NEW Beta PMDG 737 for MSFS v0.6 (24 May 2022)

[ScotFlieger 280]

This module has been developed for use with the PMDG 737 running on MSFS 2022.

The module requires use with LINDA 4.1.4 and FSUIPC7 7.3.3 or later. 

Due to delays with MSFS exposing Lvars to FSUIPC7 on start-up, it is strongly recommended that you start MSFS2020, load the PMDG 737 ready to fly and wait a minute before starting FSUIPC7 and LINDA. It is also recommended to click Restart LUA Engine as the last thing.

Default configuration setup files are provided for all VRi MCP panels and CDU2/3. It has not been tested with the Original VRI MCP and no guarantees can be offered.

Version 0.6 Beta provides significant functionality based on previous PMDG 737 modules for P3D. The main changes in this version are:

• Added Landing Lights Both On and Off functions
• Added Landing Lights Fixed and Retractable functions
• Added HGS/HUD functionality
• Renamed Pedestal Engine Start Lever functions
• Fixed CRS L inc and dec functions
• Fixed AP Info display error (CMDA/CMDB)
• Updated VRI MCP2 Default configuration
• Added Restart WASM and Lvar checks
• Added additional Internal Lighting functions
• Added VRI MCP2a Default configuration 
• Updated VRI MCP1 Default configuration 
• Fixed Transponder / TCAS functionality
• Added extra EFIS FO Knob functionality
• Fixed Standby Compass Light
• Fixed Transponder
• Fixed Aileron Trim
• Fixed Rudder Trim
• Fixed Autobrake
• Fixed Landing Gear ***

NOTE *** If the landing gear fails to operate in the external view check on the MCDU System menu that you have no HYD failures.

The module makes use of a number of extra features provided by FSUIPC7 including WAPI/WASM. These features allow LINDA to access the Lvars and offsets as well Hvar and .EVT events. Users will need to make several changes to their set up to fully exploit these features.

• Edit FSUIPC-WASM.INI to add the entry LvarScanDelay=x where x is 45 or 60. See FSUIPC7 Advanced User document pg 45.
• Edit FSUIPC7.INI to add the entry UseAirLocForProfiles=Yes under the [General] block.
• Ensure block [WAPI] / EnableWAPI=Yes is present in FSUIPC7.INI.

The PMDG 737 should display around 1820 to 1880 Lvars and no Hvars. A problem with Lvars will display a Check Lvars message. Any value different from these or the warning will require that MSFS and FSUIPC7/LINDA be restarted.

Report any problems and issues on the LINDA Support sub-forum.
