COM2

[StewartH]

Flying P3dv4.2, with both the above GTN instruments installed.  How does one access the COM2 frequency that's dialed in on the GTN650?  There is no COM/NAV panel that allows switching back and forth between COM1 and COM2.  And the GTN750 Audio Panel only allows access to COM1.  Am I missing something obvious?  Hope so.

On the GTN750 click on audio panel and a pop-up window will come up showing COM1 or COM2 selections....

Cheers

Thanks, Martin, I also thought that, but no joy, as I stated above.  The audio panel window only gives me a choice for COM1.  I suspecting a set-up error on my part.

[StewartH]

Bump.  The GTN Setup utility does not solve the problem.  Still only COM1 available in the GTN750.

Stew, might want to float this question over on the Flight1 GTN750  support page? Maybe they have seen this before.

Good luck.

What happens if you simply click on the space next to where the "1" is displayed without clicking to explicitly bring up the audio panel?  You should be able to click in that blank space and have a "2" appear next to the "1".

It would also be interesting to see what would happen if you brought up the underlying Garmin trainer itself and tried it there.

For what it's worth, I use the RXP versions replacing the F1 units in the Baron and the 310 Redux and it works fine.

Thanks, Martin and Scott.  I will explore the possibilities and report back.  Just an FYI, Scott, I first realized something was goofy when I did as you suggested and clicked the space next to the "1" and nothing happened.  I'll see what happens with the Garmin Trainer, however.

[StewartH]

Quick update:  The Garmin trainer works as advertised in bringing up COM2, either by clicking the space next to the "1", or by clicking on the audio panel.  Probably will uninstall/re-install the dual 750/650 package again, or else something is goofy between the package and the MVAM interface.

We will be looking at this later today.

Sounds good.  I'll hold off on the reinstall then.

Check the Radio section in the aircraft.cfg file..

Hi, Bert!  Sounds like you're on to something.  What am I looking for?

What does this section look like, post it here!

 

Com2 should be 1,1

That is precisely what COM2 is set for:

	[Radios]
// Radio Type = availiable, standby frequency, has glide slope
Audio.1       = 1
Com.1         = 1, 1
Com.2         = 1, 1
Nav.1         = 1, 1, 1
Nav.2         = 1, 1, 1
Adf.1         = 1
Transponder.1 = 1
Marker.1      = 1

Yep, I can confirm this also.
