TRC have just released a new piece of software which can be downloaded from the website directly: TRC 1000 Key Send Software. (1.8Mb)
The TRC1000 Keys Send Software makes it possible to assign custom keystrokes to every function of the TRC 1000 Complete Glass Cockpit (including the audio panel) for use with 3rd party G1000 software like Mindstar G1000.
For instance, if you use the Mindstar G1000 add-on you can import the key commands from Mindstar and so update our configuration to let it work directly.
You can simultaneously connect up to three TRC1000 displays and two TRC1000 audio units. Using the TRC1000 Keyboard Commands screen in the TRC1000 Key Send Software, you can preset all push buttons and rotary knobs. This makes it very easy to assign custom keystrokes to every function.
