Hi Enrico,
Just installed the three last version of PM Boeing (gc, mcp and cdu).
I also use the MCP and EFIS coming from CPFlight.
When I engage the CMD A button,the lighting of this button becomes lighting
(it's totally normal) but the light of the CMD B button becomes lighting
too.
What does it mean ? Normally we engage the CMD B button only for the ILS
arrival for a landing Cat B or C.
Many thanks in advance for your information.
Best regards
Marco

Hi Marc,
if you press CMD B, does CMD A go off or stay on? In the MCP
software, is it set to 737? (press Esc for the Menu).
Ciao
Enrico

Ok, my theory: you have the 777 selected.
