Hello,

after i updated my MCP Software to Version 480, when i push the MTR Button on the FO EFIS, the Flight Sim is going to freeze mode.

Did anybody have the same issue?
I'am using CP-Flight Hardware with CP-Flight MIP Board.

Second Question:
Iam using the Engravity CDU,too.
When i start the PM CDU Software there is no more yellow FMC Message light illuminating on the AFDS Panel. It only illuminates when the CDU Software is not running. Can anyboby help me there?

And third issure:
When iam in Expand mode with the GC Software . Why i can not turn the MTR on?
I it true that the Expand Mode is a little bit erroneus?

Thank you very much.

Hi there,

Yes I have experienced the exact same problem. I eliminated all environmental possibilities by mapping a joystick buttong to PM MCP KCodes via FSUIPC and passed in 145 as the integer value. It seems that magenta mcp version 480 has a bug where this KCode not only changes the FO ND display to meters but it also simultaneously pauses flight sim.

Version 482 is out and supposed to fix this problem. Not yet tested by me.
