the pedestal can not be activated, who can help

If you have the OpenCockpits built Pedestal you have to link its Expansion/Master in OC4BAv4/Config's Modules to the Pedestal in the Operations.

That all.

If you have an owned built Pedestal that is not using the standard OC Pedestal number scheme for inut/inputs etc. you also have to modify the script.

This is all described in the documentation.

Tell me and the forum here if you succeed or need more info/help

this is my OC4Av4.ini and only the fire-panel is working - i have the original OC-Pedestal

what is the text in PMDG 737.ini and sioc .ini files?

Have you tested that the Pedestal modules is working OK in SIOC Monitor?

What is the IDXs of the Pedestal modules? See SIOC.exe Device screen.

Then modify your script for those parts that contains Pedestal functions so that they use Device number 32 and input/output and display numbers are the same as you find in the Pedestal documentation from Opencockpits.

The Servo in Pedestal should use either the Device number 39 or 41. I do not know which one is the Servo in the Pedestal.

I've made the changes, but the ads are not working properly. I checked the script twice and could not find an error.
some displays are working, but the ads are totally wrong and have no decimal point.

I do not know what you mean by ads.

If you have correct device and display/input/output numbers in the script it should work.

send the script you are using to roarkrsp@gmail.com, I I will have a look

I had a brief look at he script you sent me.

There are several faulty parameters in it. I.e dame display numbers fro all radios. Rotary numbers are wrong etc.

You have not done the modifiction correctly.

If you compare it to the list of inputs/outputs in the OC Pedestal documentation and the script you find the these faults easly.

The reason you Pedestal do not work correctly is that you the script is not set up correctly.

Change the script and it will work.

hello Roar
I have begun with the correction, and the pedestal works almost perfectly. there are still a few changes to make, but I will also create these. thanks to your help.
