Hi Bob-

Well here I go again, showing off my intelligence ;)

When I click on the 'CM Editor' icon I get the following screen:

"The CM Editor is only available if you've included the CMS controls in your map or have specified a Command file on the Program Settings Tab"

As you can tell Bob, I haven't progressed very far in my venture to assign Button 11 on the TQ to change Modes. Can you please 'help'......again?

By the way, I just received my replacement TQ from Paula at FS Central, and it appears to be working just fine.

Thanks a lot,
Howard

Hi Howard,

Sure, easy deal. You just need to add the CMS "Controls" to the map. Click the "Add" button (5th from the left, green "+" sign on a joystick icon) just like you were going to add a joystick or throttle to the map. The selection at the bottom of the list will be "CMS Controls". Add those, you'll get a tab for them just to the right of the tabs for the other controllers. To add the Mode Control, you won't need to assign anything on the CMS Controls tab, but you have to have it in the map to enable the editor.

Great! Have fun with it!

Best regards,

Thank you Bob, it's been a long time since I have tried some of this.

Also, my 'senior moments' seam to be increasing in frequency. ;)

Best,
Howard
