OI4FS2024 Duspanel and Servo Gauges - sisoffi - 05-16-2026

Hi everyone,

first of all, congratulations for the excellent work on OI4FS2024.
The software connects perfectly with the PMDG 737 under Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and overall it looks like a very solid and promising solution.

However, we are currently experiencing a couple of important issues with our OpenCockpits setup and we would like to understand if we are missing something in the configuration.

1. Overhead switches affecting DU selectors / GPWS tests
Sometimes, when operating certain switches on the overhead panel, the DU selectors on both CPT and FO sides suddenly change position/state by themselves, and at the same time the GPWS warning tests start triggering (WINDSHEAR, PULL UP, etc.).
This behavior appears random and is extremely annoying during operation.
Has anyone experienced something similar?
Could this be related to overlapping offsets/events or incorrect variable mapping?

2. Servo gauge configuration problems
We are also having major issues configuring the servos.
Compared to the original standard OpenCockpits configuration package, we only managed to discover that:
  • Servo 1 for EGT is actually driving the Fuel indication instead.
But overall, all gauges appear completely mismatched and incorrectly assigned/calibrated.

So our main questions are:
  • How are the servos supposed to be configured correctly in OI4FS2024?
  • Is there a reference mapping table available for OpenCockpits gauges/servos?
  • Do we need to manually remap every servo output?
  • Is there a calibration procedure or recommended setup method?
Any help or documentation would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

The DU issue has been a long time issue not completly solved in the driver/script yet. As i don't have the home cokcpit up and running anymore it is hard for me to troubleshot this issue. I know it has been debated in the old forum. If anyone found I fix for it I relaly don't know.
here is an old topic: 

https://forum.flightsim4fun.com/NF/viewtopic.php?t=1107

YOu should also go to SIOC's IOCPConsole and try to figure out wheat is causeing/ interfering 

To calibrate your servos read the thread from the old forum
https://forum.flightsim4fun.com/NF/viewtopic.php?p=4171&hilit=servo+calibration#p4171


Also look into the old forum for more help, there are tons of info there.

Hope this helps you

Hi,
I had knob mismatch on the OVH as well and I'm in direct contact with another user who had DU knob mismatch on the MIP. We had the mismatch problems mainly after lights tests and after change of el. states. (e.g. switching to APU power or switching off battery). I could solve for both of us because causes were the same.

Before I can try to help you, I need some information:

1) do you have knob mismatch after switching lights test on or off? Sometimes several lights tests are neccessary to reproduce the problems)

2) do you have knob mismatch after el. state change?

3) do you have some annunciators connected to the 7 additional outputs on the P2 connector of one or more mastercards (output 49 ... 55)?
