  2. -800 is the exact same checklist as the -700 Regards, Chris
  3. Kevin, Message me your email Regards, Chris Alex, Yes that is the current one for -700 Regards, Chris
  4. I can get you check lists for SWA. Which ones you need?? The normal checklist you have is the most current one though. Regards, Chris
  5. Mark, I entered it wrong. But turns out its not the function I needed for making course and fine adjustments on a encoder in linda. Did this instead: function HDG_INC() HDG_INC_TIME = ipc.elapsedtime() if mcp_hdg_mode == 1 then if (HDG_INC_TIME - Hdg_inc) < 150 then local i for i = 1, 4 do ipc.control(70022, 16384) end else ipc.control(70022, 16384) end else NGX_AP_BANK_inc() end NGX_AP_HDG_show() Hdg_inc = HDG_INC_TIME end function HDG_DEC() HDG_DEC_TIME = ipc.elapsedtime() if mcp_hdg_mode == 1 then if (HDG_DEC_TIME - Hdg_dec) < 150 then local i for i = 1, 4 do ipc.control(70022, 8192) end else ipc.control(70022, 8192) end else NGX_AP_BANK_dec() end NGX_AP_HDG_show() Hdg_dec = HDG_DEC_TIME end Chris
  6. Mark, Thanks for the input. I believe it did say function event not found. Not at the house for a couple days so wont be able to check. But I will update after I look it over real carefully. Chris
  7. Hello everyone, Adding some stuff to a aircraft module and trying to use event.timer function from the event.lua. When I run linda it says event cannot be found. Any ideas why it is not finding the function from the event.lua. Thanks, Chris
  8. Hello everyone, I am trying to send values from SimConnect to a usb device. I would like to send some bool values for example MCP_annunFD[0] and CDU_annunEXEC[0] to the usb device to set some lights. I really dont know were to start. Im using PIC18f4550 and programming in C. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Chris
  9. NG has been in service since 1997. Dont recall one breaking up in the air due to third party frame parts. Maybe Airbus put this story out! Chris
  10. Exaclty, ACRAS has no direct control over anything, only a messaging system. Chris
  11. Believe it is 304 radial from SAN
  12. You can actually start the engine real life, on a -700 with both packs on. Takes a while, but the apu is very strong on the NG.
  13. Ok, so apparently you cannot stack images with masks over each other and put them in the same element header. they must each have a seperate element header. Works good now!
  14. Got overjoyed to quickly! The images show up as the are supposed too statically, but moving they are jumpy and disappear and reappear repeatedly. Not sure why.
  15. Figured it out! Had IMAGE_CONTAINS_MASK listed in the draw flags when I didnt need one. Chris
  16. Ok I have a problem trying to use 2 MAKE_SPRITE images over each other with each having a mask. Im making a HUD and the problem is with my attitude card and my horizon line which goes over the attitude card. One is always blocked by the other no matter which order I list them in. They both use the same exact mask image, but each MAKE_SPRITE image of course has its own mask, Is there a way to have both images use only one mask so the masks dont overlap each other and block the other one out? Thanks, Chris
  17. yea my tape range was 0-60 for one range and 61-450 for the other. I still ended up breaking the tape down to 0-60, 61-200, 201-300, 301-450 just to get better accuracy. When I left it at 61-450 I lost some accuracy at the end of the range. Chris
  18. Dai, That was it. Appreciate all you help. Those non-linearity tables are a lot easier in xml! But were is the challenge in that!!!
  19. Thanks again Dai, The big gotcha is what I have been trying to figure out. I will look at your code and try to figure it out and post an update. Thanks a lot for your help. Chris
  20. Thanks Dai So using your example would I have to use two different make moving for each range of speeds that have different linearity maybe using a if else logic? Or would I have to code it some other way? Sorry I am very new at this. Mostly did xml, just trying c code now. Appreciate all your help Chris
  21. Is it possible to use a non-linearity table with the MAKE_MOVING macro like you can with the MAKE_NEEDLE macro. I have a non-linear airspeed strip that moves on the x-plane using a mask. Thanks, Chris
  22. I have access to a QRH. What would you like to know out of it?
  23. That is amazing looking! Not to be picky but since we want the a/c 100% realistic, the stab trim wheel is not 90 degrees off like it should be.chris
