RXP GTN 650 Not Showing

Featured Replies

I have the latest Garmin & RXP software installed.  Using the GPS Management Tool, I selected the "Reality XP GTN 750/650", two unit layout in the Lear 35.  I'm using the non-FMS model.  The GTN 750 displays and works properly.  However, the GTN 650 is just there, the screen is black and the buttons do not work.   If I select the RXP GTN 750 2 Unit layout, both GTN 750s load and function properly.

Any thoughts on to get the GTN 650 to work?  I have the REX/Milviz radar, which I'm also having problems with but I believe it's on REX's end. 

Thanks,

Rich Boll

Rich. You may have the 650 configured incorrectly in your panel.cfg file.  You can use (2) two RXP GTN's in an aircraft.  You have for your use 650_1 and 650_2, and 750_1 and 750_2.  When you have two RXP GTNs in one aircraft, one must be a _1 and the other must be a _2,  Check your panel.cfg and see if both the 650 and 750 are the same (_1 or _2)  if so change one of them and see if that works.

If not there is a dedicated RXP support forum here on Avsim and I recommend you post the question there.  Just make sure you post in the appropriate forum there per sim platform (FSX/P3D or xPlane) and GTN (as opposed to GNS).

Rich,

I just tried it and both the GTN750 and GTN650 work for me. I'm using the latest P3D ver5.2 with HF1. Note the WX has not been updated by Milviz for this version. I think you have my email, send me your panel cfg file and I'll take a look at it.

Hi Frank & Al,

Here's what my panel.cfg file says about the two units:

 

[Window02]
size_mm = 100,100
window_pos = 0.000000,0.101010
window_size = 0.487662,0.797980
visible = 1
always_visible = 0
zorder = 99
background_color = 0,0,0
ident = 15751
gauge00 = rxpGTN!GTN_750_1, 0, 0,100,100
gauge01 = CONTROL_PANEL!clipboard GTN750 REALITYXP 1,   0,39,14,55

[Window03]
size_mm = 100,100
window_pos = 0.512338,0.323232
window_size = 0.487662,0.353535
visible = 1
always_visible = 0
zorder = 99
background_color = 0,0,0
ident = 15652
gauge00 = rxpGTN!GTN_650_2, 0, 0,100,100
gauge01 = CONTROL_PANEL!clipboard GTN650 REALITYXP 2,   0,70,14,32

[VCockpit37]
size_mm = 1024,1024
pixel_size = 1024,1024
visible = 1
texture = $GTN750RXP
background_color = 0,0,0
gauge00 = rxpGTN!GTN_750_1,  0,0,677,794

[VCockpit38]
size_mm = 1024,1024
pixel_size = 1024,1024
texture = $XPGTN650_2
background_color = 0,0,0
gauge00 = rxpGTN!GTN_650_2,  0,0,677,297

 

I did get the REX/Mliviz radar to work.  I had an old version (thought it was the current one).  When I got the latest off the REX website from May, it fixed the issue.

I'll post over the RXP website as well.  See what they know.  

 

Thanks,

Please disregard all.  I found out what the problem was.  It was so STUPID, that i don't want to talk about ! 🙂 

 

Al & Frank...thanks for your help!

Al, I haven't forgotten about our earlier discussions.  I got busy with non-flight sim stuff.  We'll catch up soon, I hope!

Thanks again!
