Hey guys, it's me again.

I'm currently working on XPUIPC to work with MobiFlight. There's an .ini file in which you define what you want to trigger via MobiFlight, be it Dataref or Command.

So far, i've been able to trigger toggle switches via Dataref codes, but with Commands for the same switches, i'm having some trouble. Also i can't make the LED's work either. Btw, for Dataref triggering, at least 4 bytes should be used, using 1 byte make the switches glitch & go off of their range in the XP-11, quite weird :D Also you can use literally any 4 digit custom offset, because you're defining whatever you want for it.

Anyway, My questions as are below.

1- Is there anyone around who is (or have dealt) with this and became successful ?

2- I need to know what's the difference between array, intarray, float, sint, uint (16 and 32) and so on, because such value types are all around on this .ini file and i've got no idea which one shall i use for any type of input/output.For switches, i've used "int" and "UINT32" according to the examples given, but i've got no idea why it's an "int" or "UINT32". What happens if i declare it like "UINT8" or "16"

If i can solve all of these, i'll make a tutorial for those who want to work their system with XP-11. You can

Hi slammer,

Great to here that you try to make XPUIPC More Mobiflight compatible. Iam switching between ardim and Mobi and I like Mobi more because you can run it remotely and it is easy to use. The new version of ardsimx will work with only one Mega and so you don’t need the many Cards and usb connectors. Looking forward

Regards Christian
