Certain keys in WinWing's Super Tarsus throttle can not be mapped despite registering
Closed this issue · 6 comments
I installed WinWing's Super Tarsus throttle. The alternative launcher is not allowing me to map certain direct X buttons - even though they are still displayed at the bottom, to the right of the assignment
label.
However, when I open a dialog to map, and press the key, nothing happens.
Some examples:
The speed brake switch on Win Wing is comprised of three DX switches:
DX20, momentary, used to extend
DX19, momentary, off position, default
DX18, hold, used to retract
Of these three buttons, only DX19 is mappable. The other 2 (DX20 and DX18) can't be assigned to a key, despite being picked up in the main GUI.
This happens with a few other buttons as well. The buttons are mappable in other software/sims and are visible in Windows manage USB devices.
Any help is appreciated !
Doing investigation now. Looks like there is a bug in KeyMappingWindow.xaml.cs::JoystickButtonMonitor::133
. For some reason the buttons[19] is equal to neutralButtons[5].buttons[19] even though it is being pressed. The value in the neutralButtons[5].buttons[19] is 128. 5 is device id for WinWing throttle.
The primary cause appears to be timing/multiple getNeutralPosition
calls. By having only a single getNeutralPosition
call on WindowLoaded appears to resolved my specific issue. I am curious, what is the benefit of having multiple calls to getNeutralPosition
inside JoystickButtonMonitor
?
Somewhat related, but I'm also having the same issue on a similar device, the WinWing Orion F-16EX. I was not able to map the paddle switch correctly; when the paddle is depressed it inputs DX8, and when it is released it inputs DX7. However, the Alternative Launcher does not seem to be able to read the DX8 input and only reads the DX7 input.

I have the Winwing control panels and I have problems binding 2-way/3-way toggles because the AL doesn't always see the keys. Where can I find the calls above such as getNeutralPosition?
ON-ON switch should be fixed now.
