PB LINDA in Maddog X : AP2 conflit NAV1 and NAV2

Featured Replies

Hello community,

I use Leonardo MaddogX (1.3) written by Guenter Steiner, find in the folder P3D V4\Modules\linda-cfg\aircrafts

1 - When i use AP2 under the command switch autopilot on the glareshield, the NAV1 and NAV2  flashing and pass from one to another

2  i can't send any frequencies NAV1 and NAV2  via my VR insight MCP COMBO II.

3 IDEM for the ADF frequencies (no possibility)

4 i have the same problem in FSX (conflit NAV1 & NAV2) and  i can't use shared cockpit in CM2 with AP2.

Hi team
objet : FSX or P3D \ Switch AP2 (DFGC2) malfunction\ NAV1 conflict NAV2 \ LINDA\ MCP COMBO II
my configuration (important):
- Fly_The_Maddog_X_64bit_beta_1.5b486_P3Dv4.4_v4
- LINDA 3.0.9 for P3D 64 bit
- VRINSIGHT MCP COMBO II
When i switch on AP2 with the mouse on glareshield, i have always a conflict between NAV1 & NAV2 who flashing and pass from one to another.
I dont know if the problem derived from MADDOG X or LINDA.
When i retired the file :Leonardo MaddogX under the folder : P3D V4.5\MODULES\LINDA, the problem disappeared
but of course,  i lost the MCP COMBO II who permitted me command all the glareshield of the MADDOG X via LINDA....
 
In FSX (possibility of shared cockpit)
I have the same problem with MADDOG 2010, MCP COMBO II and LINDA
It's impossible to make shared cockpit in position CM2 because when i use AP2 the conflict between the NAV 1 and NAV2 appeared and stays
Impossible to fly in CM2 like this...

Hello Nicolas,

 

to be honest I never had tried out switching between AP1 and AP2 😉

 

But I could reproduce your iisue and found an easy fix:

- go to your LINDA maddog module folder Prepar3D v4\Modules\linda\aircrafts\Leonardo MaddogX

- open action.lua (with an editor, not with word!)

- scroll down to 

function Timer ()

 

there you can see the following block:

    -- set NAV display in VC
    NAV1var = ipc.readUW("0350")
    if ipc.get("NAV1var") ~= NAV1var then
        ipc.control(69633, NAV1var)
    end
    NAV1set = ipc.set("NAV1var", NAV1var)


    NAV2var = ipc.readUW("0352")
    if ipc.get("NAV2var") ~= NAV2var then
        ipc.control(69634, NAV2var)
    end
    NAV1set = ipc.set("NAV2var", NAV2var)
    

 

- Delete it completely and save the file.

 

Sorry for that bug!

Hello Guenseli;

Are you GOOD?

Very thank you for your response and the result. It works now in P3D and FSX(very good for shared cockpit).

The flashing between the two NAV 1 & 2 stops on AP2. Good job sir.

Please, i have an other request if you can ear me.

1 : I repeated this action this time : in FSX (LSH Maddog)  and before the update , i found transmit via MCP COMBO the frequencies on NAV 1 and 2. Now nothing happening!

2 : Same on P3D , except the transmission via Combo hasn't worked either before your solution.

3 : You haven't create the transmission via Combo for the the frequencies ADF 1 and 2 on P3D and FSX

  is this commmand of my own would be good....? i m not a specialist in LUA just a tourist😃

 ----------------------------------
    -- set ADF display in VC
    ADF1var = ipc.readUW("0350")
    ipc.control(69635, ADF1var)

    ADF2var = ipc.readUW("0352")
    ipc.control(69636, ADF2var)

 

THanks a lot
