Jet45 Advanced Avionics Suite version 1.0.0.5

Added PFD2 RA//BARO Button Offset 73D6 to give independent selection of the RA/BARO on each of the PFD Display Units.

Gentlemen, I wanna to add for further updates on our lovely Jet45 AAS suite. Please respond below with your thoughts.

 

Bug fixes to complete:

- RA/BARO/MINIMUMS offset fix to get functions work properly

- ECS page on EICAS does not show up

- reload of .pln into MFD does not work properly

 

New feature requests:

- TCAS works with online traffic (IVAO/VATSIM)

- WX works on MFD/ND (maybe get the data from Active Sky Next or directly from FSX/P3D)

Hey Chris, your right on the money with these items and it's a good idea to keep all the issues and wish list on one page in this thread. The administrators of Hangar45 will help with that.

 

But lets talk about your ECS. Are your talking about the ECS on your MFD (DU2)? If so, that should work. Double check your offsets and parameters.

 

Offset Byte Set 73F8 x08

Hi Chris, unless I'm misunderstanding your request, "TCAS works with online traffic (IVAO/VATSIM) " is already implemented, at least with VATSIM while using squawkbox. Works wonderfully well!

Eric, just need testing on this because the manual (1.0.0.5) still shows "At this time live traffic from online sessions is not displayed on the TCAS screen." But nice to hear that it should work now!

 

Ron, I am talking about the ECS page on the EICAS (I think DU3?!). Over there it does not show up when using the correct offset + parameter. On the MFD it works great, you're right.

 

Next bug fix request...

When I load a FPL into the MFD for the first time it shows the correct plan in regard to the actual position of the aircraft. Later on in flight when I change the actual GPS plan (insert a fix maybe) and reload this plan into the MFD, it does not show the correct route. Instead it shows the loaded route (completely) starting at the actual aircraft position (e.g. in flight). And no delete of the old route. So every time there is a change on the fly within the GPS plan I have to close the MFD, reopen and then load the changed route.

I think I have the same issue on my DU3. I will do some testing.

Chris and Ron- Regarding the old route still showing on the MFD when loading a new one- this is a limitation of the software since the CDU will actually handle the "refreshing" of the MFD in real time. Right now the solution is to simply restart the MFD and the new plan will be able to be loaded.
