TOBS Posted May 14, 2011 Report Posted May 14, 2011 Today I uploaded a config file with a lot of custom buttons including the complete FMC which you can adress to keystrokes or joystickbuttons. Please go the .org site http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=13581 to download the config file and follow the instructions on Joan`s xjyomap site.Cheers Tom
philipp Posted May 15, 2011 Report Posted May 15, 2011 Great you got it working! Now this will allow to interface every single button of the CRJ when I release the datarefs - really soon after patch.Philipp
TOBS Posted May 16, 2011 Author Report Posted May 16, 2011 Phillip, Javier,please tell me one more datref what I do not find ???I am looking for the click or button dataref which opens the big FMC popup.Thnks Tom
TOBS Posted May 16, 2011 Author Report Posted May 16, 2011 I think it is CRJ/popup/cduNo Javier - for popup I looked already - there is no command like this neither in the cockpit file or in the manipuladores file.regards Tom
Japo32 Posted May 16, 2011 Report Posted May 16, 2011 I think it is CRJ/popup/cduNo Javier - for popup I looked already - there is no command like this neither in the cockpit file or in the manipuladores file.regards Tomas said philipps yes it is.. There are also datarefs inside the acf file.
TOBS Posted May 16, 2011 Author Report Posted May 16, 2011 sorry to you both - but I got all my datarefs now out of the cockpit file - but this one I cannot find there - but it is the dataref you told me - I should have tried it the after javiers answer. me culpa....now the command works fine.thnks tom
TOBS Posted May 17, 2011 Author Report Posted May 17, 2011 One last thing before you come with your list:I do not find the popup command for the PFD neither in the cockpit file nor in the acf file please tell me that dataref - and for the next I will wait - mostly I got whant I want regards tom
Japo32 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 you have them on panel2d.. on the hierarchy. Select each one and on the left in properties you can see the dataref used.PFD: CRJ/pop/pfdSecondary Eicas: CRJ/pop/seicasPrimary Eicas: CRJ/popup/p_eicasMFD: CRJ/pop/mfdIt would me nice you can make a video of the system you are having, so people can see how you manage your hardware (keyboard or whatever) to manage CRJ instruments. There are lots of poeple out there that still don't feel confortable in 3D cockpits.Thanks!

There are lots of poeple out there that still don't feel confortable in 3D cockpits.Thanks!Javier,thank you...I am dealing with a nice quite big list of custom buttons for the CRJ. I use the python interface and xjoymap from Joan from barcelona. Now it is possible to have a config file in the plane folder - this will adress all the custom buttons. those buttons are found as usual in the keystroke or joystickbutton menue of XP - grouped by names like electric, fms, fmc, autopilot etc to find it quick out of the big list. For example the complete FMC is now to use with a keyboard - no need for the mouse - but there is much more.Joan has also implemented a feature to override the default datarefs of xp with custom datarefs of the plane. this will give a quick access. there is one problem still with the cleaning up after shutting down xp or reloading the pyhton script - but I think joan will solve this. unfortunatey he do not have the crj to test what he is writing - I can test my list but I have also to test his new script on my machine - but I have win and he is on mac - this makes the rest a bit difficult.regards Tom
Japo32 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 I told to people around, but I tell again here....For me it is not a problem someone makes an addom for the CRJ200 and sell it and have the 100% of that money that guy using my CRJ200. No problem at all. Why?Because it makes our plane better... So more people would buy the CRJ200. So I welcome every addom free or payware that this plane can produce. BUT the only I ask for them, is just buy the plane once. Only that. I think is fair.
TOBS Posted May 18, 2011 Author Report Posted May 18, 2011 Anyway the list is done so far. I am waiting for Joan to update his python button map script on the .org. You will need Sandy Barbours Python Interface 2.6.6 http://www.xpluginsdk.org/python_interface_sdk100_downloads.htm and Python 2.6.6 http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6.6/ Make it ready to run on your machine - with the upcoming script and my configfile you will be able to adress really a lot of buttons and once you understand how Joan´s script works you are able to edit the configfile to match your needs. The dataref list for the CRJ200 was released by Phillip.Cheers Tom
