[brianwilliamson]

Anyone with a cockpit that is using FDS Interfaceit cards:Can you get the Landing Lights to turn On/Off ??...........Brian W.

Hi Brian..... Yes you can.Very easy to setup via fmgs softwareMichael

[brianwilliamson]

Thanks for the reply Michael, I have set the switches up ok with the ITT software in FMGS and it picks up both switches perfectly, but no lights. So if yours is working, then I have a problem somewhere in the setup etc.The switches for the overhead are connected via the FDS card onto the server computer which has the main FMGS software, so that should notcause a glicth I would not think...........but one never knows.I will go back and see what I can find, at least I now know that yours is ok.Many thanks.............Brian W.

Do the lights turn on & off when you view the a/c from outside?

Thanks Michael, I am not able to see the front of the aircraft when everything is running on WideView and Immersive Display Pro, but On the Server running P3D I can see enough in front to tell and also on the front screen I can tell.The landing lights seem to be on all the time but are that weak they must be running on solar panels...............I cannot turn them off or on with the overhead switches, although it will work intermittently, as well using "L" on the Server computer. So there is some sort of connection but it is not complete, which makes it hard to find. ............…All the 2 boxes in P3D for "Landing Lights Illuminate Ground" and "Pilot Controls Aircraft Lights" in both server and 3 Clients are ticked............… Will go out and have another look at it, but seems perhaps it could be related to the InterFaceIT connections software wise.Cheers...........Brian W.
