A320 Captain Side EFIS Testing - Orange LEDs This Time

[Buddym]

Here's a couple of pics of testing captain's EFIS with orange LEDs.. I think once I get a piece of felt behind the panel to act a a light block so there is no light leakage around the switch cutouts it will be great. I hope to have the glare functional within a week. SIOC here I come!

looking very good Buddym
with what interface will you work it with and what airbus addon are you using?
if you can send more picturesand some of the mipkind regards

[Buddym]

I will be using IOcards to interface the glare panels. So far I have not settled on a plane, I may just use the stock FSX 321 with Jeehell's software and/or vasfmc.

nice work BuddyM,
thanx for the photo's.

I start with the OC switches with led too,
when you find a way to backlit the caps, please let me know

Hi flatland..
Actually I decided to engrave the button function legends onto the panel itself and I am not going to i,,uminate the caps, at least not for now. I love the way it looks with the panel lit up instead of the the button cap.
