Real life messing around again

I need to do some further testing to understand from where the problem come. I left the sim apart some time ago. Next weekend I'll come back to home from xmas holydays and I'll try to complete the final version of the .pp files with the best working fix. If you would have access to the A10 in the trial mode you could compare the working behaviour of my pp files and your pp files, which are the configured as expected following the DCS-BIOS commands logic. If @bzhnono could do a quick test with the A10 radios we could have more info about this and know if I'm doing something wrong or is happening something more

I have some advanced work with the UFC, landing gears, refuel hatch, master, laser, pac1 arm, tacan, ils, hmd, night visor, and fast radio preset channel selector. I had a full CDU made in a dedicated page and a cold and dark start up page but I lost both because I'm a donkey... Also I have a dedicated page for radios, but DCS-BIOS is doing s/thing wierd and the commands sended from DCS-COINS didnt work as expected. I'll love if you could try to work with the radios to confirm my suspicions or confirm that I'm doing s/thing wrong.

Ok thanks I totally missunderstand what was doing. I think that opening TP while simulation is unpaused you get an updated state of the aircraft

How it's working the "Reset Aircraft States"? I have a button with this action but when I push it the buttons on the current page didn't syncronize with the airplane status. Also I have linked the event of connection to airplane is ON to dispatch the action but never get the airplane data synched

Thank you very much for review this subject buddy and for the clear explanation. I'll try the UHF configurartion.

@xoomigo How is mean to be used the new "Reset Aircraft States" action and what is the function of this action? Because I have included in one button of my A-10C page and I don't see any change when the connection is On

I'm now in DCS-COINS 3 and it's working in the same way. I have attached my slightly tunned files so you can check it. A-10C.pp aircraftEnums.dat

Yep, a big one

Yes mate, I have the pp file like you and this command ([UHF_PRESET_SET 3]) increase the current preset value in 3 if you're in the channel 1 the selector spin until it reach the channel 4 and I couldn't make the move the selector backward because the command always increase the current channel. But the UHF preset selector is the worst to try this. I can't make it pass the channel 2. However both VHF preset selectors behave as I noted before so I have changed the |1|0| by |3|0| so the command cand send [VHF_PRESET_SET +1] or [VHF_PRESET_SET -1] always doing the steps one by one and "in theory" allowing to move the preset backwards but this part either not works. Another thing that didn't work very well is to include the current preset channel selector as text in one button. I have try the Dynamic Text Updater, or to store the channel in a TP value as any kind of data allowed and then use this value as source for the text of the button but always get a fixed number that don't change no matter I do. @virgo47 reading your posts I guess that you are working also with the A-10C, had you try to setup the radios in TP with DCS-COINS?

Those requested values are 1 because dcs-bios add the current preset channel value to the commanded preset channel value to calculate the desired preset channel value. In the UHF I cant move ahead of channel 02, but in both VHF if I set the commanded value to 2, the preset jump in steps of 2 and so on, this is because my last post With the action type set to 3, thed cs-coins command add +1 or substract -1 to the current value and the VHF presets move fine when increasing but doesnt move when decreasing but looks like a dcs-bios problem. But in UHF dcs-bios tool can manage correctly the increasing and decreasing values but dcs-coins get stucked in the preset 02 and dont go ahead or backward

@xoomigo I have tunned the A-10C.pp file setting the UHF and both VHF preset channel selectors "action type" field to 3. This allow me to go forward in both VHF preset channels, but not backwards. This happens also with the live preview tool of DCS-BIOS so I guest that the problem comes from DCS-BIOS. But the UHF preset channel selector only advance to the 02 channel and doesn't bo backward, with the DCS-BIOS tool I can go freely forward and backward.

I have noted that if you force a reconnect from the desktop application, client get updated. I have asked in the TP discord if the reconnect could be invoked from a button in somehow

I'm having an issue with the UHF preset channel selector The logic of the button is like this But the device in the cockpit only change one time from channel 01 to channel 02 The vervose mode report this

I don't know if could be created an event that refresh all the events in the current page if the aircraft connecton is On
