Like a blind pig trying to find a truffle, I stumbled around trying to set up key press commands in FSUIPC so I could do mag checks during runup. I have implemented a fair amount of FSUIPC control but it was mostly "monkey-see, monkey-do" implementation not really understanding what was happening under the hood. I have the mind and aptitude of a 19th century blacksmith not a 21st century coder. I did the **** thing and read the Advanced Users Guide but it too was way over my head.
I thought a key press like TAB+1 might be good to switch the LEFT Mag OFF. I found some good commands that I thought might work but I never hit on the right combination.
What should I have put in the "Control sent when key pressed" window? What should I specify "Control sent when main key released" window to return to BOTH mags ON after switching off the LEFT mag? The parameter window confused me as well. Was "0" off, or was "0" on. Are there more parameters than 0 and 1?
Can any of the brilliant minds on this board give me the implementation for the commands to switch mags OFF-ON-BOTH so I can do a proper runup?
