Using TCAS when flying online with Squawkbox

[Guest wtheurer]

I have not been able to figure out how to use TCAS when flying online. I am wondering if I dont have something set right? I keep seeing "TCAS Off" while flying. I have downloaded the manual, but I can't figure out how to make it work. Any suggestions?Happy flying...

I did a thread search, and found some talking about a tutorial written by George Morris. I then searched AVSIM's file library for it, but can't find one. Anyone know where I can get the TCAS Tutorial by George Morris?Thanks.

PMDG Site, downloads page, documentation.Edit: You know what, I can't find it now neither, I remember I downloaded it from the Documentation downloads or the Miscellaneous downloads, now its not there.Carlos.

In any case, the summation of the tutorial is as follows:Make sure PMDG sytles menu has FS2004 internal option enabled.Connect to VATSIM via SB and SB RelayOn the radio panel, move the Transponder setting to TA/RAOn the MCP, press the button that says TFC (should be located in the center of a rotary switch)You should see traffic now.

Thanks so much guys. So it looks like I don't need AI Bridge with this then, or do I? I have the pay version of FSUIPC--that all I need?Happy flying!!!

Negative, AI Bridge is not needed, nor is the pay version of FSUIPC.

No problem Wayne, thanks for following the Forum's rule.As Fred mentioned no need for AIBRIDGE or "Purchased Version" of FSUIPC (still need minimally need freeware version). Although make sure you are using FS Internal mode.
