Hello,
I have a third party aircraft that has no Garmin 500 GPS. I would like to install one. I think I understand the way to get the entry into the panel.cfg. I think I can get that to work.
My question concerns a Hotkey, or sequence of keys to bring up the GPS when needed. I have not been able to find anything on-line that I have been able to understand on installing one that will work for me.
Does anyone have a way to add a Hotkey to the Keyboard of my system to open the Garmin 500 once I get the Garmin installed ?
Any help is gratefully appreciated,
Wayne

Thank you so much CRJ_simpilot and iI88pp,
I sort of used both of your suggestions. FS Panel Studio for one GPS, on one aircraft, at the present time, seemed like over kill. Good suggestion, but much. I had read it could be done like iI88pp said without other software.
I copied the default 737 code from CRJ_simpilot and put it in my panel.cfg. Nothing blew up.
I was going to start looking for how to insert a hotkey to the keyboard. No need. I started FSX. and the aircraft. I clicked a Shift+ key and it gave the Shift key options. The GPS was one of them. FANTASTIC. All is right with the world now.
Mission accomplished.
I do thank both of you so much,
Wayne
