I wonder a bit about that

[VRInsight]x=Com3
there should be a number instead, normally "1" if you have no other VRInsight hardware.But without that, the Combo wouldn't even work and you get a red warning message with the console if so!The current LINDA version is 1.1 (but 1.1b should work anyway...but please install the right version just to be sure, please)LINDA 1.03 is not needed as it doesn't support Combo2, just Combo1So, all in all, I suggest that you download the latest version 1.1 again.Uninstall your current stuff completelly and install 1.1 freshly, please.After that, we will see, what happens...

Guenseli, with you on Linda 1.1MCP II Boeing Type v1.100Everthing working correctly.MCP Combo settings still shows x=Com3 " found, ok" (x=Com3 color is purple)FSUIPC config line is x=Com3, however, 1=Com3 also works with that line. Either line works without any changes. Thanks for your correcting information,Popi

Bill Taylor

GuenseliI opened Linda 1.1 and loaded the default Cessna 172. No buttons, switches or rotarys are working again. FUSIPC Confg is 1=Com3.The MCP Combo settings panel is [VRInsight] found , ok x=Com3 found, okThere are no error lines in the Linda Console.The MCP Combo shows the correct aircraft--PMDG 737NGX in the orange box.When I load FSX, the hardware changes to the second line "Select your Aircraft and FLY Now"."Fly" flashes quickly and then a get these two next lines "-- --- -oeing Type v1.100--1100 Your Air000ft 100 FLY No0"If I use the mouse and changes the ALT in the aircraft, say 5000, the 5000 number will appear on the hardware window; same with spd or hdg.I have a problem with the hardware? Don't know what to do next.Popi

Hi Bill,you say, you load the default Cessna, but the Combo shows the "right" aircraft PMDG NGX???If you have choosen the NGX, the Combo has to show the NGX loaded! :(

Guenter,You are correct. I forget that I switched the aircraft to NGX. I deleted and re-loaded the FSUIPC again and now Linda 1.1 is working correctly.This is going to be a fun program.Kindest regards,Bill Taylor

Bill Taylor
