Hi Simmers,

I have an oc pedestal bought in the light version. I added the audio panel for the First Officers side. As well I bought an ADF for the First Officers side. Problem, PMDG don´t have a ADF for FO side in their pedestal implemented. Is it anyhow possible to get this right hanfd side ADF running? Maybe adding lines in the script?

Also on the audio panel FO side PMDG didn´t programm the 1-VHF knob to be activated. Only 2-VHF is active. Any solution to get the 1-VHF running, too?

As PMDG did not implemeted these function in their 737 model there is no way a hardware module can change that.

You can always set the hardware module in an active state by e.g. mirror it with the left side module.

thanx for the info...... nice solution! I´ll give it a try ...

Hi Roar,


the easiest way themes to be the mirror of the Master. In my 737.ini following digits are present:

[PMDG B737]
CONFIG_FILE=C:\SIOC\Oi4FS\PMDG B737 v7.0PED.ssi
USBServos=40,112
MASTER=32,20,2,114

I have no idea which digits are needed for the mirroring?! Cause in the topic i read the both masters were 10 and 20?! DDo you have any idea? The other topic with the huge script adding seems to be not the right one for me, cause the code writer said, that while turning the knob to tune the freq in ADF is tuning the active not the standby freq. The topic is from 2015 (2018). Today the standby freq is tuning when rotating the knob. So the code seems for me to be outdated?!

greets Klaus

Hi Roar,

I try to mirror ADF1 to ADF2 but as I wrote I am a bit lost . Can you give me a hint which device my ADF2 might be when ADF1 is Device 32.. And when I understand correctly, it is not enough to add the mirror line in the pmdg 737.ini, I also have to add the huge code found in another threat for ADF 2 ?!

---> FOUND in another threat to add in the pmdg 737.ini:


MASTER=10,10,1,35
MASTER=20,10,1,37

Hi Klaus

There are two types of connections for Opencockpits pedestal modules. USB and IDE.

The light version pedestal you have bought is IDE connection and therefore all modules within the pedestal will have the same device number, this being 32 (Excluding the Rudder Trim which uses a Servo card, Device 40). USB modules have their own device number which is why the script you tried didn't work, unless you change all devices in the script to 32. The person who posted the script has USB type modules.

You don't need to change the MASTER entry in your 737.ini file. Keep it as MASTER=32,20,2,114

Paste this into your script, starting at VAR 0574

The rotary & transfer button don't work on ADF 2, it's just the digits/display that are mirrored .

Hi Ian,

you are the godfather of SIOC !! .... thanx so match! I will give it a try next few days and report the result.


greets Klaus

Hi Ian,

Bämmmm.... it works .... thanx a lot!! I would never have been able to do it myself !!!

greets klaus ...

So I just got a pedestal with original OC IDC connectors and have found out the hard way that the new script 7.0 was essentially written for the USB version of the pedestal module were all the modules have different device numbers. The output and input numbers are so different from the OC defualt numbers.
I just happened to look at the script version 6.5 and looks like that was written for the IDC pedestal connection where all the modules are connected to device 32.
Is there by any chance the script version 6.5 would work with the current software or I would have to painstakenly edit everything in the 7.0 to get it to work. Currently only two modules on the pedestal works Cargo Fire and Wx Radar.
I am trying to understand this topic to help me fix my pedestal not working.
The section of the pedestal in the script is completely different.
Am I missing something??

Eg from script 6.5

Var 0573, name D_AC_COM2, Link IOCARD_DISPLAY, Device 32, Digit 64, Numbers 6 // COM2 active

Var 0574, name O_AC_COM2DP, Link IOCARD_OUT, Device 32, Output 75 // Decimal Point

Var 0575, name D_ST_COM2, Link IOCARD_DISPLAY, Device 32, Digit 70, Numbers 6 // COM2 standby

Var 0576, name O_ST_COM2DP, Link IOCARD_OUT, Device 32, Output 75 // Decimal Point

Now from script 7.0

Var 0574, name D_A1Act, Link IOCARD_DISPLAY, Device 10, Digit 0, Numbers 5

Var 0575, name D_A1Act5, Link IOCARD_DISPLAY, Device 10, Digit 4, Numbers 1

Var 0576, name O_A1ActDp, Link IOCARD_OUT, Device 10, Output 20

Var 0577, name D_A1Stb, Link IOCARD_DISPLAY, Device 10, Digit 5, Numbers 5

Var 0578, name D_A1Stb5, Link IOCARD_DISPLAY, Device 10, Digit 9, Numbers 1

Var 0579, name O_A1StbDp, Link IOCARD_OUT, Device 10, Output 21

Var 0580, name ADFSymbol1, Link IOCARD_OUT, Device 10, Output 22

Var 0581, name ADFSymbol2, Link IOCARD_OUT, Device 10, Output 25

Var 0582, name ANTSymbol1, Link IOCARD_OUT, Device 10, Output 23

Var 0583, name ANTSymbol2, Link IOCARD_OUT, Device 10, Output 24

If you read the OiPMDG737 driver README documentation that came with Oi4FS24, it says:

Configuration
The OiPMDG737 driver supports the Opencockpits B737 modules:
OVH_AFT, OVH-FWD, MCP, EFISs, CDUs, MIP, PEDESTAL(IDC) or USB P&P
COM1-2, NAV1-2, ADF1, ATC, AUDIO1-2 and FIREPANEL. User-built solutions based
on Opencockpits IOCARDs are also supported, but you will need to make some minor
modifications to the script.
PMDG B737 v7.0.ssi
for users that have Opencockpits USB Modules like COMs, NAVs, ADF, ATC, AUDIO
and FIREPANEL.
PMDG B737 v7.0PED.ssi
for users that have the factory build Opencockpits PEDESTAL module that connects the
Pedestal sub-modules with IDC connections.
