Fix list after SP1

A couple more that need fixing:

 

-DH can be set to below 0'.  The DH should just disappear (turn off, no minimums call out) when set to 0'.

 

How do you set the DH below zero?  Mine stops at zero and the DH indicator on the EADI goes off.

Does not on mine, unfortunately. Just keep turning the knob and altitude keeps going negative.

When you turn the DH knob?

 

Weird....

Yes.

 

(Not at my sim computer at the moment but I believe Carenado's increments in 10' also. Real aircraft you can dial in 1' increments. You actually set it to 9' for part of the radar altimeter AMM test. In FS, doesn't matter to me so I don't have to spend all day scrolling my mouse wheel.)

Mine goes negative too...10 foot increments.

A really wild guess.. I am running FSX Acceleration.. are you by chance running FSX SP2?

Bert

SP2

I have a sneaking suspicion that Decision Height is not handled the same way in SP2 vs Acceleration.

 

Very awkward..

 

One could program around it... or just leave the DH set to a value greater than zero  ^_^

Meh...there are other things it needs more...

  • Fix the compass tape to stay on the horizon
  • DME source 1 or 2 button
  • Creeping with the parking brake on
  • Click spots on the RXP530.

And fitting a GTN750 would be great!

 

I'm working on a LINDA module and two things I need for the overhead: 

  • An Inertial Separator button L variable
  • A fix to the Deice Boots main button (doesn't come on but the 1min/3min button does)

Just to continue the DH discussion.. the alarm goes off, once, and then stays off for the duration..

 

To reset the warning when landing, here is some code that will do that:

 

<!-- Reset DH warning -->

(A:RADIO HEIGHT,feet) 6 < (L:ASD_SWITCH_TERRAIN_INHIBIT,number) 1 == and if{ 0 (>L:ASD_SWITCH_TERRAIN_INHIBIT,number) }

Great, thanks! I also have acceleration not stand alone sp2.

 

About that code for the altout file

 

BUFFER_PC12_Altout

 

Can you code it so that sound file plays if you deviate from your programmed altitude? In the real aircraft I think thats what its supposed to do.

Which xml file should that line go in?  Thanks for coding that.

SP2 here as well.

 

OK - that is 2 out of 2.

 

:rolleyes:

I put it in the Gauge_Update file.

<!-- Sound system -->
<!-- OK -->
(A:ELECTRICAL MASTER BATTERY,bool) (A:CIRCUIT GENERAL PANEL ON, bool) and
(A:RADIO HEIGHT,feet) (A:DECISION HEIGHT,FEET) - abs 10 <  and
(A:FLAPS HANDLE PERCENT,PERCENT) 10 > and
(A:GEAR CENTER POSITION,percent) 50 > and 
(A:VERTICAL SPEED,ft/min) 0 < and
(A:SIM ON GROUND,bool) ! and
(L:ASD_SWITCH_TERRAIN_INHIBIT,number) 0 == and
if{	1  (>L:BUFFER_PC12_Dh,number)  1 (>L:ASD_SWITCH_TERRAIN_INHIBIT,number) }

<!-- Reset DH warning -->

(A:RADIO HEIGHT,feet) 6 <  (L:ASD_SWITCH_TERRAIN_INHIBIT,number) 1 == and if{ 0 (>L:ASD_SWITCH_TERRAIN_INHIBIT,number) }

Can you code it so that sound file plays if you deviate from your programmed altitude? In the real aircraft I think thats what its supposed to do.

 

I'm sure that could be programmed - but right now, I'm  pretty busy fixing bugs, not adding new functions
