Guys,

For wanting not to sound ignorant on this subject, I have been seeing posts about PM Offsets etc...etc and I am not able to understand it much. WHat are the offsets and how is it used? I have the FULL Boeing and AIRBUS Project Magenta software and have not gone into the Overhead Hardware part of it yet but I am now making a pedestal with some switches that can link to my MCPEX1 board. I am interested to also do the Cut off for the engines and seeing this post about Off sets has ....literally Off Set me. If I use the MCPEX1 to link directly to FS to do the fuel cut off, isnt that OK, as sometimes I still dont use the PM Systems linked to the sim.

Is there a manual of how to used and understand Off Sets?

Appreciate being pointed to the right direction.

Thanks

Regards,
Chris

May be it should start at the beginning!

What is the way you switch OFF your A/T, hardware MCP?

Thomas,
I am using MCP from CPFLIGHT, for switch OFF i have connected one PUSHBUTTON to MCPEX1. It only disable SPEED function from MCP when i press it ( i prefer this way to have GO AROUND N1 ready with A/T in ARM position ) or maybe you could suggest another better way for that?

Crisdanker,

Take a look like Thomas said, sure that will help you that's exactly what i am doing with MCPEX1 , if you have any dude advise us, ok
