IFLY 747 programming

Hi,
I have understoof now how to program for PMDG.
I am trying to program for IFLY, and, as I do not have the SDK, I cannot find out.
Could you help me for 2 exemples, and then I'll try to continue by myself : Landing lights and seat belts.

Thank's a lot in advance
Yves

  • Use the search function and search for "landing". You should find the following Events:

    KEY_COMMAND_IFLY744_GENERAL_LANDING_LIGHT_ON
    KEY_COMMAND_IFLY744_GENERAL_LANDING_LIGHT_OFF

    Assign to the ON and OFF Switch Events of a switch as necessary.

    For a button use the toggling event: KEY_COMMAND_IFLY744_GENERAL_LANDING_LIGHT

    The Button/Switch Action should be NOTHING.

    For the Light use LIGHT_LANDING, with an Action of ON and a value of 1.

    For the seatbelts search for "seat" and you will find:

    KEY_COMMAND_IFLY744_GENERAL_SEATBELT_DEC
    KEY_COMMAND_IFLY744_GENERAL_SEATBELT_INC
    KEY_COMMAND_IFLY744_GENERAL_SEATBELT_OFF
    KEY_COMMAND_IFLY744_GENERAL_SEATBELT_AUTO
    KEY_COMMAND_IFLY744_GENERAL_SEATBELT_ON

    The INC and DEC commands are best suited to a rotary although you could assign DEC to the ON event of a button and the INC to another buttons ON event

    For the Light use Seat_Belt_Switch_Status with an Action of ON_GREATER_THAN and a Value of 0.

  • Just trying. Is it possible to use the same buuton for th seat belts. If I selest INC, I can only get seatbelts on. Must I use another. Otherwise I prefer a switch, if possible.

  • The .....DEC command with send the knob the other way.
  • So it's necessary to use 2 rotary buttons. I'll try with a switch!
    Yves
  • No, use the ANTICLOCKWISE event with DEC and CLOCKWISE with INC.

    Its not the sane as the PMDG aircraft where you only set one event, you have to set two events sometimes (ON and OFF, CLOCKWISE and ANTI-CLOCKWISE)

  • Today I have time to try.
    If I understand, I must program 2 events for 1 button? How do I manage this.
    I'm sorry but Y do not understand!

    Thanks
    Yves
  • Where you pick an event, to the left of it you will see a small drop down list which will contain event states such as ON/OFF/HOLD or CLOCKWISE/ANTI-CLOCKWISE. Pick one and assign the event to it.

    Don't assign OFF events to GoFlight push buttons because once you release the button, the OFF event will fire. Do use OFF events for GoFlight switches.

    Best wishes
    Steve
