OCP4NGX with all PMDG 737NGX Variables and Events enabled in SIOC

[roarkr 104]

Hi,

 

After some months away from flightsim due to other activites I have now updated OCP4NGX for OpenCocpits users.

 

A new and updated OCP4NGX can be downloaded from www.flightsim4fun.com

 

What is new

 

1. The main program is now called OC4BA (OpenCockpits for Boeing Airplanes).

2. The version of OC4BA is v.1.0

3. OC4BA consists of the OCP4B7X7 Manager and the OCP4NGX sub programs

4. In addition there are several Sioc txt and ssi files for different configurations

a. All Sioc txt and ssi files are now in v1.08

5. All PMDG NGX’s Variables and Events are now available through a new improved and faster OCP4NGX.

6. In order for users to use any or all of these new vars and events in their cockpits, new Sioc scripts have to be written.

7. If you make a new Sioc script for other parts of the NGX cockpit, please share with other users. Send me your script and I will upload it to www.flightsim4fun.com

8. You can make new scripts and merge them with existing scripts for MCP, EFIS, CDU by naming all new scripts in config.sioc.ini before compilation. See also http://www.lekseecon...configsioc.html on how to compile single and multiple scripts.

9. The link between Sioc variables and PMDG NGX Vars and Events are documented in Var LIST for info.txt and Events LIST for info.txt in your airplane folder ( Click NGX in the OCP4NGX Manager window)

Thanks Roar.

 

The new OCP4NGX is an excellent piece of work. Your time and efforts are greatly appreciated.

Woo, and thanks from me too Roarkr , great news and on the same day as my new OC CDU arrived

 

And on the CDU subject .... I've got it all working (which is nice) and I've been tinkering with panel.cfg trying to get the CDU screen to position and size itself automagically beyond the top right of my screen to sit nicely in the hardware CDU screen.

I wonder if anyone who knows more about panel.cfg than I've managed to learn can help.

I'm at the stage I can drag a new 'panel/window' I created for it in panel.cfg by Undocking it and dragging it off the screen to the right spot, but it has a window frame around it because it's undocked, which I'd like to get rid of as it kinda gets in the way of aligning the prompts to the LSK/RSK buttons.

So I guess what I'm trying to do is create a docked window at 1921,0 which is just beyond the top right of my 1920,1080 monitor.

I also don't have the relative sizing of the new panel worked out yet as can be seen in my panel.cfg below but I think I can sort that out with many trial and errors.... it's just the getting it to 'dock' beyond my main screen and writing that in panel.cfg that has me stumped.

 

Thanks

John

John,

 

I am not at my flight sim computer at the moment but when I get to it later I will let you know what I have in my cfg. file. I have got it so I can right click on the main CDU screen in the sim and then drag to the OC CDU. I have to re-size but I do not have the frame.

Hi Roar

 

Great, I've tested the 15.02.2013 build and it's fixed both the missing dll error and the CDU is now working again as well, and very well I might add

So all is good for the Plug & Play MCP, EFIS and CDU that I have. The numbers on the MCP are fast and responsive now too, thats cool Your work has really made these Opencockpits addons perform superbly with the NGX, thanks again.

Thanks for the continued work, Roar!

 

I haven't gotten around to simming much lately, due to health issues, but I'll be sure to try this new version as soon as I feel upto it.

I hope someone will take it upon themselves to write scripts for the comm, nav, and tcas modules...

 

[edit] Cool, I see comm and nav are already supported!

[roarkr 104]

HI,

 

You this ( http://janvaane.org/...fsx/archives/34) small app and it will be easy to restore the CDU screen.

 

CBTextL.ini file is:

 

 

 

[window 1]

name=CDU (Left)

x=1921

y=-25

width=800

height=600

Hi,

 

 

A bug that prevented the ATARM light on the MCP to be turned on is corrected with a new

OCP4NGX_MCP_PP v1.08b.txt filet file. Compile it with the other PP files.

 

It will be included in the next update of OCP4NGX app.

Hi,

 

Sioc scripts for all PMDG SDK defined outputs and inputs can now be downloaded .

 

The scripts have only the PMDG SDK names linked to the correct variable number used in OCP4NGX. The user must make their own logic

when needed.

 

If you use these scripts be sure to delete those variables that you already have defined in other PMDG B737NGX sioc scripts before compiling.

The scripts use the origninal SDK naming. As Sioc don't accept long names you must also shorten the variable names you use.

What I do :

 

- I start sioc.exe

- I start OCP4NGX (version from 15/02/2013, after dll crash)

- I start FS with C172, then switch to the NGX

 

but i can't use my CDU with the NGX!

 

What I did wrong?

 

 

Sorry for my bad english!

[Orphee01 8]

And my 737NGX_Options.ini is set correctly

[Orphee01 8]

Great news! I found the problem, the CDU was set as a master, and not usb! but i have another problem, when i push a button, it will be "pressed" two times, when i press button "1", i have 11 on CDU, when i press LSK1, it will be pressed two times, etc. But sioc monitor indicate each button is pressed one time!

 

 

Any idea?

[Orphee01 8]

nobodys had the same issue?
