REX/Milviz Wx Advantage Radar?

[GHarrall 494]

Has anyone tried or succeeded in replacing the default wx radar in the Navajo VC with the REX / Milviz Wx Radar?

 

it seems like a good fit but I have no idea how to make it work?

 

Thanks,

Glenn,

 

Korber recently assisted me in setting up radar in the Realair B60. I will attempt the same with the PA31 and report back later today or tomorrow.

Thanks, that would be great. Any learning you could pass along in terms of the process would be great too.

Glenn,

 

I had partial success. Below are the additions I made to panel.cfg: .

 

1.) Change in Vcockpit03:

 

from : gauge00=WX_Gauge_3D_PA31310!WXGauge,

 

To:    gauge00=MV_WX!WX,

 

 

2.)  For the 2d pop-up, you can use the WX Advantage Radar Installation tool , or do it manually.

 

The hard part for me is lining up the gauge using the set of four number as coordinates. that follow the gauge ID. There are several people with much more knowledge than me that hopefully can chime in. Please let me know how you make out.
