Title: SIM A assignments
Post by: jskibo on March 12, 2011, 03:00:49 PM
OK, doing some more wiring and hit a snag...

I was trying to set assignments on my SYS4 board for Sim Avionics and can't find anything for the N1 switch positions.

I'm also lost as to what to set the MFD "ENG" and "SYS" buttons and LEDs as?  I see about 7 under MFD, but only Engine and no SYS.

A little confused on the Fuel Reset and Used positions as well.

Well, you never know though when they may be added in the future so I wired mine but left the wiring about 2 ft long and just wrapped up and stuffed up by the underside of the glare behind the MCP for future.   Fact is there arent enough inputs on the SYS4X I have anyway so I would have to add a larger card to support them if and when they do get wired.   So nice to have them wired and workable shoudl the time ever come.

Wiring is never for nothing John.  Had you not wired it, sure as eggs it would have been needed  ::)  Besides Mark may well introduce those functions in a near future update, at which time you'll have it all prepared.

Cheers,

Ken.

The SYS ENG should be interfacable as they mainly allow page changing on the EICAS

No?
