To Ketadone,

Your video of the configuration setup looks correct.

Check in the SIOC/IOCPConsole if you have any activities going on when you turn any of the MCP or ATC dials.

If there are no activities there is no connection between the hardware and the software for some reason.

What do you see in the LOG output?


The EFIS has very limited functions in this version. A new version that supports more functions will be sent out in the next few days.

I still got troubles with the ADF rotators.
The Display (Digits) are well corresponding with the Sim. If I dial in the Sim, its showing on the Modul.
But neither the rotaries nor the ADF/ANT are working. Also no Adf/Ant is shown on the Display.
Any hint?

Will you implement the Audio L Modul?
I can configer in the Oi4FS, but it doesnt work in and way.

Tried to modify the Sioc Script by adding the OC Audio Script.
But it didn‘t work, too.

I will look into the ADF issue. I also have it. Something broke after an MSFS update. The ADF/ANT is not supported as there is no SDK events for them in MSFS.

I am looking into the AUDIO panel for the next release. If possible, I will add in ssome of the functions.

The latest version of Oi4FS with the OIMS driver has been updated and now supports control of the G1000 avionics with the Opencockpits B737 CDU. The new update also has many improvements in the MCP and EFIS. A full list of supported functions can soon be found at www.flightsim4fun.com
This is for users that want to use their Opencockpits modules in MSFS when flying VFR with G1000 and similar avionics equipped airplanes until PMDG releases the PMDG 737 for MSFS.

I tried as you said using the new version 1.5 and still nothing.
I turned switches, buttons, rotary on the 3 modules but no log appear. Modules are detected but buttons, switch not working.

IOCP console : https://prnt.sc/xa0wfi

What do you mean about LOG output please ?

When you are in IOCPConsole as your image shows and push a button or turn a rotary, you should see the activity change some of the variables in the log screen.

Turn some buttons and copy the output and try to describe what you are doing to get the LOG output you show.

There are no activity on any "value" on any modules and tired to scroll down but same nothing.

IOCP console with ATC module exemple : https://prnt.sc/xavp18

To get the log, I do the tutorial first as it should be work, then click on the sioc logo on the right down corner and then on IOCP console like that https://prnt.sc/xaw37b

Your configuration and everything else looks OK.

Check SIOC's SIOC Monitor when Oi4FS is running and after you have started the driver by clicking the airplane image in Oi4FS.
Connect to MCP and turn a rotary. If you do not see any activity, the communication between your hardware and SIOC is not working.


Try to change the USB connection and make a new configuration. Then test again Also, make sure you have Power UNit connected to MCP.

See the image where I have turned the ATC rotary.

Great news it work ! Thanks you very much Roar !
Yesterday I decided to start over the tuto, and I noticed the Microsoft visual studio version, on the first install I used the x86, so I tried to install the x64 version and all work now !
I changed my usb too.
