Hi, I am in the process of setting up all my overhead annunciators via Mobiflight. Newbie to this !! ( I have PMDG 737, FSX, FSUIPC) So far everything was working great until I set up the two Gen Off Bus annunciators. Gen 1 Off Bus works perfect but Gen 2 Off Bus will not work. Have used the offset 0x6490 and when tested, everything looks ok, but when I use it in FSX it will not light up when required. I have set up Gen 1 Off Bus with 0x6489 and 1 byte, and also 1 byte with Gen 2 Off Bus, but no joy. The annun lights up in FSX but not on my overhead. Anyone have any ideas or come across similar occurance?

6490 is NOT GEN2 BUS .... It´s "APU MAINT"

In hexadecimal we count.....
6489 - 648A - 648B - 648C - 648D - 648E -648F - 6490 !!

Summary: Correct Offset for the other BUS is 648A 1 Byte INT

Good Luck !

Hi Again Pizman, Every day is a learning day!! Yes got the correct offset in and annunciator works a treat. Have now learned how to count in Hex correctly.
Thanks for the sound advice!!
