Hi all

Hi all

 

I'm new to Linda, like Selkin , i installed Flight Master Yoke, Saitek Rudder Pedals, MCP Combo II - Boeing MCP and MFD Cougar Pack for right MCDU. All worked fine except 2 shortages airbus module : missing MCDU2 LSK6R (RETURN button) and DOORS fron left open and close. Maybe it's a silly question ...

Anyway, great job guy's

 

Nicu

I solved the problem with missing MCDU2 LSK6R. With edite module i added :

 

function MCDU2_LSK6R ()

ipc.writeLvar("L:MCDU2_LSK6R", 1)

ASC_MCDU_CLICK ()

end

 

....and everything is perfect

 

Good week to all,

Nicu

Another bugfixing regarding rotaries.

It looks like AXE has a problem if you increase or decrease the HDG via LUA more than 4 degrees at HDGfast.

Hi! I have MCP combo2, but I cannot find any explanation what are the buttons for. Of course the most of them are easy to know, but others not.. and maybe are combination that I cannot achieve. Is there any "map instruction" of which buttons are operative and for what? In all Linda donwloads I never see that. Only a readme that says what is fixed.

My understanding of LINDA is not to provide a manual "how to use the specific buttons". LINDA provides most of the buttons and rotaries to access with your MCP.

 

Maybe you can post your specific question and the comunity will try to answer. ;O)

 

Another bugfixes:

 

function ALT_Step_toggle ()
   LVarSet = "L:AB_AP_ALTSTEP"
   if ipc.readLvar(LVarSet) == 0 then
    ALT_Step_1000 ()

   end
end
function ALT_Step_100 ()
   LVarSet = "L:AB_AP_ALTSTEP"
   ipc.writeLvar(LVarSet, 0)
   DspShow("Step"," 100")
end
function ALT_Step_1000 ()
   LVarSet = "L:AB_AP_ALTSTEP"
   ipc.writeLvar(LVarSet, 1)
   DspShow("Step"," 1000")
end

function ALT_plus ()
   if ipc.readLvar("L:AB_AP_ALTSTEP") == 0 then
    AddVar = 100
   else
    AddVar = 1000
   end
   LVarSet = "L:AB_AP_ALT_Select"
   LVarGet = ipc.readLvar(LVarSet)
   if LVarGet+AddVar < 49000 then
  ipc.writeLvar(LVarSet, LVarGet + AddVar)
   end
   AB_AP_ALT_show ()
end

function ALT_plusfast ()
LVarSet = "L:AB_AP_ALT_Select"
   LVarGet = ipc.readLvar(LVarSet)
   AddVar = 1000
   if LVarGet+AddVar < 49000 then
	    ipc.writeLvar(LVarSet, LVarGet + AddVar)
   end
   AB_AP_ALT_show ()
end
function ALT_minus ()
   if ipc.readLvar("L:AB_AP_ALTSTEP") == 0 then
    AddVar = 100
   else
    AddVar = 1000
   end
   LVarSet = "L:AB_AP_ALT_Select"
   LVarGet = ipc.readLvar(LVarSet)
   if LVarGet-AddVar > 100 then
  ipc.writeLvar(LVarSet, LVarGet - AddVar)
   end
   AB_AP_ALT_show ()
end
function ALT_minusfast ()
LVarSet = "L:AB_AP_ALT_Select"
   LVarGet = ipc.readLvar(LVarSet)
   AddVar = 1000
   if LVarGet+AddVar > 1000 then
	    ipc.writeLvar(LVarSet, LVarGet - AddVar)
   end
   AB_AP_ALT_show ()
end

 

I've added the "Step 100 - 1000" rotary. And the ALT rotary now listen to the position of this switch.

 

I hope to past all changes into a new version tomorrow. ;O)

 

Happy landings,

pero

yes.. but where I have to post.. if this is the Airbus area? I saw how the 3 programable buttons changed something between flight and ground (but didn't understand any change it made). Also the first 2 on the lleft below "LCD contrast" label in combo2 controls the intensity of autobrake..

The only way to know what buttons do is just try and error. It would be fine to know what do some buttons. At least the specials. Not all, because normally the HDG- APP - ALT knobs etc.. do what they are supposed to do.

New Version 2.2 released!

Hello!

 

Please forgive me for asking such a simple question, but how can I get LINDA to recognize the new profile?

 

I added the files from the zip file, but LINDA says to me that the aircraft isn't recognized. Do I create new profiles (for each AXE variant) "based" on the the version that was included in the zip file?

 

Thank you so much for your help!

Hi Jarkko,

 

normaly it should work without creating a new profile for each variant of the AXE.

Please try:

 

1) make a backup of directorys "linda" and "linda-cfg"

2) delete directorys "linda\aircrafts\Aerosoft Airbus X\"

3) delete directorys "linda-cfg\aircrafts\Aerosoft Airbus X\"

4) download current version 2.3 from http://www.fs-linda....tended_V2_3.zip

5) copy both directorys back "linda" and "linda-cfg"

6) restart FSX and LINDA

7) make sure that the "FSX" button on left beside the "Aircraft Profile" Dropbox is green

 

If that does not work, load a default Aircraft from FSX and report, if LINDA switches to "*Default Aircraft" Profile.

Hello Pero,

 

Thank you for the help. I clearly did something wrong the last time around. I'll try again in a couple of days.

 

Thanks again!

Hello again!

 

Today I had time to test again and here's the message that I got:

 

[E] LUA.0:  ---> ERROR:: MCP configs not found for current aircraft!

 

Is this "normal" or am I doing something wrong?

 

Thank you for the help

 

EDIT: Clicking the FSX Sync button seemed to help.

Guys, unfortunately LINDA does not recognize GoFlight modules as HID devices, so I can not assign AXE functions to GoFlight rotaries and buttons via LINDA. On the other hand you have access to many of AXE internal functions via LINDA already. Is it somehow possible to translate LINDA calls to LUA scripts, that I could open and assign with FSUIPC? As you can see I have a vague idea about the details, but I know how to assign buttons with lua scripts and FSUIPC. So if you pointed me in the right direction, I would start digging from there.

 

Many thanks,

Dirk.

By now I have collected most of the LUA files needed for mapping my GoFlight buttons and rotaries to the buttons and rotaries on AXE's FCU in FSUIPC.

 

Please help me out with the last 2 lua files needed for VS increase and VS decrease.

 

Much thanks,

Dirk.
