Hei Jan, My next update of the OC4BA_XP driver for Laminar/Zibo 738 and IXEG 733 has just started. OVH , MIP and CDU support are planned for this update. But, I am not sure that full CDU support for the IXEG 733 can be achieved due to lack of possibility to undock the CDU screen. So, my simple question is: Is there any possibility to undock the CDU screens of IXEG 733? Do you have any plans to support this in an update?

Thanks for your replay. Then the udate goes without this feature enabled for the MCP. The OC4BA_XP driver lets you use Opencockpits hardware modules MCP, EFIS1, COM1, NAV1, ADF1 and ATC ) . More hardware modules will be added later this year. More info here: www.flightsim4fun.com

Could someone from IXEG support either say Yes or No to my question?

Hei, I am about to update my OC4BA_XP driver for the IXEG B737-300 but I can't find any dataref for the IAS dispaly's overspeed and underspeed( the 8 and A symbol). Isn't there any datarefs for these? I have looked in the aircraft's documentation folder, file "2-interface guide.pdf", but do not see any. Roar

Clarification I have looked further into the issue of making my Windows plugins available as MAC plugins, and have come to the conclusion that I will NOT make MAC compatible plugins of rksoftware's Opencockpit plugins for X-Plane. Hope you(Ben) can bury the hatchet, so we can have a fruitful conversation over the forum in the future.

How can you know what other people think. Do not think you know everything! Try to relax a little.

See this link for some info. http://www.flightsim4fun.com The OC4BA_XP plugin is though only for WIndows at the moment, but can be easly made MC compatible.

Hi, The OC4BA_XP plugin from rksoftware will let you use your Opencockpit modules to fly the IXEG B737-300. Fly the magnificent IXEG B737 from "real" flightdeck modules and not your PC mouse. Visit http://www.flightsim4fun.com

Hi, I have it now. I added the dataref to my code and then it now shows up in the DataRefTool plugin also. Very strange, but now I have it. I can swear that I did not had this prior to updating to hotfix 1.07 and added the dataref to my code. This has taken me days. Thanks for helping me to get this solved.

Hi, No, I do not have this dataRef. Do I have an old version of the plane. I bought and downloaded it a few days ago. I even now installed the latest hotfix 1.07 . But, still no not able to find the dataRef ixeg/733/MCP/mcp_vs_dial_ann . What do I do to get the version you have? Added info: I read the datarefs with the DataRefTool plugin as I am not able to get any ixeg datarefs with the Data Ref Editor plugin.Could it be taht it is there, but that I just can't find it with the above plugin? Roar

I had a futher look at how to use the dataRef "ixeg/733/MCP/mcp_vs_target_act", but found no solution to my problem. As this dataRef is only a counter , there is no way I can get the actual value of the VS in order to get a start value. Too me it looks like when the plane loads, it has all the counter set to 0. So, if I write i.e. 10. to it it will increase the value 10 * step ( 50 below 1000 and 100 above 1000). If the VS value was 1000 it will change to 2000. But, as I have no way of getting the intial value , there is no way I can use this dataRef. This is because the VS value changes without the counter changes, when you are in a climb or a dive ( LVLCHG mode i.e.) Hope the IXEG team can provide a solution to this problem.

Hei Stian, Thanks for your reply. The "ixeg/733/MCP/mcp_vs_target_act" is a counter that maybe can be used. I did not see this earlier. ixeg/733/MCP/mcp_vs_dial_ann, I can't find, but you probably mean ixeg/733/MCP/mcp_vs_ann. This is the annunciator for the VS button.ixeg/733/MCP/mcp_vert_speed_act. This is the VS button itself. Roar

Hi, Not sure I will call it a bug, but still missing and deeply missed. There is NO dataref for the MCP Verical Speed display. It should be both a read and write dataref. All other MCP displays, CRS_A, IAS/MACH, HDG, ALT, CRS_B are all OK. Urgent need in order to finalize hardware interface plugin. If it is not hidding somewhere, please add it to your coming update.

Christmas was 3 days ago OK, I respect the need for holidays. Just hope to get a reply sometime.

Could someone from the IXEG team please give a respond to this topic
