    Re: Help on small Phidgets job...U/C and low volts.

    Darryl,

    That is a problem. Fs2Phidgets has always come with a usable set of offsets.
    If product is not working as advertised than let me know sooner.
    Copy FSVariables4316.xml from the folder where you installed fs2phidgets to the FsVariables folder.
    737MCP are offsets for project Magenta's 737 MCP.

    Regards,
    Alan

    I have uploaded 5.0.21 to Downloads page.
    As soon as the Dee or Matt have approved, it will be visible for download.
    This takes care of minimized bug and will copy offsets file to fsvariable folder.

    Re: Help on small Phidgets job...U/C and low volts.

    Cheers Alan,

    Yes, I know but didn't want to be one of the "complainers" when I wasn't really aware that something wasn't working properly. I truly appreciate the help though!!

    Maybe the Steam Valve analysis and a definate note in the manual to select from "available" variables may have helped. But the main problem really was that, for me, this was a very small part of the overall job, to be done in a hurry...and I never intended to "learn" the programme... a mistake to say the least.

    That, in hind sight, seriously handicapped me. The only excuse that I have to offer is that I had looked at the old version some time ago and it "seemed simple enough" to get three lights working. There is no doubt that they are now working much better and more accurately than they would have under the old version. (but in any case W7 64 bit wouldn't run the old stuff on my machine ).

    So another of my grandmother's old wise sayings applies...usually the longest distance between two points is the "short cut".




    I'll still have to play around with a seperate "U/C light power switch but I'm almost there now,


    Thanks again to you and Gokhotit for the help, courtesy and patience,

    Darryl
