Hello!

We are trying to program the keyboard of the FMC but we are having problems.
We have coded the numbers on the keyboard in Mobilflight as buttons, and mobilflight recognises it when we press them, but we are having problems because it does not write anything in the FMC. Could anyone help us and tell us what the problem could be? Thank you!

What Aircraft do you use ? AddOn ? and what Sim do you use ?

Each single Aircraft work different. For FSX/P3D we need to go a fully different way as if we use FS2020.

Can you confirm you use the right Events ?

We are using the zibo 737-800X in XPlane 11. The plugins that we are using for searching the DataRef is DataRefTool, and we are activating each DataRef to be sure they work inside the Sim. In the MobiFlight settings we are using FSUIPC-Offset with a custom archive called XPUIPC-Offset with lines of code calling to commands with custom numbers, for example: Command 0x6800 UINT8 0 1 sim/radios/com1_standy_flip _
The command written above works perfectly but just by changing the last digits, for example, to 0x6890 and the same DataRef, doesn´t work. We have been advised to use XPlane all versions as action type, but our ecosystem is mostly written with FSUIPC-Offset action.
We are using two Arduino Mega, and we have scanned the inputs of the FMC buttons and they work (are detected).
As you recommended in the other thread, we followed all the steps and none of them have solved the problem. For easier communication, we suggest to talk through this thread.
We want to thank you for your fast response, and we hope that you can help us.

Hi again.

XPUIPC is still possible.
We meanwhile work with our new Direct Input System..... But sure you can still do it the old way.

What i not fully understand is if you correctly create all this needed funtions in XPUIPC ?
Cause all this ZiboMod Stuff is not directly possible.... You must create hundrets of code lines in XPUIPC CFG file.
Thats why we make direct Imput today to avoid this work and to also avoid the unneeded "bypass" via XPUIPC.

I call you on Discord.
Lets solve it there.
