Newbee in T7, PFD confused (TCAS?)

Featured Replies

Hi fellows simmers,

im a newbee in t7, im comming from 737NGX (4000 Vatsim hrs).

 

This is my 3 attemp to fly this bird, and i dont know what its this simbol (red lines).

Im turn in on the batt and the red clues are they displayed, im follow all the check list and........there is.

In the manual PMDG-777-FCOMv2, page 1211, swom me something similar (VSI TCAS RA Band).

Those red lines are linked to TCAS resolution advisory and are instructions to avoid other aircraft i believe.

 

Does this issue happen when not connected to VATSIM/FSInn?

Can you provide more informations? What panel state you use, when TCAS RA symbology shows up? Anything you think it's relevant?

Well, I tried to recreate from cold and dark, started only battery and apu. Red bars never showed up during nor after built in tests process. 

 

Anyway, cold and dark panel state preset was a little bit inconsistent. Different people reported different problems with preset panel states, so I would recommend you to try with any other panel state (long or even "take off ready") and observe what's going on. If red bars doesn't show up in other panel states, you can start with "take off ready" panel state, shut down and secure aircraft per checklist and save that as new C&D panel state.

 

YOu can wait for someone else to respond too, and if nothing helps maybe it's best to try reinstallation of addon.

 

EDIT: I forgot to add, live change of panel states seems doesn't work so good (at least at my PC), so I recommend to set default panel state you want, and then restart whole FSX.
