Hello,

I plan to build a cockpit for FS2020 official content aircraft. I found that some unique LED for specific aircraft because I cant found them on "Use Preset", like TBM930 Center Panel "Transfer AP to right or left PFD"
I read some post regarding to make them by hand, but I cant find any document or tutorial for this topic. Where can I learn to make "Use preset/ Config" by hand.

Thanks!

At this point for MSFS2020 we are limited by the current SDK and FSUIPC7 integration. Take a look at the FSUIPC7 odt file that lists all the offsets.
If you are interested in an Offset that does not come as preset in MobiFlight you simply have to take the values from the odt file in the respective FSUIPC settings
Have a great day!

Thanks for reply.

I have a look the FSUIPC7 folder, only got the one "ods" file but can't find "odt", are they the same? Also when I open the ods file, the content is unreadable, what i did wrong?

Thanks.

ODS is a format of "Open Office " .... A Freeware Office alternate.
Good Luck !

Thanks,

I had checked the ods file, some button is not on the list, eg: "XFR" (Transfer autopilot to right PFD). Is that mean no chance to get the offset for that button at the moment?

Also On the Center penal of TBM 930, all the button on that panel is toggle (One press on, one press off), so how to implement toggle by MobiFlight?

Remember... FSUIPC7 is still BETA...... Lots of things won´t work a.t.m. or are sinmply not yet implement. As i rmember Pete Dowson means we should plan for a final verison not before Nov oder Dec 20.

About Toggle.....

If there exist a writeable offset ( mostly boolean 1 or 0 ) then a toggle command is done by Value " if($=1,0,1) "
So you say "if current value is 1 then write it to Zero .... else ( so if value is NOT 1 means its currently 0 ) then write it to 1 " .
Good Luck !
