Steam Gauge Overhaul

I hear the stall warning when activating the test switch that you are referring to. Could it be a tripped circuit breaker?

Disregard. For any unknown reason it suddenly works. There were no changes from my side...

I just found out the electrical_circuit_toggle event (146) is the key to activate both prop test gov and gnd idle stop functions.

@taipan303 Just in case someone wants to map rudder and electric trim switches Rudder => CIRCUIT SWITCH ON:125 (1) ON (0) OFF Elect Trim => CIRCUIT SWITCH ON:73 (1) ON (0) OFF

@gcarlson Cheers Gary, worked for me too!

Ah. That’s interesting. I’ll check that out. Many thanks. Richard

I have taken the advice of Anderson and removed the TDS gauge from the community file. This allows the pms 750 to work ( albeit in the TDS panel ). I assume if I uninstall the TDS altogether it may show the pms panel but I’m happy with the compromise! Richard

@jamest_il said in Windshield de-icing in the Caravan: I also have this problem. @philipj @leclettico @born2fly75 If you would like someone to look into this your best bet would be to contact Just Flight support. https://community.justflight.com/topic/2/product-support https://www.justflight.com/support https://support.justflight.com/support/solutions/folders/17000141029

@haseen On the Discord channel, the developer has said that the WT module will not affect the 172 in any way.

I'm having a huge fps drop as well. Mine happens on at the air, losing ~20 fps, and gets even worse after landing. It happens only in the King Air

@oldsimmer you probably forgot the the "IGNITION AND ENGINE START" to down position. Try again.

If you start at night, and if the emergency light is off, your headlight should already be on (MSFS default feature). The emergency light is directly connected to the battery bus so you can turn it on even with battery disconnected. All other lights in the cabin are powered through the generator bus, but you can still manually close the gen bus to power the lights with the battery. Procedure : If not already, turn on emergency light (overhead panel, right side) switch on the battery master (pilot panel, left side) close the generator bus, "Gen Tie Man" > close (pilot panel, center/left) turn on the lights (overhead panel, left side) manually adjust each light knob Then you can start your checklist. Beware that you will draw much more current from the battery and may have to wait the battery charge.

@punch try these tips increase the torque slowly so governor can do its job right, otherwise prop rpm will go over redline; wait NG stabilize at 19.5% (wait at least 3s after reaching 19.5%) then move mixture to Slow Idle, you will notice the ITT should not go over ITT start redline and no damage to the engines. I got these instructions from a video of a real King Air pilot, I have had no problem since then.

@cptdiac Black Square need to implement the GS needle to read the feed as per the developer guide provided by PMS50 for the GTN750

@bert-pieke said in Does anyone monitor this forum?: A number of posts have had no answer.. in days.. weeks.. We dip in and out but it is mainly for forum members to discuss software. If you need with anby title we develop, puiblish or sell, your best bet is always to contact Just Flight support. There is a link on the website www.justflight.com or www.justtrains.net

@ape42 Thanks, this was useful to me. For anyone looking to know which circuits to switch on for each of the lights, the event to use is "CIRCUIT SWITCH ON:" and below I've listed the Circuit numbers as well as screenshots of my SPAD potentiometer bindings for 3 rotary switches (increase side only, the decrease is the reverse to decrement but turning the circuits off is optional). INSTRUMENT LIGHTS HARDWARE KNOB: engine inst = 39 pilot inst = 40 copilot inst = 41 radio inst = 50 [image: 9fc9d008-7af2-4af8-b70a-1eecd97c685a.png] CONSOLE LIGHTS HARDWARE KNOB: circuit breaker 90 pedestal 38 [image: 95b8c468-0c36-42a4-a44e-1ade88fd0cd4.png] FLOOD LIGHTS HARDWARE KNOB: pilot flood 36 copilot flood 37 [image: b7ba7b6e-f1ef-4782-b543-456b0b75bcc9.png] One bit of strangeness that happens is the first time I turn the lights up with my hardware they go to full power. EDIT: Solved this by adding an extra line with higher priority to first sync the Potentiometer value to the LVAR (Glareshield/Panel) value. It seems MSFS Potentiometers might start fully on, but the LVARs will start fully off. Also 2 other things I'd like to map but can't find how are the No Smoking and Seatbelt light switches. Not sure if these are actually functional though? But they do click into position and move, I can't see any lights in the cabin. However I do have 2 spare switches in that position so I wouldn't mind mapping them. The default Asobo seatbelt/smoking airliner events don't work.
