VERTX DA62 & FSUIPC

[mattdee 3]

I know there is little in the way of forum discussion re this outstanding plane however I'll ask the question anyway. I'm trying to link my what would normally be my L & R prop levers to the L & R Fuel Selector Levers in the DA 62 via FSUIPC, but it appears there are no appropriate control option available in FSUIPC. Is this possible?

 

Thanks in advance

could you not use the Throttle1 and Throttle2, I've just tried that with 2 leavers on my ch yoke.

He's talking about the fuel levers, not the throttles.

Hello Josh, I assume those are using LUA which I'm completely unfamiliar with, but the commands that FSUIPC sees when manipulating these controls are 

  1297141 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 65962 (0x000101aa), Param= 20 (0x00000014) FUEL_SELECTOR_SET
(for left engine CROSSFEED position)

  1302141 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 65962 (0x000101aa), Param= 19 (0x00000013) FUEL_SELECTOR_SET
(for left engine ON position)

 1347797 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 65962 (0x000101aa), Param= 0 (0x00000000) FUEL_SELECTOR_SET
(for left engine OFF position) 

 1305922 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 66523 (0x000103db), Param= 20 (0x00000014) FUEL_SELECTOR_2_SET
(for right engine CROSSFEED position)

  1304703 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 66523 (0x000103db), Param= 19 (0x00000013) FUEL_SELECTOR_2_SET
(for right engine ON position)

  1349828 *** EVENT: Cntrl= 66523 (0x000103db), Param= 0 (0x00000000) FUEL_SELECTOR_2_SET
(for right engine OFF position)

Unfortunately, I can't figure out a way to assign those commands to an axis or button in FSUIPC.

Here is the LUA with a readme I don't know much about this stuff but the files below is what you need and also a link to another post with more info and his module. Hope this helps.

Thanks, that may be useful for myself as well as the OP. I'll have a look.

Edit, one more question, do you have this assigned to an axis in your setup? or to buttons?

Thanks
