A320 FMGS beta 30

[asessa]

I searched for that a lot in different manuals, and I'm 99% sure this is not related to FMGS phase but only FPLN entry.

Ok, in any case, i asked this to my friend, a real A33x captain, and i'm waiting for his response

Hi JL,

how do I open the doors and cargo doors? When using the FSX keys the DOOR/OXY Display does not show the Status open.

hi jl,
my name is filippo from rome, italy.
i'm not in the "airbus family" ...not yet at least
i actually own a 737 ng dual seat trainer built by myself and running smoothly.
i was just evaluating a possible switching in the future to the 320.
your piece of software looks promising and the airbus community should thank u for the years coming!
i just made a quick install of your suite today just to give it a quick try...of course i have no airbus hardware connected.
my setup uses 2 pcs: server pc where fs (p3d) runs as long as fmgs server+ap/fbw+fcu+overhead+mcdu and 1 client pc where i tried to run cpt pfd&nd+fo pfd&nd+ewd+sd....
having troubles on client pc since fo pfd doesn't start even if selected in the starter.ini....fo nd keeps being black...and the cpt pfd reacts VERY slowly with big lags and delays.
may all this depend on too many displays on 1 pc?
hope not to have posted in the wrong section.
all the best
filippo

Thanks for the new update! Tried it out tonight so here are some feedback. (Mostly minor things)

Can anybody please confirm my issue that TO INHIBIT remains on for the entire flight? Or please drop a line if you do not have the issue.

1. I can confirm this for B30 at our setup. The TO INHIBIT remains on after 1st T/O and never goes out.

2. Also during T/O only SRS was active on the FMA, no RWY.

The following were apparent also in earlier versions.

3. After a light test the FDS FCU goes black, until you press reset in hardware connect.

4. The FDS radios are reversed, the inner (big) knob is decimals and outer (small) the first digits.

5. Quite often on SIDs the ND draws the route as if we were flying in the opposite direction (with a 180 degree turn), but still flies the correct route (direct). Also the magenta "speed restriction" dot and TOC still remains on the actual route (not on the green line). Sometimes also a 360 loop over waypoints.

6. Two times (at least once when loading a CORTE) the whole route on the ND was in cyan. (As for the missed approach procedure)

7. With B30 I still only gets CAT I with dual APs. (Ovhd on client computer).

8. In B29 I noticed that if the ND was in plan mode as you entered a STAR the ND crashed almost every time as you where in the TMPY FPLN mode.

Overall the suite works very well . This weekend we flew several longer legs in one session without any problem at all with B29.

Hello Filippo,

What are the specs of your client PC? NDs are very CPU intensive, so it is possible that they eat up all your CPU. For such a setup (with all displays on 1 computer) I think a quad core is necessary, or at least a very good dual core.
Also, up to date video drivers may do some good.

Best regards,
JL
