The gauge file dates I have are from 10/7. I do not think I have the latest gauge files because I recall in the AVSIM panel thread that the author stated he got rid of the WX500 range rings in the ND but they show on mine.Īnother indication that I probably received earlier files is that FS crashes when I exit the flight or try to load another PMDG. Now I use the Aerosoft CD versions with the Aerosoft CD patych applied. I know the feature exist for the PMDG 777 but wanted to confirm that it also works on the iFLY v2 model. My question is, is this true and if so is it a seamless integration process for it to work.
Changing barometer had no effect on the full panel nor EFIS range on the ND nor active flight plans displaying unless I popped up the zoom panel (Shift-2) which always kept up. One of the features on the iFLY 747 v2 is the weather radar which they say requires ASN. Turning WXR off did not remove the radar display. However once I turned radar on, went to the main zoom panel, and back to the full panel, I lost gauge freshening for the PFD and ND for any function. Whether using the VC or 2D here is what happened: I installed the files that were e-mailed to me in the 700 and 800. Good luck and BAD weather along the way!!! (or how you can test your radar? ) In addition, the WX RADAR gauge on the Radio panel is now working, try to play around with it. Hey, you need to this step in real life as well, don't you? Many users forget this step and think the integration is not working. In order to make your weather radar work, you HAVE TO click the WXR bottom on your MCP panel, to turn on/off ur RXP Radar. you don't need to (and actually you can't, obviously) edit the VC sections. GaugeXX=RealityXP_WX500!RDR,0,512,452,346 // replace XX with your next available number, mine is 31 GaugeXX=NDWX!WXPanel,212,96,200,90 // replace XX with your next available number, mine is 01 2000 here (instead of 0 which you can find in the origional file) is a quick fix to a graphical error GaugeXX=RealityXP_WX500!RDR,2000,512,452,346 // replace XX with your next available number, mine is 26. GaugeXX=NDWX!Xposer,0,0 // replace XX with your next available number, mine is 08 from your PMDG store account, or Aerosoft. Additionally, we have modeled all of the trouble-shooting checklists associated with hard-to-nail-down failures in the airplane that may not be immediately obvious to the crew, but that may impact your ability to complete a long-haul flight.For 737-6/700 with VC panel, go to FS9\Aircraft\PMDG737-700\panel.VC\Panel.cfgįor 737-8\900 with VC panel, go to FS9\Aircraft\PMDG737-800\panel.VC\Panel.cfg Below are some tips for troubleshooting the operation of the weather radar for the 777, NGX and 747-400 QOTSII products. New with the 747-8 are interactive checklists that will prompt you forĭeferred items to be accomplished later in a flight if necessary when Follow those steps and you will have the airplane reconfigured to complete the mission in no time at all.
Provide you with detailed step-by-step guidance through how to handleĪny message that appears as a result of mechanical failure, from a failed fuel pump to a complete catastrophic engine failure, the ECL is your friend.
The ECL will walk you very easily through all phases of flight and will The advanced Electronic Check List (ECL) system is included and fullyįunctional for all normal and abnormal modes. In reality, the ECL is controlled by the cursor control wheel at the top corner of the throttles. By default, the ECL allows you to click on the items as if the screen were a touch screen.
For those familiar with our 777 aircraft, you will be right at home with the ECL on the 747-8 although there are minor differences in the interface.
