LoupeDeck Live & CT plugin

You can disable “Dynamic Mode” on the Loupedeck to prevent that :slight_smile:
But you will have to switch manually between your profiles

Perfect. will do that. Thank you.

Hi,

Just a little update on the 3.0 development (WASM usage). The connection to the WASM is ready but including L:VARs in my current code is more difficult than expected. The first 3.0 will include lots of work from JesperJorg (fixes, improvents, VOR input, …) and a brand new customizable input :

The input code is heavily based on the MobiFlight code (thanks !)

I hope to release the 3.0 later today (cleaning code in progress)

Been looking for this, thank you very much for all your hard work!

Is there any plans to enable usage of custom icons (that change with status)?

I tried to set up a button that would display current aircraft status (heading, altitude etc) on a FBW A32NX, but couldn’t find an option on the customisable input. Is this due to the LVAR you’re trying to incorporate? Thanks.

Here is the list of my contributions to CaliBx’s fantastic Loupedeck plugin:

Bugfixes

  • Fixed new value for some cases of wrapping around when adjusting with an encoder
  • Corrected border for buttons when disabled
  • Fixed background image of Flashlight in Lights folder
  • Fixed rounding error in display of fuel remaining
  • Fixed rounding error of N1 values in the RPM input
  • Fixed rounding error in the gallons per hour display of the Fuel display
  • Fixed these two problems in the airliner dynamic folder:
    • The last two buttons could not be shown because there was no navigation to second page.
    • The four reset commands were not implemented. They are now implemented as in the AP folder.
  • When comparing the hPa value displayed by the barometer encoder with the weather display, they would often differ on the last digit. This has been fixed by improving the precision of the numbers both places.
  • Fixes for the Autopilot (earlier called Airliner) folder:
    • Fixed FLC button to be able to toggle Flight Level Change Mode
    • Shortened button names where they broke the borders
  • Fixes for waypoint display
    • Fixed the bearing value display
    • Made display of distance more accurate

Added Functionality

  • Added a new encoder for showing and adjusting VOR OBS
  • Added a weather display input
  • Added tuning of ADF frequencies to the NAV dynamic folder
  • Barometer encoder shows pressure in both InHg and hPa
  • Added a cockpit view folder that also supports setting custom views
  • Added a lights display input
  • ConnectionSimConnect can now also disconnect
  • RPM input can now show N2 too
  • RPM input can now handle propeller planes with 4 engines
  • Fuel display now also shows pounds per hour (default is kgph)
  • RPM input: for turbo props, Ng and RPM are shown
  • Weather display can show pressure in inHg as well as hPa. Default is hPa. Pushing the button toggles between hPa and inHg.

Other

  • Changed Barometer encoder push button to setting altimeter to current pressure rather than standard pressure
  • NAV frequency adjustment adjusts with step 0.05 rather than 0.01
  • Autopilot (earlier called Airliner) folder:
    • Renamed GPS button to NAV
    • Reordered the buttons so that the LNAV ones and the VNAV ones stand next to each other’s

Hello everyone,

I have since yesterday a Loupedeck live and I am trying to make a configuration for the Fenix A320.

To give an example I want to push the APU master button. I make the configuration:

But then in the simulator it does not work. What am I doing wrong?

I have the latest version of the Loupedeck application and the latest version of the plugin. I also have MobiFlight installed in its latest version.

Can someone help me? :wink:

Thanks!

I haven’t had any luck applying the new “misc. input” either. But the new version is still work in progress, so maybe this is expected. @CaliBx : what can we expect at this stage?

No problem for me with the Cessna 172.

Maybe there is a mistake with the A320.
I’ll try it this weekend

The exact same as this does not work for me. As for the other examples, I have tried, nothing happens. When I turn on debugging, I get the following trace in Visual Studio:

→ (thread 10, method RunCommand): Exec Asobo Cessna 172 Cessna 172/Engine Magneto_Switch_Start
→ (thread 10, method Transmit): Send 1823 with 1

And BTW: I haven’t had any luck with the PMDG Boeing 737. I think that either you have forgotten to checkin all needed files, or I have accidentally made it not work with one of my checkins.

About a month ago, I made the following change:

because I did not have the file MobiflightCnxStateInput.cs

Can that be the cause? Could it be that you forgot to check in this file?

I don’t think, as I used the one from the link not the compiled one.
Did you initiate the connexion with an “old” input before using the new one ?

Sorry but I do not understand. What “Old” one and what “new” one? And which link are you referring to?

Old = all input except the customizable input.
This new input doesn’t trigger the connection to MSFS when used, so you have to use an other input to init the connection then you can use the customizable input.

Ah Ok. Yes I was indeed connected and other inputs worked well. Only misc does not have any effect. You did not answer my question about the missing source file.
