MCP v2 from OC: Alt Intv how to activate?

[hermann2441]

Hello from Austria!

The MCP v2 has no Button for ALT INTV.
Is there a way to activate it nevertheless?

Thanks and regards

It can be done by adding a long push function for any of the MCP buttons, i.e. the ALT HLD.

Let a short push be ALT HLD and a long push be ALT INTV.

This can be done done by using the the same script logic as used in for the HGD / BANK code.

I do not have time for this myself, but it can be done yes.

See this topic. viewtopic.php?p=4213&hilit=ALT+INTV#p4213

Is it possible to press the ALT rotary switch to activate ALT INTV?
When i press it, it clicks. But I don't know the address of it.

The ALT rotary on my MCP v3 does not have a button and I hear no click. Check in SIOC Monitor to see if any button is activated when you click it. I doubt it will work.

There are push rotaries both on speed and alt. Both are connected to the board, but not shown as key.

When I add two buttons to the MCP and connect it to eg. Mobiflight board, could yout tell me the offsets for both Alt Intv and Speed Intv?
It's just an idea because it is not so good to have PMDG and connot use both buttons.
