August 7, 201114 yr Captains, PMDG Team,wouldnt it be great, to have the CDU as a iPad up with touch functionality?Is there annything planned by the PMDG development?What do you thing about such an product?Greets Frank Wayne Interessierts
August 7, 201114 yr Purchase AirDisplay from the app store and use the iPad as extended monitor ... Works like a charm but only in windowed mode :(( Gary Blake.
August 7, 201114 yr Its been done. Do search and you will find a few examples of folks using the iPad PC peer to peer Apps. Undock the CDU and you should be off and running. I saw a YouTube video of someone doing it with the 744 or MD11. George Morris
August 7, 201114 yr Author Yes, but a App would be much better, since the iPad would have to send only the data via wifi. Wayne Interessierts
August 7, 201114 yr Yes, but a App would be much better, since the iPad would have to send only the data via wifi. AirDisplay works perfectly fine. I don't see the problem with other methods - I highly doubt PMDG will make an entire app just for the CDU when it's already done.
August 7, 201114 yr Quick note about AirDisplay. If you connect to the device while in windowed mode and your screen goes black, press Alt-Enter to make it go fullscreen, then press it again to return to windowed. Also, I won't let me start flight sim with it's connected (it detects airdisplay as invalid video hardware) so just start FSX then connect. Michael Freudeman
August 7, 201114 yr Author Ok. Thx! I will try it now, and will post my results.... Wayne Interessierts
August 7, 201114 yr It still works with the ngx. Flew twice today with the fmc on my iPad. Use air display...it works like a charm! Eric [FSX on Windows7 64-bit]
August 7, 201114 yr I'm using Air Display too. But since it can not be done in fullscreen mode, I am not using it anymore. Is there any possibility to undock the FMC in fullscreen mode? Regards, Martin Janssen
August 7, 201114 yr Author Oh Guy, i know this is not an airdisplay support forum, but, i installed it and it doenst work at all.On my PC it shows the iPad, but when i connect nothing happens to the iPad.... Maybe it is not working with windows 7 64 bit ? Wayne Interessierts
August 8, 201114 yr Author Since the Air Display is not working anymore, is there another possible solution? Wayne Interessierts
August 8, 201114 yr Oh Guy, i know this is not an airdisplay support forum, but, i installed it and it doenst work at all.On my PC it shows the iPad, but when i connect nothing happens to the iPad.... Maybe it is not working with windows 7 64 bit ?It works flawlessly on WIN7 x64 (since that's what I run). Please read the information on your iPad when you start Airdisplay...it should present itself as a 2nd monitor. Also start FSX first and then start Airdisplay. Drag your FMC (undocked) to your Ipad. As to "....this is no airdisplay support forum..." you are correct :) Eric [FSX on Windows7 64-bit]
August 8, 201114 yr Author I did exacly everything the app is telling me to do, but nothing happens.. Perhaps because the Computer ist connect with kabel to the network the iPad connects wireless to? Wayne Interessierts
