November 11, 20214 yr I have a similar problem, replaced the entries in the panel.cfg for the A2A PA28 They work ok, also included the gauge entry as follows beneath. I have the rxpGTN.xml in a folder as advised. I have the GTN in the VC and in a popup ok, but the 3d bexel knobs and buttons are inop... Any ideas please?

November 12, 20214 yr Thanks all. I've set up the bezel control knobs great using the methodology outlined above. No problems there. However, when I've duplicated that same process for the Milviz PC6 Porter, the GTN display itself is fine, but some of the controls go awry. For anyone using this you will need to comment out the existing gauge which seems to be conflicting.

November 12, 20214 yr @kevinfirth thank you for sharing this tip! Eventually you could use the same gauge## number too like this: [Vcockpit02] //gauge04=Console!console_GTN750_650, 0,0,1,1 gauge04=rxpGTN!f1vc,0,0,1,1 Ideally, aircraft vendor should favor implementing direct handling in the 3D model. I understand it is not always easy and it is time consuming to re-update older models that were released already for many months, but there are good reasons to do so nonetheless: 1) The RXP system is using true events, instead of an L:var. This permits capturing every single user interaction no matter how many times you repeat the action within a single gauge update loop (i.e. how many time you click or turn a knob in 1000/18 = 55ms) 2) The RXP system is conveniently dividing the input groups in terms of unit #1 and unit #2, regardless of the model. This permits implementing the set of controls in the 3D model once only, regardless if you offer a 430 or a 530 variation. 3) The RXP system is using the stock GPS events. This means the aircraft vendor only has to implement for example the 530 RXP events for each 530 buttons, and this will work as-is for both the RXP GNS and the stock GNS. 4) The RXP system is the only one which is supported for the foreseeable future. To make it easy for aircraft vendor, we're shipping a ready-made modeldef file with all the events ready to be used in the 3D model, which gets installed here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Reality XP\GNS Simulation\FltSim\modeldef (RealityXP GNS V2).xml Edited November 12, 20214 yr by RXP
