August 23, 201114 yr Looking at page 43 in the Introduction and Use documentation it says that you should be able to press the MENU button for 2 seconds until the screen comes alive and you should also be able to turn it OFF the same way but I can't get that to work. When I try pressing the MENU button nothing happens and the screen remains dark...? What I have found though is that you're able to bring the screen alive by clicking the CDU screen to bring up the 2D version of it. Is this something that changed since writing the documentation or is it a problem at my end of some kind?
August 23, 201114 yr I have no problems turning it on from the VC and 2D ...but it wont turn off and never did ... P.L. TranAMD Ryzen 5800x; 32 GB Ram; EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 FTW3; Win10 64 Bit
August 23, 201114 yr Holding menu works for me, I know it's kind of obvious are you slipping off the key perhaps? Is it docked or undocked? Try both. -- X-Plane, Mac OS, XSB

Holding down the MENU button will not turn it on. The only way to turn it on is to bring up the 2D version by using shift-3 or clicking the CDU screen itself. But it's ok, I can deal with it...as long as it works!

August 23, 201114 yr does turning the cdu off while holding menu for 2sek work for you as well ? P.L. TranAMD Ryzen 5800x; 32 GB Ram; EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 FTW3; Win10 64 Bit
August 23, 201114 yr I can get it to turn on with the menu button, but never was able to get it to turn off. Scott Kalin VATSIM #1125397 - KPSP Palm Springs International AirportSpace Shuttle (SSMS2007) http://www.space-shu....com/index.htmlOrbiter 2010P1 http://orbit.medphys.ucl.ac.uk/
August 23, 201114 yr Turns on without issue here, but +1 on it not turning off via the menu key. A minor non-issue IMHO. Scott Burns
August 23, 201114 yr Weird, when I load the cold & dark panel state, the CDU's are powered on in the menu page. I just assumed that it was supposed to be like that. Will need to check if the menu key turns them off. i7 2600k @ 5.1Ghz, ASUS Sabertooth P67, 8GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600Mhz, EVGA GTX 580 @ 950MHz, OCZ Vertex II 240GB, ASUS Xonar DG, Thermaltake Toughpower XT 875W PSU, Antec KÜHLER 620 W/C, Corsair 600T SE White My FS9 Screens - http://fs9screens.blogspot.com/ Callum Richardson

August 23, 201114 yr Author Seems to be a number of possible variations how this menu button work and what state the CDU is in when starting up in cold & dark. Not a big issue though and appearently it's not just here, first thought I maybe screwed up my panel states somehow.
