Trying to add a New Function to Knobster for PMDG 737

[solo86]

Hi
I am trying to add a new function to the Knobster for the PMDG 737.
I followed the guide on the WiKi and created a new json file in the folder C:\Program Files\KnobFS\modes
Here is the file I created:

{
"name": "PMDG COM1 frequency",
"PMDG_B737-7_COM1_RADIO_WHOLE_INC": "72607 (>K:ROTOR_BRAKE)",
"PMDG_B737-7_COM1_RADIO_WHOLE_DEC": "72608 (>K:ROTOR_BRAKE)",
"PMDG_B737-7_COM1_RADIO_FRACT_INC": "72707 (>K:ROTOR_BRAKE)",
"PMDG_B737-7_COM1_RADIO_FRACT_DEC": "72708 (>K:ROTOR_BRAKE)",
"PMDG_B737-7_COM1_RADIO_SWAP_SWITCH" : "72101 (>K:ROTOR_BRAKE)",
"order": 301111
}

The name doesn't even show up in the 'Settings' list on the knobster in MSFS2020.

I also used the information supplied on 2020 fs'ers YouTube Video entitled
"Msfs2020*Knobster & Knobfs optimized for VR*Adj radios, A/P & More-Full guide-Create new functions!"

Here is the info on PMDG 737 settings on the Mobiflight Hubhop project website

Can anyone point me in the right direction on this coz I don't know what I'm doing wrong?

Regards

Peter

Did you see our wiki?

As you can see, your XML is far from correct

Ralph has now informed me that Sim Innovations have released a new Beta version of KnobFS that works with the PMDG 737.
I have tested it and it certainly works for nearly all of the common functions.
The new Beta version of KnobFS can be found here

Thanks, is there a change log somewhere?

[Ralph]

The only change for now is that it can cope with a | in the aircraft name.

When will you have a fix to this one (open since Nov.22) ?

Should be working in the beta, in theory...
