A320 FMGS beta 26

[Arbizzano]

Hi JL,thank you for new modules.
Last night I installed the new sioc.modules and now everything is ok with the V / S. It remains to solve the problem on the voltmeter of battery, but you have already responded. I noticed that the button Galley on the overhead only works in off-mode. To explain: if you click on will not turn off the light off, and if it is turned off the light comes on.
For the thrust levers is a strange thing happened: just set one of them works in reverse. Then I closed and restarted FMGS B19.2 and everything is back to work ...
Now everything is ok!
Thank you for your great support!

Hi,

Ok I will look at the galley button for next version. As for the LVRs, just to be sure, the FMGS needs to be closed when you setup FMGS config, it is no updated in real time.

Hi JH,
the buttons and switches I have now assigned all, but there is a new problem. The keys Apu Bleed , Apu start and ground spoilers Armed after pressing the button will not start. Using the mouse, it works.

Hi Jeehell

I have been making some tests with the software and send you some bug to your report forum topic.

Regarding the levers the same problems remains but I have tried closing the AP/FBW module and set up each lever via FSUIPC in the axis page for each engine and it worked, the plane is fully flyable , engines responds to levers movement. I agree that this is not a correct thing , but I was wondering that this could be a clue because it seems clear that the AP/FBW module might be the key to solve the levers issue.

Best regards

Hi jeehell.

I have been making some testing and here are some initial bugs, expect a second post since some A320 pilots are coming home to help me with more testing



BATERY.
When the airplane is energized with the APU the OFF text is not appearing in the battery korrie.

APU.
As far as I was aware of the APU has its own fuel pump, so it should be starting up without the need of powering up a fuel pump in the fuel panel.

HYDRAULICS.
I started up the plane and pressed F8 and the flaps extended without any hydraulic pressure, first that should be happening and a memo should appear in the ECAM.

DRY CRANK
1) In the engine panel I selected CRANK,
2) Manual start switch ON
3) The start valve remains closed in the engine page in the SD.

ENGINE MASTER SWITCH.
The ENGINE MASTER switch in OFF is not turning the engine OFF.
The engine LP valves can be closed by engine master or engine fire button.

ENGINE BLEED PRESURE.
Both engines running, each engine bleed values is not the real value. Engine at full trust should be around 200 psi and it is only showing 34 PSI at the SD.

FUEL SYSTEM.
The amber marks in the fuel pumps at SD shows that the logic is not correct. No explanation why central tanks valves are closing automatically when selecting another fuel pump.


hope this helps.

Hi

I will look at the swithces bugs.
Concerning the levers, it's hard to tell. Not using the AP/FBW is not a good idea. On several setups it works perfectly. Please make sure you calibratzd the lvrs correctly in FMGs config, it should work. Also, what FSUiPC version and what aircraft are you using?

Hi Jeehell.

Fsuipc is 4.6 , FSX Sp2, and the airplane is IFDG A320 the plane provided with your package.

Hi Adonis,

I really don't know what to say, if it worked in earlier versions it should still work now...

Did you try to re-install the FMGS from scratch?
Also did you try to reinstall FSUIPC and/or FSX?

Hi Jeehell,

thanks for the fast reply,

yes I did reinstall everything from scratch , FSX, FSUIPC, and FMGS.

no worries at the time, Im still trying some configurations and investigation a bit more. I will update if I find something else

Hello Jeehell,

I still have a little problem. I can not hear the call out `s. Do I need to change something in the sound cfg.
Thanks again for your great cockpit software.
