    Yesterday I made a flight, as usual, but...when it was time to set FD ON, I've noticed theses stranges things : FD switches were ON but the Master light was off above "my" FD switch. AT couldn't be armed, and the TRP was off...

    I've tried to manage the issue...and I found a thing, I had to test again the ADC 1 & 2 on the overhead to bring back theses sytems ON...

    So, here, we have a solution to avoid this, but this behaviour was strange !

    Whichever FD you turn on first should have the Master light over it, so if you turn off the captain side and flip it back on the FO FD will show master, as it was on first when you cycled the Captain one.

    @Sergekoko I know perfectly that, this is why I write "my", suggesting I was PF, and the FD on my side have to be the master one, and it was the first to be switch ON . But this is not the point here ;)

    Glad im not the only one!

    I wasnt aware about that workaround you found. Usually I just abandon the flight.

    So far I think this issue only happens if you have state saving enabled. I disabled it trying to troubleshoot the issue and so far so good, but I think there's a bug here

    With regards to some systems (like the TRP and YD) not being functional following a change of aircraft state on the EFB, this possibly could be misunderstood for the FGC test. If the aircraft's power supply is changed when switching states (such as Cold and Dark > Turnaround) an FGC Test will be triggered once the power is restored. Off the top of my head, the FGC Test takes 45 seconds to complete after power has been applied to the aircraft and during that time, a few systems such as the TRP and YD will not be functional. Once the FGC Test is complete, an FGC PASS message will appear at the top right corner of the PFD.

    However, we have also found a situation where the FGC Test logic can get confused if a state change is triggered prior to the test being completed. We will be implementing some changes in the next update to the RJ Professional to try and mitigate this.

    I just had this happen for unknown reason. Flows were same as last 10 flights. ADC tests didn't help.
