Integrated Simavionics group 1 (ISG1)

Documentation:
---------------------------------------

The complete Documentation files for ISG are located in the FS(9 or X)/ISG/Docs folder.

Requirements:
---------------------------------------
Windows XP 
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2000 or Microsoft Flight Simulator X

The Fuel Loading feature requires FSUIPC, but the rest of the features
will work fine without it.

Installation:
---------------------------------------

To Install ISG1 into an FS9 or FSX aircraft requires editing the
the panel.cfg file for the aircraft and adding the ISG1!.. gauge
references to the file.

The details of this are mostly beyond the scope of this document. But below is
a simple example of manual install into the Lear45 panel.

1) In FS9 go to the 'Aircraft/Lear45/Panel' folder.

2) Make a backup copy of the panel.cfg file.

3) Open the panel.cfg file with a text editor such as notepad.

4) In the [Window00] section...
 
   Edit the  'gauge13=Lear_45!EICAS, 255, 76'  line.

   Comment the line out by placing 2 forward slashes in front of it

   // gauge13=Lear_45!EICAS, 255, 76'  line.

   Insert this line just below it.

   gauge13=isg1!P1000_MFD,  254,75,188,257,LEAR45


5) Save the panel.cfg file, and re-load the aircraft, you should then
   see the new ISG MFD displayed on the main panel in place of where the EICAS
   gauge is normally displayed in the default gauge.

6) Coordinate wise, this is the meaning of the panel.cfg setting

   ...=isg1!P1000_MFD,  254,75,188,257,LEAR45

   254,75  the x/y position relative to the upper left cordner of the main gauge bitmap (ie . 275 pixels across, 75 pixels down).
       
   ,188,257  The width and height of the gauge in pixels.
   ,LEAR45   This tells ISG what aircraft is currently loaded.
   
   See more details for these settings in the ISG1 'Settings' documentation.



A recommended tool to use for easier installation of gauges into panels is 'FS Panel' studio.
This utility contains a drag and drop interface allowing for easy placement and sizing of
gauges into panels.
