PA-34 200T Seneca II for FSX: Master Avionics switch

Featured Replies

Hi folks,In my other Carenado aircraft, the Master Avionics switch turns off all avionics including radios and the radio stack. I have noticed, however, that, for my FSX PA-34 200T Seneca II, the Master Avionics switch seems to turn off everything *except* the radios.Has anyone else also noticed this, or is this something unique to my installation (perhaps a corrupted install) such that I might wish to reinstall? I can get into the specfics of my system and all that, but for now, just wondering if this is normal behavior for the Master Avionics switch for the FSX Seneca. If it is, then I won't reinstall, and my system specs. are not really relevant.Thanks a bunch.

I have also noticed this. When you shut the Master Avionics Switch off it turns off the GPS,ADF and I think the ADF. But Leaves the KX-170B and KX-155 running. Very strange indeed.

Hi,In my personal case, I changed out the default radios, etc.with Reality XP and other avionics. When I shut down after a flight, I manually turn off the GPS, Transponder, ADF and all radios first, then shut down the Avionics master switch. Granted, I'm not a real-world pilot, but I'd imagine that real-world pilots would not shut all Avionics off via the Avionics master switch, but turn their radios/GPS units off before doing so.Just a thought, hope it helps!Cheers,Mike T.
