OC MCP V2 PMDG digits not synchronising[SOLVED]

Post by Andi71 »

Hi

I' have issues with my MCP V2 and PMDG FSX Steam edition.
I start my FSX with PMDG and then start the OC4BA.
The MCP lights up and the digits in the OC MCP and in the PMDG are synched.
When i rotate the knobs on the OC MCP the digits in the PMDG MCP are jumping back and forward (seems that the PMDg/FSX is adjusting back the inputs from the OC-MCP).
When i adjust e.g. the heading in the PMDG MCP the OC MCP numbers are changing correctly and display the selected heading .

in other words:

Adjusting on the OC-HW--> not synching correctly
Adjusting with mouse in FSX/PMDG --> synching correctly

Would be great if somebody can help me.

What is the version numbers of OC4BAv4 and OCP4NGX driver?

DO you have the latest PMDG B737NGX version? Check in PMDG Operational Center.

Hi

OC4BAv4 is ver 4.4.0.0
Ngx is ver 4.4.2.0
I updated in the pmdg oc to the latest version but still it is not working

When i turn the knobs on the oc mcp very slow (1 click every 3 seconds) the digits in the pmdg mcp are synching.
But i cant turn the knob faster.

Would be great to get the thing working.
Struggling since a few days now.

The problem you are seeing is releated to your PC and/or its installed programs in some way.

1. Try to change USB connection port to your MCP. ( Remember to make a new configuration in OC4BAv4/Config).

if not improving

2. Try to do as this link tells, viewtopic.php?f=15&t=569

if not improving

If you have one of the latest NVIDIA versions installed and/or one of the latest Windows 10 versions also try:

Click the mouse pointer so the FSX main window lose focus( FSX window goes to non-active mode) and then check the rotary function and syncing.

ALSO very IMPORTANT if you have Windows 10: INSTALL SIOC 6

Hi

Finally (after a few hours of try and error) it works
To start fsx as admin did the trick.
