Roland's Weather Radar in Real Air Duke V2 (piston) VC

Featured Replies

Greetings,

 

I am attempting to install Roland's excellent weather radar for use with ASN, in the RA V2 piston Duke VC using the RXP G530 x 2 panel option, with the radar in the #2 G530 unit:

 

 

gauge19=rxpGNS!GNS530, 1, 660, 504, 364

gauge20= RolasnRadar!ORadGauge, 506, 600, 480, 364 sweep|beam|icing

 

I am trying to properly position the gauge by adjusting the four sets of 3-digit numbers (x,y, etc). Can someone please explain the function of each set (i.e. height, width, zoom,)? At present, the radar image is zoomed in too much and I'd like to zoom out . Or even better, if someone has already accomplished this, the panel.cfg would be very much appreciated.

I do not know how to get it to work, hav eyou tried contacting the wx gauge author? I'd be interested if you find a solution

Roland (the author), I think reads these forums. In any case, the 2d pop-up works fine as an alternative.

Les,

 

The 4 numbers are XPos, YPos, Width, Height.

 

First you have to find the correct up/left corner with XPos, YPos.

Then to unzoom, you can decrease Width and/or Height values.

 

You only need to reload the aircraft between each panel.cfg modification to test the result.

 

Hope this help,

 

Roland

Les,

 

If you get this working, post a pic, okay?

Ok, I will, but I haven't done any more attempts for a couple of weeks.
