Hi
If you still have problems with your EFIS module I suggest that you test it with SIOC/SIOC Monitor and verify that all inputs numbers are the same as in the OCP4NGX script for the EFIS.

Did you test the output numberings? And what did you got?
You can also test the EFIS with some test programs you can download from Opencockpits.
To me it looks like they have put a wrong PIC in the device.

Hi
Yes I have tested the buttons, all of the buttons on the EFIS work but how do I compare it to the scripts? Is it also possible to manually change the numbers to suit the script? The opencockpits test program does not detect the EFIS some how

Hi,
You can not change the output number to fit the script, but do the opposite, change the script numbers to fit the Hardware.
In sioc you go to edit_script and export to txt. then you find the efis part of script and compare
In SIOC Monitor you push all buttons. You will see the actual output numbers. Take a note of all and compare with the script and if
not the same, modify to fit the numbers you got in SIOC monior.
Then re compile
with what you
You also have to try with 7,4,1,194 in sioc.ini. This is as EFIS_CPT. The script is for the EFIS_CPT.

Hi
So all of the Inputs did not match the script and I have changed them accordingly... my problem now is how do I save it back to an .ssi script, as I use the compiler, select the file I have edited and save as OCP4NGX_PP_v1.2 but it does not seem to save.... Is there a way of doing this ?

Hi,
After you have edited the txt script file in notepad and saved it as a txt file, you load it in edit_config with import txt , compile it and save it eg. as OCP4NGX_PP_V1.2b.ssi.
Remember also to change the sioc.ini via the OC4BAConfig or directly in both 737sioc.ini and sioc.ini.
I have just sent you a link to the very last OCP4777X driver and script. It has script code for both EFIFs.

HI
Thanks I recieved the new scripts, ok im just about programmed all of the buttons however im unsure how to program the rotaries, on this EFIS There is dual rotaries which also have a pushbutton feature, any way to set that up and which lines to change for the BARO / MINS etc, For example when I move the rotary to change the baro in the SIOC monitor the lights up between 36 and 37

Hi,
BARO outputs are 23-24 and psuh button is 25 in the script.
MINS outputs are 20-21 and push button is 22 in the script.
These you cahnge to fit your outputs. Simple as that.
