Hello from Austria!

Years ago I built a MotorizedThrottle together with a friend. It consists of two levers and a trimwheel which are motorized by DC-motors 30V.
Additional there are an airbrake- and a flaps-axe.

We used the DC-Motor card from OpenCockpits and an I/O card.

The program I wrote in SIOC is based on some scripts from Manuel Velez from OC.

Everything run well for many years.

Two years ago came FS2020. It was not difficult to adapt the program for it.

But now, with PMDG Boeing 737-700 the problems started:
PMDG makes a big secret about the variables. Only outputs are available, no inputs.

So after some frustating weeks I found the solution here with the programs for the connection to OpenCockpits.

But: the program code for PMDG 737 ist very large and it was very hard for me to avoid interferences with my throttle program.

After many tries I stopped programming, because it was quite impossible to find some gaps for my program.

But after long searches in many groups I found an easy solution now:

I start my script with SIOC 5 (as usual) and the script for PMDG737 with SIOC 7.

Only the IOCP_Ports must be different: in SIOC7 I use 8092, in SIOC5 8093.

At first I start FSUIPC7, then SIOC5, then IOCDCmotors, then SIOC7 and at last OiPMDG737

I think you can start both scrips with two instances of SIOC7 too.

All run very good but some variables for the Throttle are still missing. Therefor the AutoThrottle has some interrupts while flying.
Eg. the address for TOGA is not active for the throttle (althoug set in cockpit).

I hope that we get the missing variables after publishing the SDK from PMDG soon.

The script for the MotorizedThrottle I will send as freeware later.

PMDG makes a big secret about the variables. Only outputs are available, no inputs.

Here is a list of Events(inputs) for the Control Stand (TQ) tha can be used with the PMDG 737 driver software(OiPMDG737)

All Controll Stand settings can be controlled via these SIOC events:

using value -1 will work for most of them

2321 = CONTROL_STAND_AT1_DISENGAGE_SWITCH
2322 = CONTROL_STAND_AT2_DISENGAGE_SWITCH
2323 = CONTROL_STAND_ENG1_START_LEVER
2324 = CONTROL_STAND_ENG2_START_LEVER
2325 = CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER
2326 = CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_0
2327 = CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_1
2328 = CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_10
2329 = CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_15
2330 = CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_2
2331 = CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_25
2332 = CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_30
2333 = CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_40
2334 = CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_5
2335 = CONTROL_STAND_FWD_THRUST1_LEVER (use 2815)
2336 = CONTROL_STAND_FWD_THRUST2_LEVER (use 2816)
2337 = CONTROL_STAND_HORN_CUTOUT_SWITCH
2338 = CONTROL_STAND_PARK_BRAKE_LEVER
2339 = CONTROL_STAND_REV_THRUST1_LEVER (use 2815)
2340 = CONTROL_STAND_REV_THRUST2_LEVER (use 2816)
2341 = CONTROL_STAND_SPEED_BRAKE_LEVER ( 8192 will move up, 16384 will move down)
2342 = CONTROL_STAND_SPEED_BRAKE_LEVER_DOWN ( -1 will set )
2343 = CONTROL_STAND_SPEED_BRAKE_LEVER_ARM ( -1 will set )
2344 = CONTROL_STAND_SPEED_BRAKE_LEVER_50PCT ( -1 will set )
2345 = CONTROL_STAND_SPEED_BRAKE_LEVER_FLT_DET ( -1 will set )
2346 = CONTROL_STAND_SPEED_BRAKE_LEVER_UP ( -1 will set )
2347 = CONTROL_STAND_STABTRIM_AP_SWITCH
2348 = CONTROL_STAND_STABTRIM_AP_SWITCH_GUARD
2349 = CONTROL_STAND_STABTRIM_ELEC_SWITCH
2350 = CONTROL_STAND_STABTRIM_ELEC_SWITCH_GUARD
2351 = CONTROL_STAND_TOGA1_SWITCH
2352 = CONTROL_STAND_TOGA2_SWITCH
2353 = CONTROL_STAND_TRIM_WHEEL ( 8192 will move up, 16384 will move down)


2815 = THROTTLE1_LEVER (0-16383 set Throttle1 Lever, - -4096 set REVERSE1 LEVER)
2816 = THROTTLE2_LEVER (0-16383 set Throttle2 Lever, - -4096 set REVERSE2 LEVER)


Control Stand outputs:

1814 = SPOILER_Lever
1815 = THROTTLE1_Lever
1816 = THROTTLE2_Lever
1817 = Stab_Trim

No reason for using FSUIPC then as it only put an extra layer of code without adding anything.

Thanks a lot!

You are welcome

Here is the script for motorized TQ. I do not know if it is complete. I guess it is a work in progress. It is a user script and it is not supported by by me.

Hi Hermann,

Even though your post is a little old, I would like to know if you managed to make your throttle dcmotors work correctly with the A/T and TOGA of the PMDG737 in MSFS2020.

In my simulator I use a REV TQ that uses two dcmotor boards from Opencockpit and both work with a SIOC script as well. As I am migrating from Project Magenta to the PMDG737 and I came across the problem with the autopilot offsets, not knowing how to resolve the issue to get them working as before.

If you don't mind sharing your script to test in my sim, I would be very grateful as all I have to do is get the dcmotors working for the accelerators with A/T and the speebrake UP after landing.

I was able to make the axis for flaps and speedbrake to work with the PMDG events with a help of a friend, as the throttles and reversers are working correct with the same script I used with Project Magenta running P3D4.5, without touching inside the script.

Best regards,
Charlie

Hello Charlie,

very sorry for the long delay. I didnot receive a message that you wrote and I did not visit the site for a long time.

The throttle runs well with PMDG 737, only TOGA or N1 is not working, you must lift off by hand throttle. Later everything work, both levers and elevator trim.

With PMDG 777 TOGA and N1 work well, but the script for it is not fully operational. But I am still working on it.

I hope, that ROAR can help me with 737 and TOGA/N1, because both are showen in PFD but not at the MCP output.

I will send you the latest script. I works only for Standard planes and both PMDG 737 and 777. All other planes I removed from the script.
