Prosim 737, Prepar3d V4, PMDG 737 - Startup

Recommended Posts

When I upgraded to the latest version, I could never get the engines to start. I am using an actual overhead connected to the sim via Prosim737.  It took me a long time to figure out the combinations to get it to work. This is what I came up with that actually works. I use an Opencockpits CDU/MCP/EFIS. So I don't get to see some of the PMDG options that most have used in their startup document. Any updates or suggestions?

And you are sure all your OVHD buttons and switches are working correct AND do what they should do in the virtual cockpit?

The switches may be connected to prosim but that doesn't mean their function will also go into the PMDG.

What puzzle's me is the combination Prosim737 and PMDG: do they even work together?

Prosim V1 works best icw their freeware Jetstream 737-800 model or Payware model V2 .

The current Prosim V2 can be used with model V2 , but works best icw model V2.6x .

Your mix  cannot work optimal ...

I am using PMDG737. I have to use ProSim to connect all the overhead, MIP, buttons to the simulator. I have other HW that needs ProSim to connect to the Simulator

For Prosim V2 :

- Go to the Prosim 737 updates section ( you need to have Prosim V2 installed )

You need to have Dyn Lights enabled in P3D ( see the aircraft manual ) ...

Thanks.  For all your help.  The model is easy to configure and very smooth .  The issue is that my buttons don’t work when I look at the overhead fwd panel. Just the light buttons.  All others work.
