MyPilotStore. It could be that keys wear out after enough use; I purchased Sept 2021. All the other keys are working well. It is just the very upper left key that the clicking has stopped. I have to push the key down hard to make it active
-
One of the keys is not working anymore. Can these devices be sent for repairs
-
looks like the firmware helped, thanks
-
Is there firmware that I need to update or is it just the bridge. v2023 causes a error when ran from a shortcut, v2022 does not do that. I am using the previous version (2022) of the bridge. Running cockpit EXE v2023 as administrator works but the shortcut never initializes and launch the program. So I wondered if I need a firmware update. I purchased this when is released back in the past

Actually, the aircraft does not have to sit there a while, that was mistyped. What happens when I load the flight with any of the PMDG aircraft the display does not come on. This happens more when the aircraft is first used after installation. Right now, it seems to be working, but sometimes after restarting P3D for a new flight the screen is blank. Restarting the computer can fix it. My guess us the USB connection gets flaky sometimes. In any case, the buttons on the Cockpit FMC does operate the FMC displayed on the screen. If that is happening, I am not sure why the display would not be seen since the connection is there. I am looking at getting the MPC and ESIS but need to be sure these are solid working products in any case. I have the Cockpit Master FMC in a USB 3 on a PCI board. A USB 3 hub seems to work as well but hubs can be flakey, even though I have a Anker powered hub. Should the CM FMC be directly put in a USB 3 on the motherboard?
-
I have found that if the bridge connected to the FMC and the aircraft sits long enough, the display is not shown in the Cockpit Master but is shown on the PMDG P3D FMC. The keys work but disconnecting USB and starting over does not help. It is a random issue because most of the time it works. I have the V2023 bridge. What I do as a work around is display the PMDG cockpit on the monitor and use it that way since pressing keys works. This has been a ongoing issue for some time. Anything else to try before I give up on the unit.

I have found that if the bridge connected to the FMC and the aircraft sits long enough, the display is not shown in the Cockpit Master but is shown on the VC FMC. The keys work but shutting down P3D or MSFS is the only way to fix it. I had hoped the menu P would have helped but it does not. Not sure if others have seen this but it has been a issue for a while. I have it plugged directly in the USB 3 computer and a good power hub. tried changing the USB cable. anything else to try?

I did take the chance and it kind of worked. The installer will not install if P3D 4 is not found. So I installed P3D 4 on a backup drive to get it to install. After that I just added the entries in the scenery.cfg file for P3D 5. Airports and scenery look amazing, and I will purchase the east side not that I know the west side works. The only side effect is some black buildings mostly around larger cities. I did remove the texture files in both folders and that helped, but it a few where left. I can live with the black buildings around and when there is a 3rd party airport like Orbx LOWS they pretty much go away. Since MSFS is out the developer will not make a version 5, but there are a lot of P3D flyers out there. Too bad there is not a p3d 5 version because this photo scenery is one of the best I have used. With the high mesh and texture settings in 4K it is awesome. So I am glad it was created.

I want to get this, but it says P3D 4 and I know a lot of 4 scenery works in 5. Would this work in 5.3 HF2
-
wow you are pretty fast on this, thanks

I did not have to do that as well. what config file do we need to edit.
-
I know this aircraft just got released. In summary the FMC does not connect when displayed in the aircraft. Just FYI

someone on PMDG posted this
The Cockpit Master EXEC light has everything to do with PMDG. The recent update to build .24 changed a number of backend/SDK parameters. One those is the annunciator for the EXEC light. That's why it isn't working properly. Try flicking the anti-collusion light and see if funny things happen with the EXEC light.
the good news the EXEC still works ok
-
I am using the latest bridge, but this problem started with the previous version. When I activate a flight plan or after I make changes in the INIT PREF the light comes on in the 737 FMC but not the Cockpit Master FMC. Execute still works just no light. The Light comes on in all the P3D PMDG planes

the Youtube videos I find are with older versions of SPAD. How is the cockpit master CDU setup I have SpadNext 0.9.1.5 I am having some problems with the bridge software. The CDU is on wait for the bridge but when I start the program, the screen is still in wait mode. If I use Menu P to power it off and back on and start the bridge it works. Before the last release of the bridge software this did not happen. I have the latest firmware as well
-
Are you using the USB cable provided and plugged into the computer, not a USB PCI card or USB Hub. If so, do you have another USB cable to try. The white lines is making me wonder about the cable.
-
This is a great product but has one issue I am having. When everything comes on the first time and I run P3D the 737 FMC displays the CPU. If I close P3D ands start again the aircraft displays the CPU but the cockpit screen is dark (it is on) It works but nothing is displayed. I was hoping that the new Menu P would be a work around but it did not help. I have changed the USb and it is plugged into a USB version 2 or 3 Anything I can try?
-
Thanks, I did not know that, perfect, thanks
-
I cannot remember how the bridge works but I did not know that SPAD.NEXT was needed even though I use it. I do not want to risk it so I hope you get a answer. Actually if the update just added the power off I may hold off, I use P3D
-
I just purchased the PMDG 777 200 and expansion pack. I was able to enter the information into the CPU from Cockpit Master. No double digits but I was seeing that from time to time so I put the USB cable in a USB powered hub and I am not see that anymore
