Hi all

 

Can the external GPU that comes with the Majestic Q400 be controlled with MCE?  I can control the APU with MCE but would prefer to get it to set external power rather than fire up the APU.  I've looked through the Q400 commands list but can't find it. is this something that MCE can't control or am I just looking in the wrong place?

 

Thanks.

Establish contact with ground mechanic with commands such as

 

"cockpit to ground"

"ground from flight deck"

 

Once contact established, ask mechanic for GPU

 

"mechanic we need ground power"

"ground connect ground power".

 

...should happen after that.

 

Note: MCE will be using the Q400 FMC "services" to trigger the delivery and removal of GPU.

Ahh great thank you  I was looking for it in the specific Q400 commands list
