Saitek Multipanel AP knobs

Recommended Posts

Hello! 

I use LINDA for a short time and have a Problem with the new A2A bonanza, but also on other aircrafts. 

When I assign the Autopilot knobs (Master, HDG, NAV....) I have to assign on push AND release the toggle function. But now the knob is pushed twice (on and off). When I assign only toggle on push nothing happens. 

Maybe I dont get a basic of linda? 

Thank you!

Hi Klaus

The LINDA implementation for the Saitek Multi Panel is designed around the Default FSX auto pilot functions. These may not work with more advanced aircraft like the A2A Bonanza. There is a way to get around this provided the aircraft correctly updates the default offset values. I do not have the Bonanza and am unable to verify exactly what I am about to say will work.

You need to go to the LINDA Setup page and disable (untick) the Saitek Panels checkbox. Also you need to ensure that all the Saitek Multi and Radio panels on Setup Joysticks page are enabled. You should then be able to assign the appropriate functions to the buttons you require in the Joysticks assignment page for each panel.

For a Push ON/Push OFF button you do need to use the _toggle function as you suggest. For Multi Panel mode switch you need to refer to the Release Notes Annex and use the SAI_MULTI_MODE_alt, _vs, _ias, etc functions.
