the numbers change and work fine with the heading offset the speed offset and the com display offset but
when i set up and change the altitude off set in fsx2020 the altiude does not change any numbers on the 7 segment led
but with every other off set it has no faults and all numbers change like they do in the simulator
#hi just started building my homeade copit the problem i have is i bought 7 segmented led displays

You need to post screenshots of your output configs for the faulty altitude display. What is FSX2020? You mean MSFS2020?
FSX is another simulator
also, if this is MSFS2020, you dont need FSUIPC offsets
you can use them, but you dont have to use them.
IMO, Simconnect events are easier to understand.
Please specify which vendor and aircraft?

THE BOEING 747 8I IN FSX and i only no by offset as utube video showed lol
when i do it that wayt with heading speed and the com all workes with the simulatore not bothered about the altitude matching yet just that it actully changes numbers like i say speed heading com does not tried vs yet
with me nothings ever straight foward i always got to do extra lol from what a utube video tutorial says lol
sometimes it does not always save that preset eith but othe save
others save
the thing with sim connect it does not show options for led altitude display
uncut wind
If it is FSX, then Fsuipc is the only way to work in Mobiflight
slow isle
nah using msfx 40th anerversory
uncut wind
It's Not "msfx"
slow isle
msfs2020
uncut wind
It is MSFS
slow isle
i know some times i spell quick
uncut wind
Well it confuses everyone
Because FSX is something else
So what I said about not needing Fsuipc7 applies
slow isle
i know it dont but in in sim connect i have not seen an option for ap display or value
uncut wind
did you follow the notification that you need a modifier for that offset?
slow isle
sorry i have but dont think it works i found AP ALTITUDE DISPLAY
uncut wind
if you are using the default Asobo 747 8i most likely the generic events will work
uncut wind
slow isle
thank you that works the only thing is is the numbers dont mathc
match
about a500ft out ill have to change code a bit if i cant nmow
uncut wind
slow isle
thanks for your help you saved a lot of time for m,e though thankyou
slow isle
the one im using that works fine is just the alt display for 747 8i works perfecxt i just need to use change code now some time i test my self but hub hop might let me set the same if hopefully
thanks for all your help with telling me to use sim conncet instead
uncut wind
the Fsuipc offset clearly says the value is in meters*65536
So some conversion is necessary to obtain feet
that doesn't happen in Simconnect
slow isle
ah right yeah it matches the only thing i have when im at 500 feet it says 50000
anything after 10000 feet is acurate but at least it works
uncut wind
so, why are you using right padding with 0 character then?
activate left padding and select space character
in the display config
slow isle
i just messed around with differnt setting to try get it wonking
and that were when i set the same one up as heading
to test it worked
and i was using 0 to show 0 and i wanted numbers on the right side for my cockpit but it dont really matter wich side when i install it into my casing
ah right thankyou got what you meant yeah shows 500 now
yeah thanks for the anser lol im ney to these led display setup but works like it should thats great
new to it i mean
do you know anything about setting up throtttle i have mine working what i bult both rotery analogue in puts work throttle calibrated on hum hop the thing i had trouble with is they bothe move as one but not individually so if it was emergancey sfire procedure i cant pull one throttle back on its own they both only move as one
hub hop
uncut wind
hub hop
show which input event you are using
it is obvious, you need to use the individual throttle events
THROTTLE1 and THROTTLE2
THROTTLE alone moves all throttles.
747 has four engines
slow isle
yeah the only options i seen what i use were throttle 1 set and throttle 2 set
all rest are postitons onf the throttles / cut / increse
uncut wind
I see throttle set events for four engines in Hubhop
slow isle
yeah when i search throttle hub hob presets does not come up with any sugestions
sorry might be thrst
slow isle
yeah usewd them they work just that when i pull one throttyle back both pull back but thanks for help
uncut wind
I asked you to show your input config
do you have four throttle levers?
the 747 has four engines, so you need to control four throttles
slow isle
nah just 2 at the minute but i been using airbus and boeing at minute with them till i build 2 more
so obviopusly dont have 4 engines
uncut wind
yeah, but you need to control four engines
engines 1 and 2 on the left lever
and engines 3 and 4 on the right lever
slow isle
but on the airbus its still does the same with the 2 throttles
uncut wind
airbus A320 only has two engines
slow isle
yeah and i have 2 throttles for the minute i use that as well with neofly
uncut wind
I am not understanding what you say
slow isle
i will be building another 2 throttles next to add to the 2 i have the reason wy is because i built a airbus cocpit first then changed my mind i like boeing instruments better on msfs
uncut wind
fine
I am saying you can control four engines with two levers too
but obviously they cannot be controlled individually with just two levers.
each lever will need to control two throttles
slow isle
yeah but how understand witrh boeind but if i have too throttles the airbus does the same and that has 2 throttles
slow isle
the air bus has 2 throttles and i have 2 throttles but they do not work individually either
uncut wind
SHOW YOUR INPUT CONFIGS
slow isle
dont reallt get why i use throttle set 1 and throttle set 2
uncut wind
Sorry, I can't help you if you don't want to share any information.
slow isle
i have been sharing infomation
uncut wind
saying what you did is not enough
I want to see it
because very often what you say you did is not what the config says
slow isle
dont matter ill figure it out my self thanks for helpfull advise you chose to give me but dont need the attitude just becasuse you have more expiernce with the programme thanks for the help i dont usually ask for help i usually figure things for my self anyway bye
