June 3, 201610 yr First thanks for this amazing Plane. But if i switch the Transponder to ON or ALT nothing changes in XIVAP and i'm not visible in IVAO with mode C. So I can't fly online and must bring it back to Hangar until this is fixed. Torsten Buettner
June 3, 201610 yr Commercial Member So I can't fly online and must bring it back to Hangar until this is fixed. I'm not sure that this is something we need to do on our end. This function works in XSquawkbox, as an example. Kyle Rodgers
June 3, 201610 yr Hello Tornsten: If XIVAP works the same as IvAp for FSX, you can set the transponder from the IvAp box itself. I have always had to set the transponder to Mode "C" via IvAp with PMDG aircraft. As Kyle mentions above, for some reason the transponder works on the VATSIM network.

June 3, 201610 yr Author Sir in XIVAP what not is XSquawkbox i can also not Change the Transpondermode and the Dataref for Transpondermode set back al time to Zero. Flightfactor has made a Mode called custom Radio to get it to work. All other Aircraft set the Mode if i change the Transpondermode in Aircraft. So the one and only Aircraft i can't fly online is the DC6. Torsten Buettner Roberto XIVAP doesn't work like an FSX-Addon and you can't Change the Mode with an Click. The DATAREF sim/cockpit2/radios/transponder_mode never Change and if i set it to 1 or 2 it fall back immediatly to 0 Torsten Buettner
June 3, 201610 yr Commercial Member Flightfactor has made a Mode called custom Radio to get it to work. Which leads me to believe that they're not looking properly at the XPL transponder dataref. We're sending our data through the default dataref, to my knowledge. Kyle Rodgers
June 3, 201610 yr The thing is in my observation: the X-Palne dataref only changes when both the left and the right (captain and FO side) transponder modes in the DC-6 are set to at least SBY mode: thereafter manipulating the left transponder mode selector will succefully change the dataref to ON/ALT. When starting from cold and dark and rotating only the left transponder selector manipulator, the dataref is stuck to "off".

June 3, 201610 yr Author thx this work both to Alt and my Modeselector in XIVAP changed thx Torsten Buettner
June 3, 201610 yr I had a problem with this on Vatsim. Managed to solve this by setting the left-side Transponder to ON after the takeoff checklist is completed. The AFE set it to ALT mode and perhaps that is normal procedure.

The AFE set it to ALT mode and perhaps that is normal procedure. Using the AFE entirely will solve this issue as he'll set both to ALT. It's only when one isn't set to ON/ALT that it shows standby. This has been reported back to the team. Both the mode and code should be chosen by the XPDR selector (bottom left of the capt side panel). If it's on CAPT, only CAPT should matter and report mode and code. EDIT: Full names in the forum, please - first and last. Kyle Rodgers
