• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

Switch Panel for T-37 MicroSimulator

After much searching and testing and retrying and more testing, I finally (with the assistance of some folks at FSDeveloper) got the start switches on my panel to function as they should. Engine start is accomplished (both engines) in well under 60 seconds. The image below shows all the switches I've included. If anyone wants this let me know and I'll post a link. . .if not, that's fine too. . .I just wanted something for my own use and this was the end result. Note however (I found out the hard way) you must still have the engine control panel loaded. It doesn't have to display, but if you remove it completely, nothing will start or at least it wouldn't for me.
 
I'm interested. Try as I may I cannot get this thing to stay ignited for more than a few seconds.
 
Ok, I've attached the needed cab file and bitmap, plus a readme. . . .please read it, as the sequence must be followed for startup to work correctly.

I mention these in the readme, but it's important to state them here as well:
MIXTURE must be set to full Rich
FUEL SWITCH must be open, despite how it looks on the panel (I replaced the ones shown in the above image), if you push the switch up it is actually shutting off the Fuel Supply. . .DON'T TOUCH

Also, there is a panel config in the zip but it's only for the sections that need to be added for the panel. Add those to your current panel.cfg file in their respective positions and remember to renumber if necessary.

That's it. . .any problems I'm here all the time.
