Hello Guys,

 

I've tried working the PMDG's TCAS for about 2 months now and I can't get to have t working. I've used Aerosoft Airbus X Extended's TCAS and it's a brilliant piece of equipment. On the other hand, on the PMDG. I've the transponder at the TA/RA, TA Only, etc... and none of them work. I get the TCAS ring on the ND but no aircrafts to display and the PFD seems to have 2 red cues (I think they relate to resolutionary advisories). I've read the documentation and nothing helped. Went over everywhere on the internet, and no luck again.

Any ideas lads?

How TCAS displays aircraft around you is dependent on your TCAS settings in the PMDG Setup menus.  Have a look at the intro manual for the various options.

I'm afraid I've tried that too and have it to show all aircrafts

I'd try to get that issue solved first.

I thought so too. The FCOM mentions such phenomena, but not how to tackle it.

Do you test your TCAS before a flight? Does it pass/fail?

I press TEST and it doesn't do anything and no audible test as I've heard it should.

That doesn't sound right. I would submit a support ticket.
