Did .ini Parameters Change With 2.4.20.1 Release? (resolved)

Featured Replies

I started using the GNS 530 V2 with version 2.4.20. It was installed in RealAir Duke B60 v2 using the GPS 500 variant. After some help from Bert PIeke, it has been working beautifully.

This morning, I saw the notice from the update notifier that V 2.4.20.1 was available so I downloaded the update, unzipped the file, and ran the .exe installer which ran to completion successfully.

When I tried flying the Duke,I discovered that something was broken. It was behaving as if the panel Nav/GPS switch was no longer working - like it was stuck in NAV. Has the GNS 2.4.20.1 gotten stricter on .ini parameter defaults?  Reason I suspect this is that I did not have to put these into my .ini to get the Duke to work originally:

; connects GPS to Autopilot if true  Link0to = true

; connects GPS to HSI if true  LinkHSI=true

; connects CDI key to NAV/GPS switch if true  AutoNavGPS = true

I'm guessing that putting some or all of these into my .ini may solve my problem but, if this is my problem, I don't see how my original install ever worked.

Suggestions for fix will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Stephen Bickford

Addendum: 

Solved my own problem. Realized that I had managed to accidentally change setting for HSI Course versus GPs Course.in Duke configuration app. at some point after last flight before GNS update. Works fine with this corrected.
