Hi,

How do I pop-up the GNS530/430 from Milviz's C310 Redux plane? I couldn't find the answer after reading the manual. I also google searched and found suggestion for editing the panel.cfg and RealityXP.GTN.ini but this didn't work for me.  Ideally right clicking the screen (not the bezel) on the panel should pop-up the 2D panels and likewise right clicking on the 2D windows should close it.

Also, how do I make the power/on of button on both units functional?

Not sure why this doesn't work automatically and why we have to google search.

I have the latest versions of the plane, RealityXP (all), and Windows 10 Pro. Thank you.

 

Just saw this post... lets continue in this thread.

Yes, you can set up the ini file to give you a popup window.. either left click or right click, your choice.

As for power on, the GNS usually is set to power on with avionics power.  What are you seeing?

I have not touched the 310 in some time, but do have it installed, so we can do some comparisons if needed.

P3D or FSX?

And which panel config? The GNS530+430?

@Bert Pieke  and @fppilot My pc specs or platform are in my signature. But in case you are not seeing it, I have the latest versions of the Milviz 310R Redux, the RXP GNS v2 and GTN, P3D v4.5, and Windows Pro..  I only have the GNS  actually installed in the 310 (the GTN is installed in the PC but is not being used in any plane). My Norton anti-virus is disabled.

I've read the Users Manual for the GNS and scanned the Garmin manual for the 530, and know how to setup the gauges in the Addons menu as well as how to right click the top edges of the 2D panels to get to the configuration menus. I didn't touch or change anything in the configuration menus.

The 530 is the Master device and the 430 is the 2nd device. Below the 430 is the WX Advantage. Since I installed these gauges a long time ago but just tried to use the GNS recently, I don't remember if the WX Weather Advantage gauge, which apparently works, is the default that came with the 310 or if I it is the unit I bought and installed separately. I believe it is the former (the default).

1. The 530 and 430 automatically turn on after both engines are running and after I toggle up the 'Avionics Master'  in the 310.
2. All the buttons on the 530 and 430 in the virtual cockpit work (eg. CDI, OBS, MSD, Menu, CLR, ENT, cursor buttons, etc)..... EXCEPT the C and the V knobs on the LEFT side of both panels.
3. The C and V knobs can be turned or adjusted but not turned on or off in the 2D panels.
4. For the pop-up issue, I checked the popright value in the file RealityXP.GNS.ini and changed it to "popright=14401", but just noted that there is no "ident=xx" field in the vcockpit0x sections of the panel.cfg file.

Thank you both for the quick reply.

Well I see you have run through a great checklist.  You found a critical item was not checked but you did not mention results.  I sincerely hope the missing ident= variable is the cause.  Please let us know.  We enjoy seeing success. 

The 310 Redux did come bundled with a version of the wx gauge that had use limited to that one aircraft.  Like you I also purchased the separate retail version.  I lost my FSX system in early August and with my new system migrated to FSX SE as an interim step, awaiting MSFS 2020.  I have been unable to use that wx gauge in SE.  I get a message that it is not compatible with my version of the simulator.  I decided to just remove it from my 310.  I only had the retail version installed in one other aircraft that I have not installed in the new system, a bit exhausted from all of the activity surrounding attempts to rescue my previous system, build and install a new system, and look forward to a new simulator.  It has been quite an experience, and it certainly is not yet over.  It appears REX has abandoned that wx gauge.

@ fppilot and @Bert Pieke

Good Morning!

I have no results yet. I wish I could say that I succeeded but it's still not working: I still have no pop-ups and the C and V knobs on the panels in the virtual cockpit of the 530 and the 430 are still unresponsive.

I probably still need to change or add the appropriate "ident" value in the panel.cfg of the 310 for both the 530 and 430 installed in the Milviz C310 Redux.

I don't know if these files will help but I am including the contents of the three GNS RXP log files found in my Documents folder below appended. After those three files below,  I also attached the contents of the "panel.cfg" and the "RealityXP.GNS.ini" file for the 310.

Good morning to you too!

First thing to do, is to match up the ident numbers between the panel windows and the ini file, they do not currently match.

Suggest editing the ini file to:

[GNS_530_1.DEFAULT]
......
; right mouse button on the screen toggles popup window by ident (ex: GPS_PANEL or 225).
popright = 15531

and

[GNS_430_2.DEFAULT]
.....
popright = 15432

Second question is whether you want to use the right mouse button... you can also assign these values to popleft, and use the left mouse button, your call.

I would blame the mismatch on Milviz, they are known for not taking responsibility for 3rd party GPS integration, even when they provide the files.. can be very frustrating.

Lastly, your power buttons.. as best I know they are not simulated, and you should not expect them to work.  You can set the GNS gauges to power up with the battery or with the avionics switch, again, your call.

BTW, you can always pop up the GNS windows with shift+4 and shift+5 if you cannot access them otherwise..

Let us know how you make out!

I experienced issues when attempting to use the default in some aircraft and found 100% success following this method  from page 14 of the user's manual:

-------------------------
The automatically generated RealityXP.GNS.ini file in the aircraft folder has [GNS_###_#.DEFAULT] sections for each device
found in the panel. Each gauge sibling uses the default settings from this section, for example [GNS_530_1.DEFAULT]. Should
you want a particular instance of the gauge (one sibling) to use other than 'DEFAULT' settings, a new named section must be
created and the gauge 5th parameter must be set to this new section name.
For example, to set the VC instance to render without a bezel (screen only): copy and paste the gauge 'DEFAULT' section to
the end of the RealityXP.GNS.ini file, change the suffix from 'DEFAULT' to 'NO_BEZEL' then edit the new section settings.

popleft = 14531
 

From my panel.cfg file:

(note: my window## sections are numbered to conform to a yoke setting I use, and my  pos and sizes are custom configured to size and position the popups where I want them)

Sure, you can do that.. but lets do it the simple way first.. 🙂

It should work just fine.

Hi,

How do I pop-up the GNS530/430 from Milviz's C310 Redux plane?
 

 

 

Did you get it working? 🙂

@Bert Pieke Yes, the pop-ups work. Thank you very much.

I have follow-up questions:

1.  Which panel configuration files do the popright values come from eg. the 15531 in "popright = 15531"?  Are these constants or reserved values (by RXP) or are they arbitrarily selected and that's okay so long as they are the same to the ident= value?

2. The 2D panels display up or are open when loading the plane. How do I make them visible only when desired or popped-out?

3. The 530 automatically turns on (unlike the 430) when the plane loads. Why? The battery is not even on when the plane is 'cold and dark'. How do I default to the 'off' state?

The Power buttons on the left side of the 530 and 430 have tool tips when the cursor is hovered over them which seems to indicate that they are supposed to be functional. But you said they are non-functional, can you please confirm?

You are welcome!

Lets see if I can answer your questions..

1. These are the common numbers that RXP tends to use, but you can change them to whatever you like, as long as they match.

2.  in Window03 and 04, delete these lines

visible=1
always_visible=1

You can replace it by

visible=0

3.  Check the power options for each of the GNS gauges in the RXP settings window and adjust them to your preference. Your ini file shows the current settings as PowerKnob = DEFAULT_ON and PowerSource as ALWAYS_ON.

If you change the PowerSource to Avionics On, and PowerKnob to DEFAULT_OFF you should be able to do what you are looking for.

See User Manual page 11..

I believe the default for the PowerKnob is Volume only..  in which case the power button is inop.

BTW.. you said earlier that you also have the GTN750 installed..

I actually use the GTN750 in my C310... something to consider as an option.. 😉
