Hi all, setting a "NAV audio toggle" from LIB : default FSX >> Radios functions how can make the difference between NAV1 and NAV2 ? Thanks in advance Claudio Damiani

Hi all, New to coding, new to LINDA and LUA but trying hard not to hit the forum with everything. However, could someone tell me where this code is going wrong? I'm trying to make a physical switch carry out a function and play a sound, switch state on or off: function button_OnPress (j0, b1) function ALL_FuelPumps_on () ipc.setbitsUB("3125", 0) ipc.setbitsUB("3125", 1) ipc.setbitsUB("3125", 2) ipc.setbitsUB("3125", 3) DspShow ("PUMP", "on") ref1=sound.play("fuel_pump") sound.adjust(ref1, 100) --ipc.sleep(50) function buttonOnRelease (j0, b1) function ALL_FuelPumps_off () ipc.clearbitsUB("3125", 0)…

Hello I was wondering what is the best way to update from version 3.0.9 where I have extensive custom user lua.files and all the add-on aircraft folders installed and working quite well to the new v3.0.12? Basically looking for the process to update without losing any of the work I have done. Thanks in advance Joe

Can anyone tell me what is wrong with this line? function button_OnPress (046DC2150, 2) The 9 digit number is the number identifying the joystick (my homemade HID) and the button number at least, this is how they are identified by the LINDA Tracer when I press the particular button. However, FSUIPC identifies them as '0' and '1' respectively. The Editor calls a syntax error of: 'malformed number near 046DC2150'. I've tried it with the FSUIPC identifier and the LINDA number against my HID in the Joystick settings window (it is number 2 in the list so I've tried that. I've tried parenthesis etc but to no avail. If I use the FSUIPC identity for the butto…

LINDA Vers: 3.0.12 FSUIPC Vers: 4.974 FSX SE Hi all, Early days for LINDA and I but over the weekend I’ve started to build my helicopter start sequence with some significant help from ScotFlieger and I am calling that ‘Phase 1’. I am posting this because I’d like to be pointed in the right direction so I can get on with phases 2 & 3. Here’s the plan… Phase one involves a battery switch (practical switch on my home made collective which you might call an HID) which turns on the battery and runs a cockpit fan sound effect on a loop. Then, a push-to-hold button (HID) is held down for 60 seconds while a starter/wind up soun…

Hi all, Please help my baffled head. FSX SE/Latest Linda/latest FSUIPC. Linda installed and running, it sees all my HID/Sticks etc but I want to create a new module for an add-on helicopter. I have a collective with certain buttons etc and I think I know what LINDA can do for me to make it all lovely however, LINDA just doesn't see anything that isn't an FSX Default aircraft in the 'New aircraft module' window. So, I have two questions at least... 1_ How do I get LINDA to find my Rotorcraft? (Bell_205_LCSD) 2_ What is meant by 'Aircraft search string' (short string) in that window. I accept that the solution is probably in a manual or ev…

Hi, I am trying to set up a HAT switch to generate Eye Point movements. However, as an example, when I try to setup a CTL BSP command to move the Eye Point Forward it returns a "NONE." A similar thing happens when I attempt to setup an Eye Point Reset by entering CTL SPC? Bill Clark

Hi When i load the sim, and the gear handle on the switch panel is in the up position, LINDA will make the LED's flash to make the user aware - Good Stuff! So, somewhere there must be a file (?) that controls this....or rather, the LED's are able to be controlled, some way. All i'm trying to do is make them go OFF when i turn off the master battery switch ( A2A comanche 250 ) Can anyone advise how to? Many thanks

So I have fallen in love with this program, it is by far the best program I have ever used for assigning switches to any flight sim, thanks. Now for my question, I am using a Leo Bodnard 32 card but I am needing to add another card and was wondering if there was a different one that I could purchase that would be able to send and receive data and would Linda software be able to do this from the software side? ex: "lower" landing gear and then get the "three green" gear down indication. I'm not Linda can do this, I have done several searches and could not find anything, it may have been answered before but I can't seem to find the answer. I'm also curious as to what c…

Hi there, I came across the following post, which is now closed and I wasn't able to ask my question in that particular thread..., so starting a new one. Apologies if I am not doing this correctly. I wanted to ask whether the this download package would be usable with a generic human interface, such as Bodnar joysick controller, or whether this is specific to the MCP panel. Many thanks in advance! Alex

Have been using LINDA with a few default aircraft and have started getting a bit more involved with the A2A V35 Bonanza. Going quite well so far. Enjoying the functionality of LINDA as well as the learning process. Thought I would begin the process of assigning various PMDG 737NGX buttons to my TM Warthog Hotas and Throttle. After running into some issues, I reinstalled the 737 module, yet the issues persist. I have read all the documentation I could find for the 737 and LINDA in general, searched past AVSIM posts and YouTube, but am not finding anything along the lines of what I'm experiencing. In a new 737 configuration install, the Throttle map is showing 4 b…

Can anyone help with putting a mouse macro in a LUA function... to enable toggling and TripleUse.lua ? function VC_GSLD_FCU_SPD_inc () ipc.control(FSL, 71226) -------------------------------- what format, syntax etc to use here --A320_SPD = A320_SPD + 1 --DspShow ("SPD", "inc") end I have now changed from the Aerosoft A320 to the FSLabs one... and trying to set my button box for this The FSLabs actions file doesn't work for me..... the Aerosoft A320 one did for it. Any ideas ....? Thanks , ian

Hi, I fly VR (Oculus Rift) in P3D v4.4 and I am not able to center the headset when using the following default keystroke sequence to calibrate the Rift. This default keystroke combination is SHF + CTL + , which works fine if I use the keyboard, however, when assigned to a joystick button, nothing happens. Any idea other than assigning a simpler keystroke combination to this function? Bill Clark

Hi all, Utter LINDA newbie here with a couple of questions regarding LINDA. My plan is to have my own start up sequence involving a push and hold physical button which would open a .WAV file (starter wind up) and hold it for a few seconds before launching the usual turbine wind up sequence in FSX (turboshaft engine). Early release of the start button would terminate the start up (ideally). As an extra touch of authenticity, it would be nice if the N1 guage came up while the starter cranks but that could be for another day. My two questions therefore are; is LINDA the appropraite way to go with this and would I be re-inventing the wheel because somebody…

Greetings, I'm running into problems installing the A2A Bonanza B35 module. Directions call for downloading zip, extract, open LINDA, open Maintenance, Select Source Folder all of which work jut fine. However, the next step directs: 6. Click on Install/Overwrite Module button. I find no such button. I have looked at this page for said button for far too long. The Import Module button below the text box that DOES provide the correct directory location to the correct folder is INOP, grayed out. So... I tried dropping the Bonanza folder into the modules folder, the same as I did with the 737NGX (which shows up fine in LINDA aircrafts). However, this …

Hey, i don't know what to do. I installed the driver, LINDA and set the COM4 as in the device manager displayed. Furthermore I do have a FSLabs 3xx Profile installed but no connection. When I start my sim, the FCU light flashes shortly and the display resets but after 1 sec everything is "standard" again. (With the Airbus Type v1.100...blabla). DELETED - DO NOT POST LOGS ON FORUM What can I do? Please help! ❤️ Regards PS: Is there any log file I can show to you?

Hey guys! My question: would it be possible to connect more than one MCP combo panel, e.g. one MCP combo 1 panel and another MCP 2 combo panel Boeing style (both from VRinsight), simultaneously with Linda and assign each different combo panel different button/knob functions for Prepar3D? Until now I can only choose in the setup for one MCP combo panel, either version 1 or 2 (Boeing or Airbus style), so it is only one panel possible to configure. Especially for simmers who buy (upgrade to) another MCP combo panel (e.g. Boeing style) with a still working MCP combo 1 panel this would be excellent, as it doubles the amount of buttons, displays and knobs. …

Hi, new to LINDA I have a problem with my Saitek Pro Flight switches. After I deleted all assignments in P3D, I created a default scheme now I would like now to access the Dash8 specific functions. Controlling the landing lights, beacon, strobe and transponder with a switches from my joystick would be perfect. Installed is P3D v4, LINDA v3.0.9 and the Majestic Dash 8 Q-400 module v2.6. As it seems in LINDA everything is well configured: When I press a switch I see it in the joystick config ui with the assigned action and in the console output the button id and a bitmap, but in my simluator cockpit nothing happens. Only the default FSX commands seem…

Is there a way to make the Heading toggle between the 1 and 10 degree steps... in a Lua script ? I have tried but am not able, This is what I've tried...

P3D 4.5.12.30293 FSLABS 2.0.2.347 FSUIPC 5.151 Linda 3.0.9.v4 FSLabs Airbus A3xx-X 0.14 BETA Hello, everybody, many thanks to Günter Steiner and the other developers for the new FS Labs module. I installed it and everything worked, except the functions that were added via the file FSLabsA3XX.MCRO. The file is in the folder Modules and in the FSUIPC5.ini it is registered under [MacroFiles] 3=FSLabsA3XX. If I assign the function FSLA3XX_APU_MASTER_TOGGLE to a button on the MCP combo, and then press the button nothing happens. I tried VC cockpit and 2D panel. Could it be that I have a 4K panel or do I have to activate the mouse macros elsewhere, ? thanks again S…

Trying to make the HDG rotary increase step from - 1 deg per click to 10 deg per click - automatically when turning the rotary after a set number of deg's have occured in a given time. Here is a sample of the LUA actions.lua script from LINDA website for the Aerosoft Airbus A320 that I've been trying to alter with no success (I am not a programmer). Can anyone help please...... This the original for HDG plus , there is also one for HDG plusfast but you need to manually trigger which one to select _________________________________________________________ function AB_HDG_plus () AB_hdgtrk = ipc.readLvar("AB_AP_HDGTRK") AB_…

Hi guys - it seems my Linda (latest) does not communicate correctly with PMDG 777-200 models. All is well with the 300ER and all other airplanes I use, yet the 200's won't work. All is recognised well, Linda connected to sim (P3d V3) but all the commands are wrong - for example, on my Saitek switch panel, deice activates the window wipers, other just cause a mouse click in random spots. Any clue how to fix this? * Different liveries - same result * default panel.cfg - same result * reloading/reassigning - same result * FSUIPC event log - correct event sent to P3D, but the action is wrong. Thanks in advance!

Quick question..is it absolutely 100% necessary to have FSUIPC -registered payed version- to work? Currently doing the whole reinstall marathon on a new system...I have all my modules in place in Linda, it recognises my aircraft, when I press a button it shows in Linda, and what control I’ve assigned to it, but nothing happens in sim...did the previous older version require registered fsuipc also? many thanks Luke

Hallo to all I am a newbie with Linda. I have installed everything as described. But doors do not open automatically on the 737NGX. The baggages are loaded and unloaded automatic without asking to open the doors. So thats great. I use the newest FSUIPC reg. But why stay all doors closed? Thanks for every help! I have installed GSX library and 737 profiles. All the best, Boris, Swiss

Since after discovering LINDA recently, it has really brought my sim experience to a new level, thanks! I have a question regarding button press and hold functionality? Does it exist? When I press and hold a button, I'm looking for it to hold that control in LINDA. My button does show as being held down in my device controllers. Specifically, I'm looking to assign a key to APU Start in the Leonardo MadDogX. When I press and hold the button, it sends a single command to the sim to start the APU. The switch momentarily moves to start, then back to ON. However, I need to hold it in the start position for several seconds. Is this possible? Am I mi…
