    Hi,

    The first few things to check are that you have installed the Goflight drivers (they are available on Goflights support web page), that GIT is installed in the same directory as the Goflight drivers and the backend dll has been installed by you - details here: http://www.pollypotsoftware.org.uk/support/user-guide/user-guide-git/16-installation/14-installation.html

    Best wishes

    Thanks got it the drivers... now of course more issues.... here goes.... simconnect indicator is yellow... also unable to program buttons in tq6 (reversers) not highlightable)... and flaps and spoiler not working (still using fsupic) and throttles will not totally disengage.... your program looks like you can fine tune settings... but seems buggy on my computer... sorry can you help?

    Simconnect yellow LED is just a warning that an exception has been received. The details will be in the Log tab, but most of the time it can be ignored.

    The TQ6 when used with the PMDG 737 and 777 automatically configures the buttons so long as you have enabled the device. Thus all the button options are disabled.

    If you wish to configure the axis you need click the Configure Axes button on the TQ6 and follow the appropriate steps. Obviously either use FSUIPC or GIT for the axes but NEVER both!

    If you wish to use FSUIPC for axes, use my guide listed under the Support website menu. If you wish to use TQ6 for axes, read this http://www.pollypotsoftware.org.uk/support/user-guide/user-guide-git/19-operating/25-configuring-joystick-devices.html

    thanks again
  • wingriderwingrider
    Steve done everything you suggested... it will work once then not so much... my throttles now go into reverse when pushing forward... this is really confusing... I tried your fsupic to the tee... worked fine when setting it up... restart and not so good.... I'm ready to send this throttle back... Ill talk to John at GF again... too... I can't get GIT to work properly either... I'm not a new at this been flight simming 20 years... pretty techy but can you help this pathetic consumer?

    Hi Bob,

    How does the throttle behave in Game Controllers when you move the axis - is there lots of spiking/random behaviour. How do the axis work with just FSUIPC running and no GIT running?

    game controllers is fine calibrated great... in GIT very erratic.... jumpy... in fsupic very smooth... calibrates easy... work well until restart... then act very strange.... maybe its me and the pmdg a/c... but should not be this difficult.... 2 days now.... I see someone asked you to come into computer and look (team viewer session) is that possible with donation?

    I even uninstalled GIT

  • admin_ppsadmin_pps

    When you restart, what are your restarting? After the restart, check FSX, Settings, Calibration, Enable Controllers is unticked. Check in GFConfig that nothing is configured for the TQ6. Do not have GIT running....all should be OK then.

    If not, attach your fsuipc.ini file from FSX\Modules.

    Best wishes

    the GF config starts automatically with p3d... shut that down?
  • admin_ppsadmin_pps

    GFConfig is not the data bridge which is the program that starts automatically. GFConfig is a configuration program of the Goflight drivers. It creates a config that is read by the data bridge.

    You can of course also just kill the data bridge to make sure the Goflight drivers are not attempting to control the TQ6.

    Best wishes
