HI JL, great work and excellent support. One question: Does the Bat 1 and Bat 2 display decrease when no apu is started? My displays show always 28.0 volts, even when no apu and no engines are running. Best regard Stefan

Hi JL;


FSUIPC version 9 . Do you foresee any problems with the new release will it be compatible?

I can confirm the voltage issue Stefan mentioned. With the new version the battery does not discharge anymore.
In addition the Galley Switch and the Ditching Switch on OVHD does not work with SIOC, but only via FSUIPC offsets.

Hello JL,

flight mode/FD bug: I just noticed a little bug when in manual decent following the FD... my decent was too steep --> overspeed warning and FD turned off. When you want to reengage the FD you will have no FD bars on PFD. You need to reselect managed NAV and managed ALT to see the FD bars again.

Plus sometimes there are still some occilations in pitch and yaw when in manual flight. Not big but visible.

Best regards,
Rob

Hi Jeehell!
Thank you for this great software!
The error of Christian I can confirm
I have also the problem that the batteries are not discharged when the APU does not start and no power Ext.
Also do not work: Ditching, galley, crew supply switch.
Best regards

Hi JL!
Regarding to my post before (#513) and the post from Karl, I tested all buttons and LEDs of my OVHD connected via SIOC.
For testing I enabled logging on the HardwareConnect Module.
Following Switches are not working:
- The Galley Switch shows: SIOCmodule:SW=4 DIR=2 (I guess it should be DIR=1 like all others)
- The Ditching switch is working, LED status goes ON but never back to OFF when pushing again
- The CrewSupply Switch shows: SIOCmodule:SW=463 DIR=3 (I guess it should be DIR=1 like all others)
- when pushing on OVHD Software the LED status shows: SIOCmodule:LED=148 State 1 (but the var CREWSUPPLYLed is not changed)
One tricky problem still exists when switching on the batteries (or off and then back on):
- Before switching on BAT1 or BAT2 all LEDs are dark, thats correct
- When pressing BAT1 or BAT2 your SIOC Client should send an status update of all LEDs and displays to the SIOC server. That does not happen most of the time, I checked it on the logging screen of the HardwareConnectModule.
Only when I do a reload of SIOC server, which causes an "Initialization Request" to all clients, the LEDs and the displays will be updated.
I hope this description is detailed enough.
If you need more support in testing or providing loggings please let me know.

thx
Christian

Hello JL,

I made a test flight with your great software, and have found little bugs. Look my video, and you see what I mean.After Takeoff LVL is not displayed. The Aircraft climbs very strong if I change the FL. Gen2 shows wrong. Engine two displayed incorrect, and the Aircraft is not stably on the ILS.

Hi all


Sorry it seems my interent provider has issues with Mycockpit website. I have to use a proxy to get here and only noticed that tonight, thats why you didn't hear from me the past days.

@Beret: your computer seems to be very old, and might not support my software. Try to update to the latest video drivers available. if that does not fix your issue, there is nt much I can do...

@Miatanet:yes the batteries readings should decrease over time if no power source is connected to the acft.I'll look at it


@Startrail:there should be no issue with latest FSUIPC release.

@Christian/Karl: I'll look at those switches.

@Rob: AP/FBW is still current work in progress.

@Micha: ok will look at those bugs


Hope I did not forget anyone....

Hi JL,

First, thanks for the great tool. I followed up the FMGS since version 12, but now it's the first time takeing part in a forum at all.

I have build an HW engine start panel and drive your overhead panel via fsuipc offsets. It works very well. Now I have additionally build the automatic RTO brake panel. Unfortunetelly the FMGS does not read or write the offset 78ED 29-32 given in your manual. I tried to change the status via fsinterrogate and viceversa in your overhead panel, but noting happens. Is that a known bug, not jet programmed or a compatibility problem on my side? (System next post)

Maybe you can test the offsets on your system.

Thanks and Regards
Rémy
