Hi,
Great program, but have just had an issue where the Key inputs do not work.
I am using 7.10 in admin mode, fsx steam in admin mode, with registered fsuipc4.9.
I re-enabled the G keystroke for gear using keyboard that works fine, on mobiflight it sees the switch movement but does not send a letter g- as confirmed by using the wordpad test... any suggestions?
Cheers
Geoff

Hi Geoff,

the keystroke only works if the receiving programm has the focus in windows. For your test the editor has to have the focus or otherwise the FSX.
What you can do is, if you use a button, so assign this button to the related function in FSUIPC directly.
You can also use the EventID 65570 (GEAR TOGGLE) with parameter 0 or EventID 66079 (GEAR UP) and 66080 (GEAR DOWN).

Grüße,
Stephan (Time: UTC+2)

Thanks Stephan

In both tests the editor/fsx was in focus with no result.

However I have found a work round by using an FSUIPC mouse macro and mobilflight macro operation (for use with ISG FMC and my own MCP.).

cheers
Geoff

Hi

Thats strange.

Note: If you use the Editor for teting then get sure the SIM is still active in backround OR get sure you enable "Offline Mode" in MF Settings.

MF will send Keys ONLY if it is in Offline Mode OR if it have a connection to SIM.

Good Luck !
