Hi Neil
Sorry this is late, been busy building up some bits into a new PC.

The extra sounds is not easy & it took me a while to get it right.
Unfortunately it's not just a matter of copying sound files & setting up entries in an 'ini' file. You need some XML to trigger it.
This is roughly the XML gauge that you would need to make the 1-11 Alt Alert gauge beep in another model.
The 'L' variable 'DM SOUND ALERT' is linked to the entry in the 'DM_1-11_sound.ini' file, which links to the 'wav' file also in the 'ini'. :think:
Are you following?
<Gauge Name="Sounds" Version="1.0">
<Element>
<Select>
<Value>
(L:AP ALT VAR, number) (A:Indicated altitude, feet) - abs d 200 >= r 1000 <= && if{ (L:DM SOUND ALERT FIRED,number) 0 == if{ 1 (>L:DM SOUND ALERT,number) 1 (>L:DM SOUND ALERT FIRED,number) } } els{ 0 (>L:DM SOUND ALERT,number) 0 (>L:DM SOUND ALERT FIRED,number) }
</Value>
</Select>
</Element>
</Gauge>
And you then need an entry in the panel.cfg something like this:-
gaugexx=dsd_xml_sound3!dsd_xml_sound3, 2,2,5,5,.\Aircraft\DMFS Shared Files\BAC 1-11 510ED Panel VC\DM_1-11_sound.ini
(change the path to where your ini file is)
It is all done using the freeware 'dsd_xml_sound3.gau' (available from AVSIM).
It does come with instructions, but it's not exactly for beginners.
BTW All of my gauges are available for people to use, so long as it's not for a commercial project.
