Falcon MFD Software for android tablets
-
Is the keyfile selected in the BMS setup?
-
yes i did
-
Okay…Did you tie your App to the keyfile in BMS?
-
with server program?
-
Hold one, let me turn my computer on.
-
On the Server, you will see “Find Key File”. Did you tie to the keyfile I sent you?
-
i have launched the MFDserver with your key file.i’ve chosen that on Falcon BMS.i disabled firewall i checked all permissions to MFDserver.and still same i can see MFDs but cannot using buttons on tablet.

What does the first line in the box on the right say? Mines say “SimFuelSwitchTest” I also have no yellows or reds.

‘‘SimFuelSwitchTest’’ says please add to your key file in red and at last line.‘‘simhsicrsdecby1’’ on first line
and also everthing like ‘‘target … not set’’ etc… on ‘‘call sign data’’ window on testin part screen . -
Lets move to email. Please check email.
-
Checking back in…any chance of a future update allowing for a resize of the windows?
I’d really love to use this on my 7” kindle fire for the excellent ICP interface, but the ICP/MFD windows in the app only display at roughly half the available size of the screen, making them almost unusable.

Hi Komurcu, i have a personal keystoke created. FalconMDF server don’t work with they.
There are any option.
Thank.
sorry for my english. -

Just got it all working last night. Thanks to Komurcu for a really good solution to the problem of easy-to-use MFD’s.
Really not difficult, but getting all the new keys defined took me a while, plus of course the 0x/0X issue. My advice to others is don’t fiddle for ages with the software, all it really needed for me was to set my bms keyfile & tablet IP in the server app, then set my PC’s IP in the tablet app and it just works.
What confuses people like me is that unless you are running the full 4.33 keyfile (and why would you unless you have a simpit, in which case you don’t need this app!) you need to make sure you have all the keys defined in Komurcu’s list on Post#1 with no undefined key-presses. This is what you see when you load your keyfile into the server app and see RED or YELLOW lines. A red line is a missing callback and a yellow one means a callback with no keystroke defined.
Below is the list of callbacks I had to append to Snelle’s excellent x55 keyfile, available here. Note that I just did a find/replace to change all the 0x’s in the key-press sections to 0X cos I was too lazy to do it only for the new callbacks and it caused no problems. Then I defined a bunch of random key-presses to the new callbacks with the CTRL+ALT+SHIFT modifier to avoid conflicts and then everything worked perfectly. There are many different keyfiles in use so we will all have to do some editing but that’s just part of the BMS Falcon learning curve, isn’t it?
Thanks to the many posts in this thread steering me in the right direction and again to Komurcu for this clever design. Many of the links to help files etc are broken so I thought I’d summarise my own solution.

Just wondering: My lenovo a-10 tablet shows it’s got the client version 1.6.5 installed while the latest version linked in the 1st post says 1.6.4.
All the best, Uwe

Komurcu,
Since several moths the ICP do not respond when I press a key, for example 1. The MFDs works fine. Now I have time to try to fix it so I start testing and at the “Incoming Msg List” appears the following msg: (SimICPTILS) Key Does not match. When I check the log file:SimICPTILS@21111. I am using the profile: BMS_FuL_&_Morphine_paddle_swap.key and I have a friend that is using the same profile and works everything fine. Any idea to fix it?

Komurcu,
I just loaded BMSFalconMdfServer.key instead of BMS_FuL_&_Morphine_paddle_swap.key and most runs correctly. Some like COM1, COM2, etc do not work and the A pilot make strange things. I believe is a matter of assign the correct key
