Hardware CDU compatible with the NGX? tips wanted!
Heron1B replied to Nigge's topic in Hardware Controllers: Joysticks/Yokes | Throttle Quads | Rudder Pedals | Drivers etcOpenCockpit 438 (Euro) and Flight Deck Solutions 809 (Euro) I am sure both use a small LCD screen (VGA) whereby you unlock the NGX CDU panel in the sim and drag image to the screen. All activation LSK align with the image. I have the FDS version and cannot fault it. Both OpenCockpits and Flight Deck Solutions offer prompt delivery.

Outputs to FSUIPC
Hi Fredrik, Sorry for the late reply. Have you been to My Cockpit site www.mycockpit.org/? The guys there will guide you in the right direction with your cockpit build, they use Opencockpit. Simworld looks interesting, nice gear there, my overhead is Engravity. Contact Leo for info on leds or go here for product listing www.leobodnar.com/, or once again My Cockpit is the go. Cheers, Delf

What Scenery would you like in FSX?
Both YPPH Perth and YSSY Sydney Kingsford Smith. You will note these have not been attempted by FTX, I should imagine the main reason being they would be or are too complex, maybe the resulting high frames could a problem. YPPH would require YPEA RAAF Pearce to compliment each other being so close and almost overlapping airspace wise. So there is the challenge YPPH and YSSY, both busy ports for Qantas and Virgin downunder.

Outputs to FSUIPC
G'day Fredrik, All I use is Leo Bodnar's BX0836X boards [email protected] no soldering required, wire it in minutes to your overhead panel. BU0836X has USB connection to FSX/NGX, sim will see it as another Joystick. Next install LINDA, it has all the PMDG/NGX overhead switching macros ready for you to assign to your switches. Really simple. The price of the Bodnar board 49 GBP, email him at above addy or Google his site. You will find Linda freeware on AVSIM forums check for latest version with latest patch. Cheers, Delf

My apologies..........will not happen again.Derek

LINDA Console Error Message
O.K.The crash issue does not exist with other aircraft only NGX.Kept backup of the orig actions.lua file then emptied the contents of the active filw.......it is now EMPTY.Ran FSX with PMDG737NGX selected, opened FSUIPC with no crash, then went to Buttons and Switches page in FSUIPC which opened without trouble. Moved to the AXIS Assignment page with no problems. Finally clicked O.K. to exit FSUIPC with NO crash.So FSUIPC could be accessed without crash with that empty actions.lua filePete has the information about Lua memory usage and NGX module size, waiting to hear back from him.Regards,Derek

LINDA Console Error Message
Thanks Artem for the quick reponse.Did what you recommended and removed Run1=..Modules/linda.exe from the FSUIPC.ini folder. This has closed the auto starting with FSX. My overhead switches no longer function in PMDG737NGX these were all progammed in LINDA via BU0836X boards.FSX still crashes whenever I select FSUIPC in the PMDG model.Regards,Derek

LINDA Console Error Message
Hi Michel,Thanks for reply and suggestions.I have checked the device works under Windows, all is o.k. plus all three boards are o.k in LINDA. All overhead panel controls are functional. LINDA functions perfectly in the PMDG737NGX. I just cannot access FSUIPC with PMDG aircraft selected. If I go to any other aircraft then FSUIPC access is normal.Will wait for a reply from LINDA team.Thanks again,Derek

LINDA Console Error Message
LINDA Console.......... Error Message:[E] JoyGetDevCaps for Device 7 return error 165 [00000A5]The list starts at 7 goes through to and including Device 15. Total of 9This also appears in FSUIPC4.log which Pete Dowson is working on as it appears LINDA could be causing problems with FSUIPC. Whenever I attempt to open FSUIPC the sim (FSX) crashes. If I unplug the three BU0836X boards which carry the PMDG737NGX overhead LINDA switches and buttons inputs then FSUIPC returns to normal.Pete Dowson suggested I inform you of the above error warning. Linda is performing normally.Delf

Warning Horn NGX 800WL
Thanks guys will recheck TQ calibrations as you suggest.

Warning Horn NGX 800WL
Require some guidance here guys.With the aircraft in cold dark state with park brake on and wheel chocks inplace, I have this constant warning sound, same sound you get if you apply engine power with park brake selected. Everthing is shut down, no power to the aircraft. What is the cause and how do you stop it apart from the flight sim pause ("P").

CTD attempting to open FSUIPC
Thanks guys for the assistance, much appreciated.It would seem I can access FSUIPC in NGX whenever I have a fresh install of the progy (fresh .ini file), I can action any Misc items and even allocate features such as engine reversers via Buttons and Switches but soon as I create any Profiles in FSUIPC the problem arises with CTD.I do have the latest version of FSUIPC installed.I remember the release notes that came out with NGX advised us all that the beta test team did have problems with FSUIPC when used for flight controls in NGX, the fix was to delete the FSUIPC.ini file and allow it to create a fresh copy. I am sure PMDG and Pete Dowson would have had some discussion on the subject and maybe found a solution?Regards,

Validation
I have installed FSX previously with a successful online validation. To open the sim being a simple click on the FSX.exe to fly. My OS is Windows 7 64bit and the sim has it's own HD (D:\FSX).I decided to do a fresh install of the sim so followed the recommended steps, removed any addons such as aircraft, scenery and weather. Then uninstalled FSX SP2 followed FSX itself via Control Panel. Deleted any FSX files located in AppData under Microsoft etc. So my system was clean ready for a fresh install of FSX.Went through the normal process to install with disc 1 and 2 then actioned the online validation loading it up to the point where the main interface screen appears, closed down sim. Next installed SP1 and SP2 running the sim after each service pack.To my knowledge there has only ever been the need to run the online validation once following the initial installation, the sim would always open with a simple click of the FSX.exe.The problem I have now is the need to enter the key for online validation each time I select (click) the FSX.exe to open the sim. Is this something new that MS has introduced or would it suggest my OS has a problem within the Installshield folder causing errors during the installation of FSX.Would a fresh install of Win7 resolve the problem?Any advice would be appreciated.Derek (Delf) Froud
