PMDG TECHNICAL SUPPORT

This SDK presumes familiarity with standard C++ coding practices and is
designed primarily for use by skilled software developers who are seeking
to interface with the PMDG 737NGX software.

Please understand that PMDG, PMDG Simulations and affiliates are

unable to provide coding assistance, advice or support for developers
seeking to use this SDK.

This SDK is provided on an “as-is” basis and is not subject to support or

revision by PMDG Simulations, LLC.

PMDG 737NGX SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT KIT

The purpose of the PMDG 737NGX SDK is to allow users a clean, simple
methodology for creating third party applications that interface with the
PMDG 737NGX series of software products.

This SDK is designed primarily with the intent to allow home-cockpit

hardware manufacturers to create simple interfaces so that their
hardware can be fully compatible with the PMDG 737NGX series of
products without having to plumb the depths of memory in search of bits.

We anticipate that other uses for this SDK will come forward that we have
not yet imagined, and we encourage creative parties to reach out to us if
there are specific items that they feel would enhance their ability to
provide after-market products to support the PMDG 737NGX line of
products.

Please understand that PMDG’s mission primarily is to provide software

to the community and as such we have very limited resources to provide
to after-market developers, but we will certainly hear and evaluate any
suggestions!

The PMDG 737NGX SDK provides an interface which can be used by

third party software to monitor the state of the PMDG 737NGX and to
control certain cockpit functions.

The SDK provides read-only access to a data block containing the state
of most PMDG 737NGX controls and indications. It also allows controlling
the PMDG 737NGX by triggering control events that request operation of
one or more items in the PMDG 737NGX.

The communication between the third party add-on application and the
PMDG 737NGX is done using the Microsoft SimConnect library that
comes standard with Prepar3D from Lockheed Martin. Please refer to the
SimConnect SDK documentation for advice on the creation of a
SimConnect application.

The NGX SDK includes an example SimConnect application written in

C++ that you may use as a starting point, but it is by no means a
complete or final authority on the subject of interfacing with SimConnect.

SDK CONTENTS
The PMDG 737NGX SDK includes the following files:

 PMDG_NGX_SDK.h is the SDK header file. It defines the data

structures and events used to communicate with the PMDG
737NGX. You should #include this file in your application.

 PMDG_NGX_ConnectionTest.cpp is an example application. It

demonstrates how to connect to the NGX via SimConnect, read
the state of several PMDG 737NGX switches and us different
methods to send control events to the PMDG 737NGX.

ENABLING DATA OUTPUT

The PMDG 737NGX is already set up to listen for control events that may
originate from an external application. However, since providing state
data to third party applications does consume a small amount of
processor attention, we have disabled this communication output by
default since the vast majority of our users will not be using SDK driven
applications.

To enable the data communication output, you will need to open the file
737NGX_Options.ini that is located in the folder <P3D
ROOT>\PMDG\PMDG 737 NGX

Once this folder is open, add the following two lines to the bottom of the
file:

[SDK]

EnableDataBroadcast=1

When you release your product to customers, it will be necessary for your
application installation to set this parameter on the customer’s installation,
else they will not see data connectivity between your application and the
PMDG 737NGX.

READING CONTROL AND INDICATOR STATES

The PMDG 737NGX keeps the state of most of its controls and indicators
in a data block that can be read by external applications. (Provided that
this capability is enabled, as described on the previous page.)

Your application will use SimConnect to request data from this block. The
contents of this data block are defined by struct PMDG_NGX_Data in the
PMDG_NGX_SDK.h file.

The members are self-explanatory and we have added comments to

clarify wherever the variable is not a simple boolean.

The PMDG_NGX_ConnectionTest.cpp sample code demonstrates the

access to the PMDG 737NGX.

For example, the following code from testCommunication() function

requests data from the PMDG 737NGX data block. The data is sent
whenever it changes:
// Associate an ID with the PMDG data area name
hr = SimConnect_MapClientDataNameToID (hSimConnect, PMDG_NGX_DATA_NAME,
PMDG_NGX_DATA_ID);

// Define the data area structure - this is a required step

hr = SimConnect_AddToClientDataDefinition (hSimConnect,
PMDG_NGX_DATA_DEFINITION,
0, sizeof(PMDG_NGX_Data), 0, 0);

// Sign up for notification of data change.

// SIMCONNECT_CLIENT_DATA_REQUEST_FLAG_CHANGED flag asks for the data to
be sent
// only when some of the data is changed.
hr = SimConnect_RequestClientData(hSimConnect, PMDG_NGX_DATA_ID,
DATA_REQUEST, PMDG_NGX_DATA_DEFINITION,
SIMCONNECT_CLIENT_DATA_PERIOD_ON_SET,
SIMCONNECT_CLIENT_DATA_REQUEST_FLAG_CHANGED, 0, 0, 0);

Then, the event dispatch procedure handles the PMDG 737NGX state
data sent by SimConnect:
void CALLBACK MyDispatchProc(SIMCONNECT_RECV* pData, DWORD cbData, void
*pContext)
{
// Receive and process the NGX data block
switch(pData->dwID)
{
case SIMCONNECT_RECV_ID_CLIENT_DATA:
{
SIMCONNECT_RECV_CLIENT_DATA *pObjData =
(SIMCONNECT_RECV_CLIENT_DATA*)pData;

switch(pObjData->dwRequestID)
{

{
PMDG_NGX_Data *pS =
(PMDG_NGX_Data*)&pObjData->dwData;
ProcessNGXData(pS);
break;
}
}
break;
}
}
}

// This function is called when NGX data changes

void ProcessNGXData (PMDG_NGX_Data *pS)
{
// test the data access:
// get the state of switches and save it for later use
if (pS->LTS_TaxiSw != NGX_TaxiLightSwitch)
{
NGX_TaxiLightSwitch = pS->LTS_TaxiSw;

SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT KIT

CONTROLLING THE PMDG 737NGX

Control Event Parameters:
Your application can operate the PMDG 737NGX controls by sending
special commands. These commands contain both a control event code
and a numeric parameter.

The control event code defines the aircraft control, switch, selector or
knob that is to be operated. The control events are listed in the
PMDG_NGX_SDK.h file.

The numeric parameter can be used to send a switch position, or a

control parameter to the PMDG 737NGX.

Example 1: Sending a value via the numeric parameter will tell the
simulation to place the switch/knob/lever/control into a specific position.
All values below 8192 are treated as a numeric position to which the item
being controlled should be placed.

You can determine the positions of various knobs by looking

PMDG_NGX_SDK.h file. Boolean parameters have no position
information listed, but non Boolean parameters will include position
information in the comments following the variable declaration:

bool CDU_annunOFST[2];
unsigned char CDU_BrtKnob[2];// Position 0...127

Example 2: Alternatively the parameter can be one of the following

mouse actions:

 MOUSE_FLAG_RIGHTSINGLE
 MOUSE_FLAG_MIDDLESINGLE
 MOUSE_FLAG_LEFTSINGLE
 MOUSE_FLAG_RIGHTDOUBLE
 MOUSE_FLAG_MIDDLEDOUBLE
 MOUSE_FLAG_LEFTDOUBLE
 MOUSE_FLAG_RIGHTDRAG
 MOUSE_FLAG_MIDDLEDRAG
 MOUSE_FLAG_LEFTDRAG
 MOUSE_FLAG_MOVE
 MOUSE_FLAG_DOWN_REPEAT
27FEB15 RTM DO NOT DUPLICATE For Simulator Use Only
 PMDG 737NGX 0.00.13

SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT KIT

 MOUSE_FLAG_RIGHTRELEASE
 MOUSE_FLAG_MIDDLERELEASE
 MOUSE_FLAG_LEFTRELEASE
 MOUSE_FLAG_WHEEL_FLIP
 MOUSE_FLAG_WHEEL_SKIP
 MOUSE_FLAG_WHEEL_UP
 MOUSE_FLAG_WHEEL_DOWN

Sending one of these parameters will simulate the associated mouse

action being acted upon the switch/knob/control. This technique can be
used to rotate knobs or to toggle switches, move levers, etc.

Control Methods:
There are two methods of sending control events to the PMDG 737NGX.
One involves using the PMDG 737NGX data block, and the other involves
sending P3D events to the simulation, where they are picked up and
processed by the PMDG 737NGX.

Which method you choose will depend on your application and preferred
methods. Both will yield the same results.

Method 1 uses the special control data area monitored by the PMDG
737NGX. (This area was described a few pages ago.) The data area is
initially empty. To send an event, your application writes the event ID and
parameter to this data area. The PMDG 737NGX detects non-zero data
and processes the corresponding event, after which it zeroes the control
data area in order to prepare it for future events.

Note that your application should wait until the command area is zero
before placing another command there.

METHOD 1 EXAMPLE:
The connection to the NGX control data area is set up like this:
PMDG_NGX_Control Control;
...

Control.Event = 0;
Control.Parameter = 0;

// Associate an ID with the PMDG control area name

hr = SimConnect_MapClientDataNameToID (hSimConnect, PMDG_NGX_CONTROL_NAME,
PMDG_NGX_CONTROL_ID);

// Define the control area structure - this is a required step

For Simulator Use Only DO NOT DUPLICATE 27FEB15 RTM
0.00.14 PMDG 737NGX

SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT KIT

hr = SimConnect_AddToClientDataDefinition (hSimConnect,
PMDG_NGX_CONTROL_DEFINITION,
0, sizeof(PMDG_NGX_Control), 0, 0);

// Sign up for notification of control change.

hr = SimConnect_RequestClientData(hSimConnect, PMDG_NGX_CONTROL_ID,
CONTROL_REQUEST, PMDG_NGX_CONTROL_DEFINITION,
SIMCONNECT_CLIENT_DATA_PERIOD_ON_SET,
SIMCONNECT_CLIENT_DATA_REQUEST_FLAG_CHANGED, 0, 0, 0);

Code in the dispatch procedure keeps the data synchronized to the NGX:
case CONTROL_REQUEST:
{
// keep the present state of Control area to know if the server
had received and reset the command
PMDG_NGX_Control *pS = (PMDG_NGX_Control*)&pObjData->dwData;
Control = *pS;
break;
}

This sample code sets the TAXI lights switch:

// Send another command only if there is no active command request
// and previous command has been processed by the NGX
if (Control.Event == 0)
{
Control.Event = EVT_OH_LIGHTS_TAXI; // = 69749
if (New_TaxiLightSwitch)
Control.Parameter = 1;
else
Control.Parameter = 0;
SimConnect_SetClientData (hSimConnect, PMDG_NGX_CONTROL_ID,
PMDG_NGX_CONTROL_DEFINITION,
0, 0, sizeof(PMDG_NGX_Control), &Control);
}

In this case, the transmitted event is EVT_OH_LIGHTS_TAXI. The

available events are listed in the PMDG_NGX_SDK.h file. The control
parameter in this case is either 0 or 1 and determines the position the
switch should be placed into.

Note how the code checks that the NGX has no pending events to
process by checking that Control.Event == 0.

 PMDG 737NGX 0.00.15

SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT KIT

Method 2 is to directly generate the corresponding P3D event, which will

be processed by the PMDG 737NGX. The advantage to using this
method is that it allows sending one or several events at once without
waiting for previous events to be received and processed.

The catch, however, is that it involves defining IDs and using

SimConnect_MapClientEventToSimEvent functions for each unique
control before you can trigger corresponding events.

METHOD 2 EXAMPLE:
This is how the direct event triggering is set up:
static enum EVENT_ID {
EVENT_LOGO_LIGHT_SWITCH,
EVENT_FLIGHT_DIRECTOR_SWITCH,
EVENT_HEADING_SELECTOR,
};

...

//EVT_OH_LIGHTS_LOGO
hr = SimConnect_MapClientEventToSimEvent(hSimConnect,
EVENT_LOGO_LIGHT_SWITCH, "#69754");

//EVT_MCP_FD_SWITCH_L
hr = SimConnect_MapClientEventToSimEvent(hSimConnect,
EVENT_FLIGHT_DIRECTOR_SWITCH, "#70010");

//EVT_MCP_HEADING_SELECTOR
hr = SimConnect_MapClientEventToSimEvent(hSimConnect,
EVENT_HEADING_SELECTOR, "#70022");

The "#69754" is the numerical value for EVT_OH_LIGHTS_LOGO, which is

defined as
#define EVT_OH_LIGHTS_LOGO (THIRD_PARTY_EVENT_ID_MIN + 122)

and THIRD_PARTY_EVENT_ID_MIN is equal to 69632.

After this, the logo lights can be switched by triggering the P3D event:

For Simulator Use Only DO NOT DUPLICATE 27FEB15 RTM

0.00.16 PMDG 737NGX

SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT KIT

int parameter = 1; // new switch position

SimConnect_TransmitClientEvent(hSimConnect, 0, EVENT_LOGO_LIGHT_SWITCH,
parameter,
SIMCONNECT_GROUP_PRIORITY_HIGHEST,
SIMCONNECT_EVENT_FLAG_GROUPID_IS_PRIORITY);

Such a call moves the switch to a specified position.

It is also possible to send events that simulate mouse operations. This

can be useful to control rotary knobs or to trigger a two position switch
without checking its previous position. To do this, set the event parameter
to one of MOUSE_FLAG_LEFTSINGLE,
MOUSE_FLAG_LEFTRELEASE, etc. (These constants are defined in
the PMDG_NGX_SDK.h file.)

The following examples send mouse operation events:

// use mouse simulation to toggle the switch
SimConnect_TransmitClientEvent(hSimConnect, 0,
EVENT_FLIGHT_DIRECTOR_SWITCH, MOUSE_FLAG_LEFTSINGLE,
SIMCONNECT_GROUP_PRIORITY_HIGHEST,
SIMCONNECT_EVENT_FLAG_GROUPID_IS_PRIORITY);

SimConnect_TransmitClientEvent(hSimConnect, 0,
EVENT_FLIGHT_DIRECTOR_SWITCH, MOUSE_FLAG_LEFTRELEASE,
SIMCONNECT_GROUP_PRIORITY_HIGHEST,
SIMCONNECT_EVENT_FLAG_GROUPID_IS_PRIORITY);

// use mouse simulation to slew a knob

SimConnect_TransmitClientEvent(hSimConnect, 0, EVENT_HEADING_SELECTOR,
MOUSE_FLAG_WHEEL_UP,
SIMCONNECT_GROUP_PRIORITY_HIGHEST,
SIMCONNECT_EVENT_FLAG_GROUPID_IS_PRIORITY);

CONCLUSION
Using the information and tools provided by this SDK, a skilled developer
should be able to control just about any switch, knob, lever or control.

In addition, the state of hundreds of other parameters including

annunciators and handles can be determined using the same methods
described above.

We have made available many more parameters than most developers

will likely require, but if your company or organization would like to
request that we make others available, please open a support ticket and
let us know! We cannot promise we will comply, but we will keep your
request on hand for future updates, and we’ll see what we can do!
