JF Arrow DME Issue

[Bobsk8 12,492]

All of a sudden, the DME display will not light up in the Arrow 3. It was working a week or so ago. I suspect the latest update, anyone else see this?

Works fine here . Did you turn it on? Also do you have any biding for avionic switch?

I turned it on, and no bindings for avionics that I know of, will have to check if there is one for DME , GPS works fine ( 530)

Tried that, NG, DME is as dead as a door nail. Did you use the 4.0a upgrade or just 4.0...? Anyway, I put a ticket in with JF.

Frankly I'm not sure I have to check. I updated next day after receiving JF email

You've got a new profile pic!!!

I didn’t know there was a 4.0a update. What’s changed? I only have 4.0

That indeed is a good question. No changelog for 0.4.0a.

An regarding the DME. Is it possible that you are using the GNS530 layout? The DME is misplaced and overlapped by the ADF unit. Thats a bug for sure. Attached you will see a screenshot with the very small clickspot to activate it. Sadly one can't fix the panel.cfg anymore with ease like in the past. Same goes why the hell is the Garmin 100 on the side of the 750? Makes no sense at all. Hope the next update will fix it.

Cheers

You are right, I never noticed that switch cause it is overlapped  by the ADF below it. I guess when I reinstalled it, the default was back on. Somehow it had turned itself off.
