Good day Guys!
I want to get a dual Needle Flap Gauge working with Mobiflight... I succesfully managed to get it working in the Test software and i can send the needles to different locations. But i dont know how to get it working with Simconnect and Prosim.

Any Help is highly appreciated!

Below is picture of my Simulator running almost only OEM parts!

Thanks
Tim

Can you get the flaps position status value from Prosim/Fuipc?

#

AFAIK, Prosim can only communicate with Mobiflight via FSUIPC7

#

there is a pull request for more direct prosim support and a thread on #development-chat but it is not part of mobiflight released versions yet

#

there should be a way with simconnect...

#

im using fsuipc but i need to have prosim connected via simconnevt to keep other hardeware running

So is there an Lvar that we can use to get the flaps position?

#

prosim can be downloaded btw, it has a time limited demo with otherwise full functionality

What’s a Lvar?

#

I have full version of Prosim

OK, if you want to use ProSim and Simconnect there has to be a way ProSim sends data back and forth with Simconnect.

#

An Lvar, short for Local Variable, is an Msfs general purpose storage location that can be used to store data and trigger actions inside the simulator.

#

Very much like a user defined Fsuipc offset.

Okay. So what do I need to do(

#

I don't have ProSim and frankly I have only briefly seen screenshots of its Fsuipc offsets definition page.

#

I suppose you need to find out how the ProSim to Simconnect interface works.

#

For example, can you read the generic flaps position variable in msfs? Is that in sync with what ProSim indicates?

#

I got it working! Thanks guys!

#

What is the solution found?

frozen valve
#

Solution ist that it dont matter what simulator connection prosim has. If you have fsuipc isnatlled you can configure mobiflight with Fsuipc just as..

No it works !

I thought you had found a way to connect to Prosim via Simconnect.
