I have worked through the Led Com1 tutorial and all works fine the led shows 123.45
When I fire up P3D the Led shows 023.45 (example)
Any Ideas

I have noticed that the tutorials show a mutliplizer set to 1 but my MF Connector does not.

To confirm all worked changed the Led to a transponder and all worked well

Thanks

Hi.

Appology about that.... The Tutorial was made with a earlyer Mobiflight Version.... That time there was a "Multiply" field existing. Today we get the "Transform" field instead of that.
( This is more better cause we can make full expressions here like +-*/ and IF conditions.... In The Past only a multiply * was possible. )

About your problem.....

Please check the FSUIPC Offset Lists ( located in your modules subfolder where FSUIPC is installed )

For COM 1 you see the follow note:

Quote:
COM1 frequency, 4 digits in BCD format. A frequency of
123.45 is represented by 0x2345. The leading 1 is assumed.

That Means a Frequence like 123,45 is wrtitten in the offset as 2345 . So Mobiflight is readout the offset simply with value 2345

To solve this you need the Transform field.... Use there $+10000 ......
In our example: 123,45 is shown as 2345 ....... 2345+10000=12345 .... Finaly you set in Display Settings simply the decimal Point on the correct place to get 123,45.

Have Fun !

Good Luck !
