• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Hi there, i want (throught my dotnet windows application ) sent keystrokes remotly to FSX . we have build a hardware solution forthe controlpanel of our simulated airplane.
now i get the hardwarecommands and want send the correspond keystroke to fsx.( i use the mooney bravo airplane and want send keystrokes for example to the radio group)

is there anywhere a solution . because with the normal sendkeys (sendinput) i doesn'nt work.

is there any api in fsx or any solution in the fsx sdk that i can use ?

greetings martin
 
hi Simon853, thanks for your reply. is there any sample in the sdk (i have'nt yet installed) .
i need for example send C and then SHIFT and + to the radio group.
greetings martin
 
Yes, there is an example. I think it's called "Input Event". You may need to mess with it and set up your simconnect.ini (I think that's what it's called) if you're going to run it on a remote PC. (I've not done that. I've only run local SimConnect clients.)

is there a way to do this via xml

No, for the simple reason XML scripts can only run inside FSX. Your remote computer presumably does not have FSX loaded, so...

The only possible way is to code a simconnect application that may be run as a stand-alone program, and that means C++, VB, C# or somesuch.
