In the new version 1.11 there seems to be a problem with selecting, or in particular, remembering the EFIS mode. The last 3 buttons on the USER panel I have assigned to EFIS mode 1, 2, 3 respectively. When I choose mode 2 or 3 it correctly switches mode and shows M211 or M311 in the display and for some seconds the buttons and knobs also use that mode. But when I don't touch the panel for a while it automatically switches back to mode 1 when I hit buttons or knobs again - even though it still says M211 on the display! So there is something wrong there...I haven't tested this with the MCP or USER panels.

HiI have the same question some time ago.Here is the answer : http://forum.avsim.n...ost__p__2164520

Ok, so this is intended and I can understand why in some cases (with some aircraft) you want that. But then at least the label in the display should be corrected accordingly.And also I would really like to have an option (preferrably per aircraft) where I could select whether or not it should automatically switch back. Wouldn't that be possible, Mr Crum?

Block mode label should be visible while it's mode is not MODE 1. M211 - or something like that is shown. And it SHOULD dissapper on revert back to MODE 1, if it doesn't then it is a bug.There is no option to change this behavior, but you can edit handlers-mcp.lua (or handlers-mcp2.lua - according to your MCP type) and remove this code from VRI_TIMER () function:

-- Return EFIS to mode 1if ipc.get("EFISmode") > 1 then  -- only if no input in that mode  if ipc.elapsedtime() - ipc.get("EFISalt") > 10000 then		    EFIS_MODE_one ()  endend-- Return MCP to mode 1if ipc.get("MCPmode") > 1 then  -- only if no input in that mode  if ipc.elapsedtime() - ipc.get("MCPalt") > 10000 then		    MCP_MODE_one ()  endend-- Return USER to mode 1if ipc.get("USERmode") > 1 then  -- only if no input in that mode  if ipc.elapsedtime() - ipc.get("USERalt") > 10000 then		    USER_MODE_one ()  endend
