Hi

You give the awnser to your question still youreself !

Ifly do not support data to offsets as i know.... But there exist the PlugIn "ifly2fsuipc" that will do that.
Simply install this (Maby you need a INI Entry to enable data broadcast .... Read the Manual of that PlugIn !)

I not work with it so i can not tell you how the system looks like.... BUT there are just 2 possible ways.....

1. The PlugIn got a premade Offset Table.... then there must be a List somewhere (Manual) where you see what Function is on what offset.

2. The PlugIn got a User Interfac where you can define all functions yourseself to Offsets of your Choice.
There you say Function XY should use Offset XXXX with Size ? Typ ? and so on.

Summary.... Read the Manual of ifly2fsuipc.... THERE should be explane everything.
On Mobiflight Side the Offsets (of this Plugin) work simmular to standard Offsets.... Simply create a output Config.... Use the specific Offset and your LED will work.
Good Luck !

Exactly that. In the manual all offsets are listed.

Example: With output-offset 9402 you can readout following 8 different light states. Each bit belongs to an other function. You have to use bit mask.

iconCode:
9402 0 DUCT_OVERHEAT_1_Light_Status
9402 1 DUCT_OVERHEAT_2_Light_Status
9402 2 DUAL_BLEED_Light_Status
9402 3 RAM_DOOR_FUEL_DOOR_1_Light_Status
9402 4 RAM_DOOR_FUEL_DOOR_2_Light_Status
9402 5 PACK_TRIP_OFF_1_Light_Status
9402 6 PACK_TRIP_OFF_2_Light_Status
9402 7 WING_BODY_OVERHEAT_1_Light_Status


Input offset is 0x9400. Use parameter value to define the function. Anyway, all is listed in the manual.

Hi

Like in the past i can not tell you already a solution without using this software myself.....

BUT the Logic must be simple if you guys tell me there is a single Offset for multiple Inputs..... so the Value must be the key for every single Input sequence.

Please check your LIST ( pretty sure included in the "Ifly2FSUIPC" Manuals )
If its logical then every single swtich position or momentary action (toggle) got a specific parameter.

Means if you write Offset 9400 with value "1" then the input command number 1 is executed..... For example a momentary Button press of ALT Hold Switch....... If you send to same offet the Value "2" then command number 2 is executed.... For example set Landing Light Switch to On position.

So pretty sure you got a list where every single parameter is listed and tell you what kind of input is executed .
Good Luck !

For beginner like me there are two things to note for offset 9400:

- Set it to 2 bytes
- command set is like this: @+1 or @+2 and so on

´Basically Thank you Hermann

But this is not really usefull....

Maybe it work for your special case... But @+1 or @+2 is fully unlogical here !

Offset 9400 in Ifly is a "Multi Paremeter Input".
So whatever you send 1,2,3, or whatever calue to this offset the Ifly will execute a specila command.

@ here is refered to a Potentiometer in Mobiflight.... And +1 or +2 make no sense cause we will not execute hundrets of different things with jsut 1 poti.

Maybe i missunderstand.... But your recomendation makes fully no sense to me.
Good Luck !

Hi again,

I have no idea, what you mean.

I think i decleared it not clearly enough.

I attach a screen shot for eg. GearOFF

In mine and my friends cases this works fully ok.
Best wishes:

You use no Potentiometer here.... So the "Input Value" that is normaly used for those config not exist!
I wonder why this not give a syntax error.... But thats a fact that "internal" in MF @ is pretty sure Zero aslong no Value exist.

You can simply confirm my thoughts....

Change your Entry from @+1172 into 1172
If i´m right then you simply say 0+1172 at the moment here .... Cause @ is fully senseless here.

EDIT: Just test it myself.... As i said. @ is Zero if not in use
I remove the last part cause already confirmed not a problem ;-)
