Hello,

I am Italian and I do not know English. So a Google translator hoping that you understand the same.

I searched the forum but I did not find this topic so I ask this question. I built my MCP for the PMDG boeing 737.
The leds all work very well but I have a big problem with levers and buttons. When I move a lever or press a button, I have a lot of delay in moving on the simulator.

Did any of you have the same problem?
Use mega arduino.

Hi.

We need a bit more information.
1. What Platform (FSX/P3d v??? )

2. Is Delay only in PMDG or in Standard Aircraft, too ?
To get same test situation..... Use Standard Aircraft but not controll via FSUIPC Offset.... Please use EVENT ID, too. ( a List of EventID for standard Aircraft is include in MF Preset !

****
Solution:
Try to change the FSUIPC Polling ( Mobiflight Setting menu)
Try enable LOGGING/DEBUG Mode ( or disable if its still on at the moment)

Please awnser questions and report experience of the recommend technics !
Good Luck !

The simulator used is P3D V3. I tried to set the lever as parking brake and it works without problem. So the problem seems to be related only to the PMDG

Ok....

Basicly PMDG is no difference..... If you checkout the testing of Standard Aircraft with a EVENT ID (Verry important) and problem not exist then i only can think its a System/CPU/GPU problem....
The only difference between PMDG and Standard Aircraft is, that PMDG need much more RAM and Processor Power.... So Delays can exist on poor systems !

If your statement was wrong and problem is on Standard Aircraft , too while using EVENTId instead of FSUIPC Offset then there are other reasons....

EventID need much more steps to send a comand as FSUIPC Offset.... But PMDG MUST use EventID....

Last Note... If you like you can try out a trick that some Users (me too) need ..... Activate the "LOGGING MODE" in settings tab and use "DEBUG" Type....
That can be helpfull to solve problems with missing /delayed Inputs.
Good Luck !
