Hi All,

In the setting tab with 45R I see 8 options.

What is the meaning of those options as i have only 2 rotaries?

I managed to get 1 rotary working but the manual is only generic and is not specific for GF-45.

Thanks!

    You can assign multiple configs to GF45 and then assign the button of another GoFlight device the Event GF45_KEY_DEVICE where is the Device ID of the GF45 unit concerned. Pressing this button will cycle the configs.

    Thanks Steve!

    Indeed want to have a button on my GF-P8 to cycle through the configs which i setup.

    I now installed version 2.0. What i discovered till now is the following:

    1. I setup the first option on the GF45 display. i.e. IAS speed.
    2. Then i setup the second option to display the Heading
    3. When i clicked on option one again it was not saved.
    4. I exported the xml and IAS speed setting was dissappeared

    Any clue what i am doing wrong here?

    Running X-Plane 11, Windows 7 Ultimate

    Thanks again

    Sounds like a bug. I'll investigate.

    Best wishes

    I reset the config and reloaded the xml and it works. Will do some more testing and feedback the info to you. Also I assigned a button on the P8 to cycle and that triggers the right setup.

    Let me know if you need something!

    Just one little question:

    How can i set the display on the GF45 to NOT display decimals behind the dot. So i.e. 218 and not 218.39 for speed or heading?

    See the ROUND light action, at the bottom of this article: https://www.pollypotsoftware.org.uk/support/user-guide/goflight-interface-tool-x-plane/34-concepts/84-light-actions.html

    I have just tested with the FSX and X-Plane versions and everything I selected was stored OK. Can you give me the steps to re-create the problem?

    Thx

    Thanks! for the decimal stuff.

    I reprogrammed it and works fine now. Try to do a test in the afternoon and if i found something will sent it to you.
  • admin_ppsadmin_pps
    OK
  • andrew777andrew777
    Understand the ROUND light action but i see that only with the GF-P8 and not with the GF-45 (45O).

    By the way... the P8 has only a Led per push button ;-)
  • admin_ppsadmin_pps
    You are right, it isn't available. I'll add it into GIT.
