I use A320 FMGS B50.2 with Intercom.exe and Skalarki ACPs:
In my system there is one persistent bug:
As soon as I engage the PTT of the stick (with VHF1 "CALL" on my ACP active for transmitting to online ATC), the Intercom connection to the other crew member comes open as long as the PTT is engaged even when the Intercom is switched "off" with the INT/RAD switch on ACP or is muted by the INT poti of the other ACP. This is very annoying and disturbing for the other crew member, as it leads to an echo effect, when he is also listening to VHF1 (what he should do!). This malfunction comes in both directions, as soon as CPT engages his PTT, the FO has to listen to CPT´s microphone via Intercom in addition to the VHF1. As soon as FO engages his PTT, the CPT has to listen to FO´s microphone via Intercom in addition to the VHF1. The buttons on the ACPs are configured properly in Skalarki Proflier´s profile. Seems the INT/RAD switch is intentionally configured to switch the Intercom connection on/off. The stick-PTTs are configured properly in FMGS_v4-Config.exe. I configured them with "Push event" for "Button Push action" and with "Release event" for "Button Release action".
In my opinion there should be a function, which
> does not open the Intercom connection to the other pilot independant from the INT configurations, when VHF1 "CALL" is active and PTT is engaged,
> in addition closes the Intercom connection to the other pilot, even when the Intercom is configured "on" and "loud/not muted", as long as the PTT button is engaged.
Do other users of the Intercom.exe recognize the same behaviour? Is there something wrong in my configuration?
THX in advance for any help!
