Thanks, I think I understand. :smile:

So for the mode selector, I currently have for HDG: On Press: PMDG AP HDG Show For Rotary knob: On Press: PMDG AP Alt Inc

I noticed that. I already changed most assignments for the switch panel, it works just fine. For the multi panel, I just tested for the rotary knob, alt increase, and alt decrease. Both actually work now, but the problem arises if I switch to HDG or IAS for example, the rotary knob would still only increase or decrease the altitude. The multipanel still does not display the correct altitude numbers or IAS, HDG.

It's the Boeing 777 PMDG , 300 extension. It seems to sync yeah.

I'm having issues with the multipanel. It's not reading the in-game parameters and the rotary knob does not do anything at all. I'm just using LINDA, no Spad, no Saitek drivers.

Thanks. When I was looking at how to do those things, I found a couple of tutorials online. Especially for the Multi Panel, the videos instructed to use Spad for the rotary knob and then setting it up in FSUIPC, then finally in the FMC of the plane itself. It sounds quite difficult. But you said not to use Spad and also not use Saitek drivers. I will try that out.

Thanks Scot! That is very helpful indeed. How about the other panels? i.e. Radio Panel, Multi Panel, FIP? I especially had trouble with the Multi Panel as it did not seem to grab the AP values nor affect them in any way. I saw a pretty complex tutorial on Youtube where the rotary knob is programmed as an emulated joystick key. That was done in Spad though. That's probably why I'm confused.

Also, very curious about the rotary knob on the switch panel, the one responsible for the engine control. Really curious to see how people set it all up.

Hi all, I'm new to Linda. I am in the process of setting up Saitek's switch panel with Linda. While I was able to do the lights, gear, battery I was unable to find specific commands for certain switches: - Fuel Pump - De-Ice - Pitot Heat What should I set the above to? I found this list and it came in somewhat handy. http://www.fsgs.com/page/pmdg777 However that is for Spad.next and I would like to stick to Linda and regular Spad if possible. Thanks. If anyone has panel by panel configured state screenshots, please do share.

Wow, amazing, what mods are used here? I'm specifically interested about ground personel. Also, is the ground services an add-on?

The cockpit preparation procedure, is it a special script? Can anybody share?

Yes, that was the issue indeed. Once the engines are shut off, I can talk to mechanic. Thanks FS++! One last quick question. I know you can give cabin crew commands, like prepare for takeoff/landing, open cabin doors. Is there anything else they are supposed to be doing?

The engine shut down might actually do it, I'll try tomorrow and come back here to tell the results.

Thanks Gerald! I checked and the license is indeed in the right folder. MCE is installed in default directory and UAC has been disabled ever since I installed Windows. I always turn it off asap. The FSX executable is set to Run as Admin. A lot of MCE commands work, I can do a lot of stuff like checklists, most cockpit items but the flight deck to ground or mechanic don't seem to want to work

Thanks David, My speech is recognized by MCE because the words appear in red in the top left corner of the screen. I'm using FSX. Is the mechanic etc a part of FSX or X-Plane? Even though the speech is recognized, nothing follows for some odd reason. Thanks, Evgueni
