I have recently answered several queries from owners of the original VRInsight MCP1 panel. They report that LINDA is not working with their MCP1 with advanced aircraft like the PMDG 737NGX and Aerosoft Airbus A318/A319/A320/A321.

The reason is twofold. First, the config-mcp.lua file has been generated from the default aircraft configuration for SPD/HDG/ALT and these are not suitable for more complicated aircraft like PDMG and Aerosoft products. You need to go through the specific module menu and assign functions specifically written for your aircraft. Second, because your MCP panel is no longer sold, neither I nor Guenselli, have this panel to create a specific config-lua.default file for MCP1 users.

However, I have been working on this problem. Using 2.9.x there is now a method of copying the MCP2 configuration to work with your MCP1 panel.

The procedure is as follows:

• Open LINDA and manually select PDMG737NGX or other aircraft from the dropdown.
• Go to Setup MCP.
• Select MCP2(Boeing) and save.
• Select the Combo MCP page.
• Click twice on the EFIS Mode 3 tick box at bottom (or make any other change) to highlight save button.
• Hold down CTRL key and click on SAVE. You will see a confirm message that MCP1 config-hid.lua file has been created.
• Go to Setup MCP and change back to MCP1 panel and save.
• Start your flight sim and load the above aircraft.
• Select FSXSync ON (orange box).
• You should now have functioning SPD/HDG/ALT knobs and buttons.

Please note that not all LINDA aircraft modules will have a config-mcp2.default file. The default aircraft supplied with your flt sim (eg. Beechcraft 58) will work with the default functions included in the default template  and the library LIB-FSX Default.

Resolved by following the above.

Thanks to all for assistance.

Apologies for the delayed response, as I have mainly been at work and not had chance to get back on to this issue.

Still have the same issue.

However, I have today realised that the comms section of my panel work fine.

The EFIS and MCP work in reverse. I.E. when I update the heading on my simulator with the mouse, my panel is updated, but when updating my panel, the simulator is not updated.

the link you sent is where i downloaded from. Interestingly, the error also shows up on the 747 module - but that works fine

Just tried installing the PMDG747 module and that worked instantly. So my problems all centre around the PMDG 737 module.

Tried the reinstall and registration of FSUIPC and did not fix the issue.

However, looking at the readme.txt file of the PMDG module i see this error.

Syntax error!
Line 2  '=' expected near 'Module'

Line 2 LINDA module is highlighted in red.

Thank you. All looks ok to me.

Im about to uninstall FSUIPC and reinstall as originally I installed an older version and updated to latest version. Then transferred registration.

Im doing a clean install and will register new one directly.

Thank you for referring the article. I had already seen this and unfortunately haven't been able to resolve my issue.

I'm at a complete loss and been trying for over a week now to get this sorted. LINDA has worked extremely well for me in the past and proved to be very stable and reliable.

"Check the selected aircraft module, when the ngx is selected, that the folder is named PMDG737NGX"

In reference to your suggestion above re: folder names - should I remove any spaces in folder name?

Yes all up to date and registered 

I started afresh by installing latest LINDA and latest module for PMDG 737. All indicators in LINDA show green and MCP panel loads and indicates Ready! But no connection

Hi All

Ive been running Prepar3d v 4.5.12 with LINDA successfully in the past, prior to a complete reinstall of Windows 10.

I have recently installed LINDA version 3.0.12.810 and PMDG 737 module version 4.12. I cannot get them to connect. FSX Default works fine.
