Marker beacons in PM

[Jackpilot]

Is there any way to get the marker beacons OM MM IM in PM?
I know they are slowly desappearing in real world but was nice to have.
Are they available in the PFD/ND?

[Tomlin]

Hmmm...they show up in PMRJ for me...

[Jan Pemöller]

yes, they are in the boeing software!

[Jackpilot]

Do not have them on screen....any special key?

Well they don't show up as ndb's. Some OM are at the same time also an ndb and will show up on the ND. The markers will show as a blue OM, yellow MM, and a white IM on the PFD when you pass over.

If it's co-located with the OM, it is then called a compass locator.

I Know that they are not identified on the Nav display but they should flash on the top right corner of the PFD when the airplane passes over...I have the sound but nothing on the PFD.
I use the last build. Any suggestion

Hello,

does anyone now how to turn on the sound when passing inner and outer marker? Is there an offset for PM Sound available? I think it is still a must to hear the sound in an IFR equiped aircraft.

Thanks for any help

Activate the sound on the Mrks button of the radio management panel. It is an FS sound.
A bit like the ident on the Nav radios. There is probably a keyboard command..check on FS.

Here's the fsuipc offset.

<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=2 width="80%" border=1><TBODY><TR><TD vAlign=top width=57>
3122
</TD><TD vAlign=top width=65>
1
</TD><TD vAlign=top>Radio audio switches (FS2002+ only). Read/write bit settings as follows: 2^7 COM1 transmit
2^6 COM2 transmit
2^5 COM receive both
2^4 NAV1 sound
2^3 NAV2 sound
2^2 Marker sound
2^1 DME sound
2^0 ADF1 sound
</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

If you're using sioc I can post the code I use when I get home from work tomorrow.

Hi , i use SIOC and i have the same problem. Can you send me this code ? Thanks in advance.

Here's the code. The red part is to set mrker sound to on and the green part is to indicate that it's on with a led.
