Problem with AP disconnect on Stick

[dkreiskott]

Hi all,

I have a problem with the AP disconnect Button on my Sidesticks.
If I press the AP disconnect button, the AP disconnects, but at the same moment there is an AP take over.
Same on both sides. And the button is pressed short.
Any ideas?

Hello Dieter,
I had same problem,I wrote in a doc file all the difficulties and ways to get around them in what I call an Alphabetic List....

I wrote at A:
-APTO cpt and fo on interface card of the respective Hotas Stick, not successful or Jeehell bug on FMGS_Config then managed by FSUIPC (Gear) same Offset but x18, x19 and x1A, x1B
and at G letter:
-Gear, switch Train connected to BODNAR BU0386 card (PC instruct) btn 7, configured in D:\A320FMGS\FMGS Server of the Master PC pad Joysticks Buttons. Actually no! It's crap at the programming logic level then: managed with FSUIPC buttons/switches (fsuipc6.ini) press → offset x78ED x52(82) and released x51 (81).

Surely I am unable to understand how to do it with fmgs_config but I am like you I can't do it. However, using the FSUIPC OFFSETS and the button declaration interface it works.
There must be a reason for this malfunction but here I am 'dry', if JL says that it works, he is right. We probably have something in common that causes us to have the same problem.

You need to have a switch pushed and a switch released event declared.

Hi Jean Luc,

yes, after configure the release event the AP disconnect works.
But, I press and hold the button on the CPT stick, then the warning “priority left” comes up.
On the FO side the red arrow comes on, but only until I release the button, then the red arrow is off again.
Actually it should stay on, right?

No except if you latch priority, which takes 45s I think
