Knobster "dead"

#1 Post by Copdoc »

Knobster is connected per AirManager. Air Plugin installed per instructions. 127.0.0.1 shows as comunicating with device. PlugIn Admin on XP12 Ventura shows Air Plugin in list. Clicking on Air Plugin produces and info panel for 4.1 beta 1. From log.txt I get this: "Loaded: /Users/hanthonysemone/X-Plane 12/Resources/plugins/Air Plugin/64/mac.xpl (com.siminnovations.AirPlugin)."

Air Plugin shows the following:

09-08-2023 11:11:47.440 INFO Main: Starting plugin (4.1.0 )...

09-08-2023 11:52:33.271 INFO Main: Done cleaning up, exiting now.

What does the following mean and what should I do to rectify it:

09-08-2023 11:11:48.491 INFO Main: Enabling plugin
09-08-2023 11:11:48.491 INFO SimVideoStreamServer: listening on 6100

09-08-2023 11:52:33.271 INFO Main: Done cleaning up, exiting now.

I appreciate any of ya'll who might help me out. Tony

This is a connection issue, I'm not sure what this has to do with the Knobster itself?
But regarding the plugin, are you using the latest version?

Hi Ralph, thanks for your reply. I'm using the ARM version of the 64bit Mac version. I'm on a Silicon MacOS. I agree it's a connection issue. Before my other computer now which I had Knobster installed, it worked as advertised. Of the many connection options on XPlane, I'm unsure of which to use. I'm also unsure of which port and IP to use. I try out the various options to see what works (or not). Thanks for your help. Tony
