Plan-G / Re: Plan-G to FSX Connection Issue

I believe FSUIPC writes a log file (in the FSX\Modules folder). It might be worth attaching that here in case it throws some light on the problem. Also worth attaching the Plan-G log (in Plan-G Files)

The problem has not reoccurred for a while. If it does I will attach the log files here.
Thx,

Plan-G / Re: Plan-G to FSX Connection Issue

Do you have anything else that's using FSUIPC - a complex aircraft, controls, remote instruments, stuff like that?

How much RAM do you have? Is anything else running?

Thanks for the response.
I use the Saitek yoke, throttle quadrant and rudder pedals, and mainly have been flying the FSX default Lear45. I do send all controls through FSUIPC, but have a friend who does that same and is not experiencing this issue.
The computer has 16GB of RAM.

I flew today for about 3 hours, and this delay issue with Plan-G happened about 4 or 5 times.  To perhaps clarify a bit, this issue shows up when I make some type of request of Plan-G by clicking on something with the mouse. If does not seem to happen otherwise "on its own".  Also, I do not notice any issues with FSX itself, it seems to be running fine.

Plan-G / Plan-G to FSX Connection Issue
February 27, 2016, 10:32:15 PM
I am using FSX Delux with SP2 and the latest versions of Plan-G and FSUIPC on a Win7/64 machine . I connect Plan-G to FSX using FSUIPC and IPv4. FSX and Plan-G are running on the same computer, although Plan-G uses a separate monitor.

The problem is that frequently it will take Plan-G 10 to 20 seconds to connect to FSX, or to update if the plane is moved to a new location. When this happens the Plan-G screen will turn "foggy" (light white ). I've had the same problem using SimConnect and IPv4 to connect Plan-G to FSX.

Would appreciate hearing any suggestions about what might be causing this.

Thx,
Al
