Great tutorial. I'm just waiting on all my parts to arrive to start building a FCU for my MSFS. I've been trying to figure out how to display the LED indicator when in Managed Mode and realised there are decimal points in the 7 segment displays, so i'm just going to use the decimal point.
Wouldn't it be a good idea to do this tutorial again, as MobiFlight saw various iterations of progress meanwhile? I mean, there are so many new features available so it might be very different now. Would it work for example with SimConnect/WASM only without FSUIPC? And, more to that, what about Mach? What do you think?
Just came across this tutorial very nice indeed! Can I ask, in the VALUE tab you put “if($=0,1,0)” may I ask which coding is that and where I can find more info in it?
Awesome stuff, I finally got my encoder panel working for the Mooney Ovation. I am new to all this so maybe I can add some observations. I noticed that the FSUIPC would show green at the bottom Mobiflight although FSUIPC was not connected to the sim so I thought my encoders were bad when they didn't work. Connecting FSUIPC within FSUIPC solved that right away. Mention in FAQ possibly. Loose connections were also an issue and making them more secure solved some issues I had also. If logging is on, encoders will lag badly and maybe mention that in the FAQ as I spent hours not realizing that. But I caught that in your forum answer to another user. If I over click or click too much around in Mobiflight settings etc., Mobiflight will start to hang and it takes 4 mins to edit a button and the programs becomes unresponsive until a computer reboot. This could also be due to the MEGA being a clone and not genuine. But this was the hardest problem because I had to reboot and restart the simulator about 30 times. Also, when in the InputConfigurationWizard, it will not let you exit or cancel out if you choose Set Value and decide you don't want to enter a value at the time and just want to exit out to do a calculation or look up the event chart. Occasionally, a few devices the last ones added would disappear on the next boot up even though they were loaded up onto the Mega Board. That seemed to have been fixed at this point. I assumed you didn't need to use the save function to save added devices. Not too sure why a couple of devices disappeared after loading and working. (Could be MEGA Clone Issue). All is working well now using MSFSEVENTS but I can't get the FSUPIC events to work at this time and will keep trying. I want some fast rotary assignment like like $+1820 for the heading bug as I find my self doing some 90 degree turns. I love sitting back with a glass of wine and flying the bug. I would like to get a CDI/LOC button event to go between GPS-Localizer and can't find it yet. I am running multi monitors so I need to click on the main monitor to change between CDI and Localizer with a keyboard short cut. Not important but convenient, I would like a Mooney Glareshield rotary event but I understand prof simmers have their own lighting built in physically. Overall, after all is working, 5 out of 5 stars for your program. Well done.
Hey man! Thanks for all the feedback. Please always use our github to provide details about issues or also ideas for new features: github.com/Mobiflight/MobiFlight-Connector
Hi, the process for HDG, ALT and VS is exactly like for SPD. You just have to change the event ids and parameters for either HDG, ALT and VS and create a new offset (for example 5301, 5302, etc.). All other steps are the same.
Wonderful tutorial. This is absolutely what I need as a complete beginner. Please keep them coming. One question. I completed the one button setup and it works fine, except for one small issue. When I'm in selected mode and I set a speed of say 200 knots, then shift to managed mode, works great, but when I switch back to selected mode the speed resets to 100 knots. Is it possible to get it back to wherever the speed was set to before going to manage mode? Store that speed in a variable and read from it when returning to selected perhaps? I know NOTHING about coding, so this is all Greek and Chinese jumbled up to me, but.. I was hoping there was a fix.. :) In any case, thank you so much, my little expansion box is already better from this! :)
Hello, how can I do with the variables AP1 and AP2 of the Airbus A320. If I press AP1 to turn it on, if I press it again it turns off, but if when it is turned on I press AP2 to turn off AP1 and turn on AP2 and vice versa. Thank you

7 segments display, wire Dupont soldered and and operation is unreliable. one test = ok , two more test = 7 segments switch off. If you have a solution ?
Hello I have another question I have set up my 7 segment displays for ALT and VS but there are not in real time so when I rotate the value in the simulator there are just getting applied when I push the button to confirm the value. Do u have a fix for that?
@@MobiFlight Offset Is 07D4 for ALT and 07F2 for VS. I mean that when I change the numbers from Altitude for example, from 2000 to 5000 I can not see the steps between 2000 and 5000 (in this case 3000 4000) and I can only see the number 5000 in the display when I have selected it and confirmed it in the sim
Buenas, con la última actualización de mobiflight, me ha dejado de funcionar las variables, las variables creadas toggle offset, 5300, pone un icono rojo, y dice no conexión con fsuipc, pero solo estos los offset, y ya no cambia a velocidad manager o selected, ni hdg ni altitud ni VS

You are very welcome
Just came across this tutorial very nice indeed! Can I ask, in the VALUE tab you put “if($=0,1,0)” may I ask which coding is that and where I can find more info in it?
it's using ncalc library - you find docs on github - google it
Thanks Sir!
Thanks for the tutorial. Could this video help you configure the Toliss A320 for X-plane 11?
no. Watch my X Plane video - that would be better

Hi, Could you make a video with the HDG, ALTITUDE and V / SPD.

Can u tell me which event Id is used for VS?

Hello, same problem, speed reset to 100kts what can y do ?
Dear sebastian , in order to use Mobiflight in any sim using FSUIPC is a must or can i use it without ??
for msfs2020 you don't need it anymore - for all other flight sims you still need the free unregistered version of FSUIPC
Thank you. This is amazing... Now... How to do this for Fenix A320 :D
Which Seven Segment Displays do you use ? I have the 2 * 3641AH on the small boards for use with arduino.
7 Segment Displays supported by MobiFlight are based o Max7219
20:37 2 button setup
Hello, how can I do with the variables AP1 and AP2 of the Airbus A320.

How to obtain led display brightness from Fenix?
have you checked the hubhop events?
@@MobiFlight Thx for your response. Yes, I think looked up hubhop. Fenix is hiding some parameters, as you know. Let me check again.
Good how can I know the value FSUIPC offset AP1 of the airbus A320 of flight simulator 2020. Thanks
These things actually work without FSUIPC now.
Hello I have another question I have set up my 7 segment displays for ALT and VS but there are not in real time so when I rotate the value in the simulator there are just getting applied when I push the button to confirm the value. Do u have a fix for that?
What do you mean with "push button to confirm the value" - is this in the A320? What offset are you using to get the values?
@@MobiFlight Offset Is 07D4 for ALT and 07F2 for VS.

puede ser que el modo offline este activado.
No, solo no funcionan las variables, los encoders funcionan y los Max 7219 también, solo las variables pone no conexión fsuipc. Gracias

I get as far as setting the input but under mofule I have nothing with FCU chow up
sorry...just figured it out
great! how?

How do you know EventID 68066??
Watch until the end of the video. There is a section where I show how to read event id's with the FSUIPC console.

Hola!
Thank you ,please subtitle in espanish
Thats a great idea, yo hablo espanol y podria traducirlo.
