Hallo JL,

Thanks for the Christmas present. After a few tests, I mean the delay issues are resolved. The Chrono switch from FO does not work anymore, but that's not a big problem. Which modules should be installed on which computers? What is your recommendation for a 4 PC system? Really great work, again many thanks.

greetings from Germany Micha

Yes it should be OK. When renaming, you removed the DLL extension? if you kept the file with dll extension then it was loaded as if it was still there.
JL

I tested it. It's the same. I'll double the RAM these days and I'll try again.

Before udating any hardware, can you try one last thing:
do not run the hardwareConnect software (or clsoe it after launching starter soft). And use the software FCU/OVHD to see if there is any difference.

As you said, I closed the HardwareConnect and I used software FCU. It was excactly the same: FCU like MCDU 1-2sec lag, but OVHD is rapid...

Were the FCU and MCDU on the main PC or on a remote PC?
And same question for the OVHD?

You can also check if you lack memory from ctrl-alt-del then performance tab, it gives you an overview of used memory. If you're above 90% then it might not enough, otherwise I think the problem is somewhere else...

All are on main PC. Memory use is 30-40%

Hmm please do a last test: run only server computer without hardware, then check if there is lag. If not, run the remote computers one at a time until lag appears.
Check if lag is induced by the number of clients, or if it is specific to one of your clients PC.

This is really weird the software FCU lags on the main computer but not the OVHD??

Hi JL,

thanks for the update to 28. I have made the update with the automatic update function (updater.exe) on both PCs. I have done some tests on the ground, and it looks as if the light switches on the OVHD are not working for me:

- Logo light does not switch on logo (and cabin) light on aircraft (using Project Airbus)
- Beacon does not switch on beacon light on aircraft
- The same for strobes and landing lights. When switching on strobes, also the message "strobe lights off" on SD does not disappear

The position of the switch is changing, but there is no reaction. The rest of the OVHD seems to work (APU switch etc).

I have tested as well with old v27, and there everything is working fine. Anyone an idea?

Thanks
Stefan

I can confirm this but when I press the start button for the APU, the light illuminates but the APU does not start. I run the OVHD.exe on a client. I've heard it will work if the OVHD.exe is running on the server.
