IMPORTANT NOTES AFTER FENIX V2B2 UPDATE (v2.0.0.392):
- FenixQuartz is no longer required for miniFCU support
Cheers vinKaiZen
FIRST TIME FULL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION (UPDATED SINCE FENIX 2.0.0.392):
1) Ensure your miniFCU is fully regristered as USB-SERIAL CH340 in your windows device manager, otherwise check here: https://shop.minicockpit.com/a/help/article/57597
=> if it won´t register after driver installation or windows update, you may use another or the original USB cable (power+data transport cable required!)
2) Close the miniFCU DLS (data link software), it´s not needed and causes issues if used together with Mobiflight
Never mind: Here you will find a list of created Mobiflight MiniFCU profiles for many planes so far: https://github.com/Koseng/MobiFlight-miniFCU-Profiles
3) Download & install latest MobiFlight version, (see below) https://www.mobiflight.com/en/download.html
=> Extras => Settings: TICKED! "Automatically perform retrigger-action with "run" mode
Now your sim switches will sync with your set switches in the miniFCU
=> If not already done, ensure you installed the Mobiflight WASM module => Extras => MSFS2020 => Install WASM module
=> check in your MSFS community, you have got a "mobiflight-event-module" folder, otherwhise its installed on the false location and won´t work
4) With a original or older miniFCU device, Mobiflight will now upgrade your firmware (do it) that it´s useable with Mobiflight
=> go though firmware updating messages, then in configured modules => right mouse click on "compatible" => "update firmware" => "minicockpit" => "miniCOCKPIT miniFCU"
5) Then "Upload" the boards default config (below the miniFCU picture) and click "OK"
=> Note you can restore the Firmware anytime same way: right mouse click on miniFCU (configured modules) => "Reset board" to get it usage with miniFCU DLS
CONFIG INTEGRATION:
Now all is prepared and the next steps must be done everytime you upgrade a config:
7) Download & Extract my FENIX A320 FCU.zip
8) Open the "FENIX A320 - FCU-V...mcc" config in Mobiflight (File -> Open -> select it)
9) Important or you won´t get Display values later:
=> Orphaned Serials found window opens => in the white field select my "miniCOCKPIT miniFCU/ SN-94G-809" serial that its blue marked -> "Assign"
=> then my serial will disappear and the config is adjusted to your serial => click "OK" => "Save" (otherwise you have to do it every time)
10) Since FENIX V2B2: Untick "scrolling accerlation" in the new Fenix EFB option!
11) Optional but recommended, on Mobiflight bottom right mouse click on fenix aircraft => link current config & "Auto load linked config"
12) Optional but recommended, on Mobiflight top, activate "AutoRun" (yellow pulp if activated)
Now you are ready to use and enjoy
HANDLING / USAGE NOTES & INFORMATIONS (UPDATED SINCE FENIX 2.0.0.392):
- Don´t worry about the red "!" circles if config is running in Mobiflight, these are programmed preconditions (logic) and normal
1) start msfs and stay in the main menu
2) start fenix app
3) start mobiflight & run the config (if not already)
4) start your flight & enjoy

Now your sim switches will sync with your set switches in the miniFCU"
So, this setting in MobiFlight SHOULD or SHOULD NOT be ticked? It was ticked when I installed it, but am not sure if it's supposed to be that way now... 😉
Thx in advance!

Does "restart the Fenix App" mean "start a new Flight" or can i restart it manually ? To fly from the airport i landed on ?
Thank you, Greets Felix

- FenixQuartz is still required due to missing native Fenix lvars for dashes state (spd, hdg, vs).
- FENIX added a new EFB option "scrolling acceleration" => UNTICK! it for direct, responsive & best IRL feeling
- It´s necessary to open & link the v11 profile again, since IAE and CFM are now different aircrafts as V2B1.

thank you for providing the Fenix A320 | MiniCockpit MiniFCU | MobiFlight Profile.
I managed to install you v10 profile according your instructions.
issues:
V/S and FPA values do no show - all the rest seems to work fine (same for all 3 profiles).
edit:
while starting a fresh flight, all is good, v/s or FPA numbers sync turning the knob or with mouse on screen. but as soon the v/s knob is pushed or pulled, no numbers are shown on the minicockpit - still they work properly in MSFS.
Any suggestions are wellcome.
