SDK Gear-lever control ID ?

[lvedin 1]

Hello 🙂

I have tried the #define EVT_GEAR_LEVER (in file PMDG_NGX_SDK.h ) with parameters 0,1 and 2. Nothing happened.

The parking brake works with same method in FCUIPC so I assume the Gear lever ID is wrong or the parameters are wrong or PMDG does not support gear lever.

Anybody knowing regarding gear lever ?

I don't know if this helps, because I don't work directly from the SDK (wouldn't know how 😏).  I use Lua plug-ins that send ipc controls and/or Local Gauge Variables to the sim via FSUIPC.  Depending on which button is pressed, the ipc control sequences are gear unlock-up, gear unlock-off and gear unlock-down, which probably correspond to the parameters 0, 1 and 2 in the SDK but that's beyond me.  All I'm saying, is that it can be done and the PMDG NGX definitely supports gear lever commands.

I use information in this documents to configure some hardware functions with the NGX. Including a landing gear lever.

I have solved this. One shall use PMDG mouse-flag as parameters. I.e. refer corresponding mouse action in the VC.

Event ID: EVT_GEAR_LEVER (works for gear up, off and down)

Parameter: MOUSE_FLAG_RIGHTSINGLE (this works for gear up)
