ILS right frequency wheel woes.

[mooshim]

Can't do the landing mission (training mission) as I can't seem to change the right frequency to ".15".

 

Anyone else having trouble with this?

 

I hear a click. The base knob seems to be shifting to it's 3,6,9 and 12 oclock position using right and left click alternatively.

 

--nothing in the ILS window indicates a change. :cry:

 

Anyone with a suggestion with this?

 

Thanks.

I don't have any trouble with ILS Frequencies... I always use 108.90

The only button you should have to click is the on-off.

 

Using the mouse wheel for the right knob?

Clicking the switch turns the base of the knob, which controls power I think. You need to hover the mouse over the knob and use the mouse wheel to turn it.

Agree with this. Also, the right knob takes a lot of turning to move one increment, unlike the left knob. At first, I didn't think mine worked because I would twist it and nothing would change. Turns out, I just needed to roll it even more. Hope you figure it out

Thanks all for your help.

 

I've never used a mousewheel mouse.

 

I've always used a logitech trackball. I'm...uh...in love with my track-ball.

 

It's accuracy, is ease of use, it's smoothness...(sorry)

 

Hmm... I only have one...--does this mean I'm going to have to lose it to fly this sim?

 

Thanks again,

Get this, best of both worlds. :)

Back in the Ka-50 days I didn't like how many clicks it took to change the HUD brightness knob so I halved the sensitivity or so. It should be an easy LUA edit to make the mousewheel triathlon less demanding when cycling through the .XX digits.

 

For example the clickabledata.lua section regarding that knob shows:

elements["PTR-ILSCP-VOL"] = {
   class = {class_type.TUMB, class_type.TUMB, class_type.LEV},
   hint = "ILS frequency KHz / Volume",
   device = devices.ILS,
   action = {device_commands.Button_5, device_commands.Button_4, device_commands.Button_3},
   arg = {250, 250, 249},
   arg_value = {-0.1, 0.1, 0.1},
   arg_lim = {{0.0, 1.0}, {0.0, 1.0}, {0.0, 1.0}},
   relative = {false, false, true},
   animated   = {true, true, false},
   animation_speed = {-0.7, 0.7, 0.0},
   gain = {0.05, 0.05, 0.1}
}

 

I believe the first two entries in the arrays are for right and left clicks while the 3rd is for the mousewheel frequency control. So it should be an edit of either the gain or arg_value array.
