Riccardo I will send you info in PM. I dont know anything about electronics too ... but you will see, it is relatively easy ... and very enjoyable to do it yourself.

Riccardo LINDA recognize up to 10 HID devices with buttons. The best for you is to build a simple panel with all the buttons you need and connect it with BU0836X cards from Leo Bodnar. I use that in place of my second keyboard for the 737 NGX. I will send you pics tonight when i am home ..

Riccardo, My apologies. I made a mistake (was wake up too early this morning ...) Voice Activated Command program i use dont work with PMDG NGX ... like HidMAcros ... It works with other add-on ...

Riccardo, Same problem here ... I like HidMacros a lot before using LINDA for the NGX. Have you thinck to use some Voice Activated Commands program ? I have no relation with but here is a link to one i use : http://www.dwvac.com/ ( The VAC system is a useful program which you use to issue commands to your flight simulator) (to the moderator : if it is a problem to link to other program in the forum, please delete my response) Lets look at it. It is not free (dont cost too much) but you can try it for 14 days. I hope it help you.

Hi Günter I begin to test the module today. I first read the functions and it is an incredible work. When i switch A/T ON or OFF it doesnt work for me. F/D ON or OFF works good. I look at the functions assigned and as i didnt find them in the QW146 module i suspect you use the lib:default fsx. The syntax of the assigned function is a little different like you can see in the pictures. With lib:default fsx syntax it works fine. I continue the tests ...

Hi Günter, Wouaw that is a lot of functions ... more than expected ... nice work ... thanck you so much ... Michel

... we love you Günter because you're the best ... and love requires patience ... :rolleyes:

You can add : - a software bug ask some delay to be corrected and the release date will be later ... Hopefully we are not on the 'SoftBus' forum ... B)

Nice to hear Günter ... ... i will check "tomorrow" if you uploaded the new module :lol: :lol: :lol:

Günter Have you made some tests now that SP2 works with Win 8 ? I hope i have made mistakes and that you can do far better than me Have a nice day

Hi Neal, I am sure some of us will be happy to develop module for other airplane ... the fact is that we dont own all of them ... and that it is not allways possible to interact with all the add-on (depend how it is programmed).

Hi Thorsten, Could you verify if you have the last version of FSUIPC module please ?

Günter Nice to ear ... and it seems to work with Windows 8 :rolleyes: ...

Hi, I have tried to make some work for this module to help but without succes until now. My test function with AP button dont work for example. And a lot of button dont return variable in the console. I hope i am wrong and that Günter with his experience will find more than me when W8 will be suported.

Guenter, As you can read in my post above it works basicaly without any customized module. I may be wrong but for me it is really something in Howard configuration that prevent the strobe light to work properly.

Hi Howard, I make a test to try to solve your problem. But i cannot simulate it. Strobe lights, nav lights, landing lights and panel lights works fine for me (ON and OFF) with basic FSX light library on the RealAir Legacy. I cannot help more then but if you want more tests i can do it.

Brian, Thank you for this incredible complete guide. It will helps a lot of us. Michel

Günter,I have been looking to my config and i am surprised to see i havent assigned the throttle levers in Linda ... but direct in FSX.(The button of the yoke and the throttle are assigned with Linda).So obviously i have not your problem ... may be it can be a workarround.

Hi EdYou have made a very good job.I try the same as you, but more simple.Look at this threadI thinck you have done it far more better and i am interrested with your Corel Draw file.Do you have also analog gauge (like APU EGT) functioning ?Thanks for sharing your experience.Michel

Hi Derek,Just for information, i use 2 BU0836X boards with the NGX without any problem.Have you checked if your device works under Windows before trying to start FSX ?After this test you can also start LINDA without FSX and check if all is OK with the 3 boards ?Michel

Hi DougFor the panel i only use wood (http://home.howstuff...com/plywood.htm) of 9 mm thick else for the front panel only 6 mm thick.The face itself is simply 2 printed sheet of paper i glue on the wood.It is the cheaper i find.If you need help for the box design i can send you the plan i made and the link to the free software to design it.For the display i use the VRinsight MCP Combo type 1. I first try simple switch and rotary encoder as i never made electronic hobby.I thinck that it is easy to add some led to have light on the panel but that will be a second version ....Michel

Hi,This is my little story of using LINDA and PMDG 737 NGX module (sorry for my bad english).Using the PMDG MD11 and finding all the LUA scripts of Günter in other forum, i was curious about LINDA when i discovered it 9 month ago in his beta version.In the same time i buy the MCP Combo (not knowing that LINDA will interface with it) to bring some relative cheap hardware in my simulation.Waiting the PMDG 737 NGX, i try to learn some basic about LUA and scripting.Hoppefully the MCP Combo is supported by LINDA.When we can buy the 737 the he first version of the module was very quick developped by Günter and it was very complete.Thank to the good work of Artem, we can use LINDA nearly without bugs (and these one were corrected very quick).Then i have in mind to buil a add-on for the MCP Combo with some function i want to simulate.I make a list of the functions with my old friend David from France and i try to develop some of them that were missing in the version 1.4.Günter corrected these one (thank you) and the version 1.5 was born.During the development time i buy the knobs and switchs and 2 BU0836X cards from Leo Bodnar.I tests them and make a CAD plan with labels.The result can be seen in the attached pictures.The switchs positions are random but all works fine. The assignation with LINDA take me 15 minutes only (the wiring take me hours).If anybody want more informations, please ask.I thank you Artem and Günter for their hard work. Without them i never made this simple panel.Michel

HiFor what i know the easiest way is to use LINDA. I am just curious why you dont use it to resolve your question ?

Hi,A lot of informations concerning PMDG 747 CDU keys and "mouse macro" here : LINKIt seems we have no luck.Michel
