Hello at all,
does anyone use these MFDs with MSFS?

If yes, may I ask how you programmed them?


Many thanks in advance :jump:
 
Hi merida72!

I have two of them and have used them for years. I have one set up so that the buttons for the ATC responses (1 through 0) are programmed on the top and rightside buttons. The other buttons (Left side and bottom) are programmed for the instrument views (again one through 0). I don't have the rocker switches programmed but I I imagine that you can program them to increase or decrease (such as trim if you don't have a trim wheel). I programmed them through the MSFS control options not the TARGET software. I really like them and the way I have them programmed works very well for me.

I hope this helps and gives some ideas.

Best wishes, Joe
 
I have it and Im using it every day. i use it only with TARGET so as virtual keyboard option. Not only for MSFS but for DCS and IL-2 too. Very helpful.

I have FSUIPC too,
I would like to program it like those of the T-45...
can you suggest me how to do it?

With the airplane loaded in MSFS, click on the upside-down V and select FSUIPC. Select Program Buttons. A dialog box will show. Activate the button you want. It will show in the center box with a letter and number, such as B12. Select the operation you want from the dropdown box on the right.

This is a very broad brush answer. The user manuals in FSUIPC documents go into the many details of button programning. You can use basic functions or LVar functions depending on the dropdown.

P.S You must have the paid version of FSUIPC for this to work.

Yes yes I have the registered version the 7..3.16 ...
I meant peer-to-peer (identical) programming to the T-45 MFDs...
I've read something about using Lvar but I'm not very practical.


I thought there was a utility like in the old FSUIPC for FSX where you clicked with the mouse on the key you needed and the programmed code came out.

You might want to look into Lorby “Axis And Ohs”.
