Hi,

The AP is on and reads
GPS AP ALT 1500ft.
The gtn750 is on GPS.
Plz.help?

I solved the problem by clicking the blue sd-card, until the pms750 started itself. By now it works perfect.
I don’t know if I missed something in the manual. If so… sorry.
Have to find out if I have to click the blue sd-card or if it remembers the pms750.

It does not function when starting the flight. It looks like it, but doesn’t follow the fp. Also the fp track on the screen of the 750 is not visible. The track is visible in the 530

The only time you should have to click the SD card is if you have the TDS GTNxi installed, but you wish to use the PMS50 GTN instead. If you're not using the TDS GTNxi, but had it installed previously, removing it from your community folder will cause the aircraft to default to the PMS50 GTN. The aircraft should always default to the PMS50 GTN, if you've never had the TDS GTNxi installed. As for the flight plan, I don't have anything to do with that behavior, but there is an option in one of the tools menus of the PMS50 GTN to load the flight plan from the simulator, if it is not automatically loaded for some reason.

Thanks BS. I never owned the tds, but had some wtt mods for the pms50. I removed them from the community folder to be certain.
I then uninstalled your exe and removed the pms50etc folder.
Restarted and installed the exe and the pms50 folder from a fresh download again.
The next flight was without problems. Will test with another FP further.
