IRS & Display issues

Featured Replies

Hello!
 
I recently bought the PMDG 737NGX, and I have been unable to start up from cold and dark. This is what I usually do:

Battery > Emergency Lights > Ground Power (fmc) > Ground Power Switch > IRS
 
When I try to align the IRS, I get alarms and lights. https://gyazo.com/70d60c23bfca79e434644d427776dbaf

 

The alarms don't usually stop, but when I eventually look down at my cockpit, I see this: http://bit.ly/2kPCxos

 

Next, onto the panels. I have tried many different ways of starting this NGX up from cold and dark, and on the ones where you use APU instead of a GPU, I don't get alarms but the IRS's still don't align. On all of them, I get the same thing as shown in the image above with the panels: the Captain's PFD, ND and the upper ECAS don't come on. 

 

Some help would be appreciated! 

 

Signed,

Jacob Passam

Hi,

Can you post a screenshot of you overhead?

Hi,

 

That's what I suspected, your standby power switch is off. Look just above the ground power switch.
You must set it to AUTO (close the black guard and the switch will be on AUTO).

Thanks! It's working now. I don't know what had switched that off. Your advice was helpful. <3

I don't remember exactly but the cold and dark state panel could have it off when you load it.
