TrackIR 5, Falcon BMS Issues

Post by bkrull »

Hello, I use TrackIR 5 Track Clip Proin DCS World with no problems but I do have issues with Falcon BMS 4.32. It jumps around quite a bit, freezes and has sometimes a very limited range of motion. Oddly enough, the profile appears to often change in the middle of a session. Can someone please help?
Thanks

Hello Bill,

Does Falcon BMS react that way no matter what profile you use? Does it jump around even if the TrackIR is paused?

It does work like that regardless of profile used but it remains stationary when paused.
Thanks,

Yes, it does. However, it's stationary when it's paused.

Hi Mike and thanks for your reply. I'm not sure what settings you're referring to. Also, I haven't figured out to display the graph.
Thanks,
Bill

I have exactly the same problem in BMS 4.33, random freezing in game, both lights are green on TrackIr 5, if I alt tab out of BMS and go to the TrackIr software its all working.... Very baffled and frustrated. I tried setting a pause/unpause hot key and after it has frozen in game if I press the hot key (Scroll lock) then both lights on the TrackIr unit go red, if I press scroll lock again they go green...

I am using a set of Warthog H.O.T.A.S joysticks, there doesn't seem to be a corresponding action using the sticks that cause the freeze.

here are my system specs:

Operating System
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1
CPU
Intel Core i7 3770K @ 3.50GHz 63 °C
Ivy Bridge 22nm Technology
RAM
8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 686MHz (9-9-9-27)
Motherboard
ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. P8Z77-V LX (LGA1155) 23 °C
Graphics
UMC SHARP (1920x1080@59Hz)
1024MB ATI AMD Radeon HD 5700 Series (Sapphire/PCPartner) 36 °C
Storage
1863GB Seagate ST2000DM001-1CH164 ATA Device (SATA) 24 °C
119GB OCZ-OCTANE S2 ATA Device (SSD)
1863GB Western Digital WDC WD20EARX-00PASB0 ATA Device (SATA) 24 °C
Optical Drives
ATAPI iHAS124 E ATA Device
Audio
Realtek High Definition Audio

Any help would be apprecaited as the freeze causes me to be unable to complete online missions as I cannot look at my flyinf MFD's to use weapons, navigation etc.

Regards

Andy
