Hi,

I am trying without any luck I am afraid to pair 8 switches connected to a LEO BODNAR card with the PMDG 737-800 OH lights switches...

The way I am trying to do this is via FSUIPC (registered version of course) and buttons + switches tab. Each switch is recognised by FSUIPC (Joystick & Button) and then there is a huge list with offsets on the right when pressing and releasing the specific button. I cannot find any lights offsets except landing lights....

There is an option "parameter" where I suspect one can enter the offset of each button ( Am I correct ? ) I have looked in PMDG manual for possible offsets but I cannot find anything. I must admit that sowhere here I have lost contact, and I rest my case...

I am sure many people have done the same thing, so if you guys could help me out, I would really appreciate it.

What I need is the following parameters:

Landing Lights ON
Landing Lights OFF

Runway Lights ON
Runway Lights OFF

Taxi Lights ON
Taxi Lights OFF

Logo Lights ON
Logo Lights OFF

Strobe Lights ON
Strobe Lights OFF

Anticollision Lights ON
Anticollision Lights OFF

Wing Lights ON
Wing Lights OFF

Engine Start Left ON
Engine Start Right ON

Engine Start Left GND
Engine Start Left CONT
Engine Start Left FLT

Engine Start Right GND
Engine Start Right CONT
Engine Start Right FLT

:p

Thanks

Hi Nick
have you overhead macro for 737? It have all commands to assign with FSUIPC. It is in FSUIPC directory, you must copy on FS9 modules directory. I have built my OH panel with Bodnar cards and i have assigned commands for all with FSUIPC OH Macro.
For Engine Start is a bit more difficult : i have solved the problem, i post my scheme.
FSUIPC will see your rotary like two buttons, you assign Start -1 for GRD position and nothing for OFF position; to the other button you assign Start +1 for CONT position and Start -1 for OFF position. At cut out you take knob in off.
