Seat Belt Signs

Featured Replies

Hi all!Just been looking through the PMDG sound folder located in Sound/PMDG/737TNG and came across this sound file, PMDG_hilowchime. All the chimes for cabin, no smoke,seatbelts and mechanic are just a single bong. How can i get this to work for the seat belt signs instead of just the one bong?

If I'm not wrong, the hilowchime is actually a cabin signal, used often to tell cabin crew that takeoff or landing is happening soon and crew should get seated and fasten their belts. Anyone know where this switch should be?

"How can i get this to work for the seat belt signs instead of just the one bong?"Perhaps it's an option, Richard, but normally the seat belt and no-smoking chimes are single low chimes. Pushing the Attendant Call button on the overhead panel normally generates HI-LO chimes however.Sorry, I can't help you with the "How can I" part... Sounds like a job for PMDG ;-) Cheers.Ian.

I'd like to bump this one up. PMDG guys, can we get the hi-low added to the attendant call button if that's how it is in real life?-Andrew

Thanks for bumping it up Andrew!Any suggestions anyone? Any thing that continues to improve this beauty seems a good idea to me!Richard Wheatley

Perhaps we could get someone to confirm just how many times the HI-LO chime sounds. (A captain demonstrated this for me a few weeks ago, but I can't recall if it was the 3 HI-LO chimes you sometimes hear on other aircraft prior to turning onto the runway for takeoff).Thanks.Cheers.Ian.P.S. I'm back at work tomorrow, but getting to work specifically on a 737NG depends somewhat on chance ;-)
