HAT swith and elevator trim
Posted: Fri May 19, 2017 2:48 am
Just got a like new G940 (amazing actually in original packaging ) Also purchased FSUIPC. I'm using P3D. I want to use HAT switch for trim. Reading your documentation, I've NOT assigned elevator trim commands via FSUIPC. I've assigned the elevator trim via Profile Manager.
[General]
TrimClickAmount=100
TrimIndicator=0
PauseOnTaskSwitch=0
dwStartDelay=1
JoystickTrimUp=Rev1:POV:Logitech G940 Joystick:{E2DCACE0-376F-11E7-8005-444553540000}:0:18000
JoystickTrimDown=Rev1:POV:Logitech G940 Joystick:{E2DCACE0-376F-11E7-8005-444553540000}:0:0
PMWndPos=1519,451
DemoAreaInfo=1
Here is the thing...under FSUIPC Customers section of Documentation, you say I must assign trim normally in FSX as well as profile manager so FS Force can intercept the trim commands. Unfortunately P3D only sees HAT1, not all the 8 positions like Profile Manager and FSUIPC. Therefore, I can only assign HAT1 to either elevator up or elevator down. In order for trim to work, I can't assign it in P3D settings. It seems to work correctly without P3D assignments, but your documentation indicates I should have it assigned both in P3D and Profile Manager.
Is there a way to assign the individual HAT positions in P3D, through a config file for instance?
Thanks again for all the support!
