ian C. McCulloch 'What would one do without Malt Whisky? Slainte Mhath' It only can get better
January 29, 201214 yr Hi Fred.If you come back to this thread, I will be available for a skype call any time today. I have sent you a request for skype contact. My skype name is gary.bussGary Gary Buss
January 29, 201214 yr Roar,Checked with Ian and found we had to reload the script after fsx had started.I just tested loading the sioc after startup of fsx had completed and than it worked fine.Also found with Ian that cws B did not operate.Also had a skype call with gary (mind you i am no expert but still able to help).Gary needs to upgrade to latest sioc to be able to run sioc monitor to investigate furtherAgain thanks for your ssi.

January 29, 201214 yr Author Commercial Member HI,Opencockpit MCP script for PMDG 737 NGX is now updated.What is fixed?1. VORLOC Led on OP MCP didn't light up when selected.2. VERT SPEED selector on OP MCP gave DN instead of UP changes to NGX3. CWSB didn't functionAll issues have been solved in the LUA file.A new LUA file can be downloaded here: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B0yCO5zfcmmENzI4YTYyMTItMTNkZi00MzAzLTliNmMtNjU5MmRiNmQ1NzliGo to the right on the Google doc page and download the updated LUA!!The version number is the same so you don't need to do anything else than replace the old LUA file with this one in FSXModules folder.A new updated version of Opencockpit EFIS script ( both ssi and LUA file) will be release in a day or 2.Happy autopiloting!

January 29, 201214 yr All,On behalf of gary please help.I have tried to figure out the problem with Gary's config but was not able to fix it.Here is what we have foundSIOC is working fine. The NGXMPC_PP_2.02.ssi loads correctly in sioc 4.01 and sioc monitor shows all switches and dials operating properlyI have sent my (working) NGXMCP_202.lua but no luck.

January 29, 201214 yr Hi Roar.Firstly, I changed the value from 100 to 1000 in the last line of the lua file but still with no joy.Secondly, I have downloaded the latest version of FSUIPC 4.758 and started up FSX but the MPC still does not spring into life.My VHF, NAV and TCAS work in NGX with the old and existing scripts apart from the selector knob on the TCAS so I know that there is communication between SIOC and FSX. I know that Vista is not the ideal platform for FSX but at the time of purchasing the computer, Vista was the latest system at the time.Gary Gary Buss

January 29, 201214 yr Hi Roar.Fred will be getting back to you with a further update as we have just finished speaking. He sent me his FSUIPC.ini file and we tried that but still no good. I will send you my original ,ini file by PM in any case.Gary Gary Buss
January 29, 201214 yr Oke just the last update for today.As Ian mentioned it still isn't working but the LUA log now does not show the error message anymore. See below******** LUA: "NGXMCP_202" Log [from FSUIPC version 4.758] ********* 80684 System time = 29/01/2012 22:01:31, Simulator time = 11:44:49 (11:44Z) 80684 LUA: beginning "C:FSXModulesNGXMCP_202.lua" 770084 LUA: ended "C:FSXModulesNGXMCP_202.lua" 770084 System time = 29/01/2012 22:13:00, Simulator time = 11:44:53 (11:44Z)********* LUA execution terminated: Log Closed ****************** LUA: "NGXMCP_202" Log [from FSUIPC version 4.758] ********* 109934 System time = 29/01/2012 22:20:50, Simulator time = 11:44:49 (11:44Z) 109934 LUA: beginning "C:FSXModulesNGXMCP_202.lua"Just to be sure we rebooted the OS to have a complete clean retry. However everything looks fine in SIOC.We even tried with mine working FSUIPC4.ini but same keeps happening. No numbers on mcp and no switches operatingFSUIPC4 console log (keys and buttons and lua programming ticked on the logging page) does show the KEYUP and KEYDOWN presses but if any switch or dial is operated on the mcp there are no FS control sent messages in the fsuipc console log.Any hints?
