This file describes in further detail how to include the JELAIR-Vspeed gauge in your various aircraft:

(a modified 'panel.cfg' file for the default FSX Boeing-747 (b747_400) is also included in this directory (remember to backup your existing panel.cfg file before making any changes to your installation))



Here's how to manually add the gauge to your other aircraft:

First add this entry in the beginning of the panel-config file (in the section called: [Window Titles] )

[Window Titles]
window07=JELAIR-Vspeeds

The window number (07 in this example) should be changed to the next succeeding number (if the last/highest entry in your panel file is 06, then you should label the new window 07)


Then scroll down through the panel-config file's various window-entries (each defined by a line like this: [Window07] (starts with window00, then 01, 02 etc)) and add the new section.

In this example the section just above window07 would be window06 (the first line of that section would show: [Window06] (if the last window is not 06, but instead window05, you should change the 07 here to 06 (the number should match the number you wrote in the top of the file, in the section [Window Titles] )))


[Window07]
Background_color=0,0,0 
size_mm=250,25
position=5
visible=0
ident=70

gauge00=dsd_fsx_xml_sound!Sound,  2,2,5, 5, .\Sound\JELAIR-sounds\JELAIRsounds.cfg
gauge01=JELAIR!JEL-Vspeed, 0,0,250,25



------------------------------------

Here's a break-down of what the individual lines mean:

[Window07]
This is the progressive window-number.

Background_color=0,0,0 
This is the gauge background-color (it determines whether it will be transparent or not)

size_mm=250,25
This is the gauge window pixel-size. If you want the gauge to appear larger in your panel, you should edit this number. It is "width, height". The JELAIR-Vspeed gauge's default-size is 250x25.

position=5
This is where the gauge will be shown on the panel-screen. 5 is middle-right (0 is top-left, 7 is bottom-middle, 8 is bottom-right, and so on)

visible=0
0 means the gauge is not visible at start-up, but must be selected by you manually. If you change this value to 1, the gauge will automatically open when the panel is opened.

ident=70
This is the window-identifier. It must _not_ be the same as any other window-identifier in the panel-file. If you find that another window is using 70 as ident, then you _must_ change either that window's ident to another number, or this window's ident to another number. You can write any number, as long as it is a unique number that only this window have.

gauge00=dsd_fsx_xml_sound!Sound,  2,2,5, 5, .\Sound\JELAIR-sounds\JELAIRsounds.cfg
gauge01=JELAIR!JEL-Vspeed, 0,0,250,25

These 2 lines are the gauge's and there locations. Dont change these values, change the 'size_mm=250,25' (look above) instead, if you want to resize the gauge.
These values should only be modified if you are moving this gauge to another window, and you need to resize it to fit in among other gauges. But as long as this gauge is located here in it's own window, these values should match those of 'size_mm=250,25' (look above)
