skeller 11 Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Hi all, Did anyone succed in operating the left MCDU on an external device as described in the "MCDU (left only) on an external device" section of the Step-by-Step Guide? I get as far as seeing the MCDU displayed in the browser, but the display is pitch black an none of the keys is working. Tried it in Firefox on the same machine I'm running Prepar3d on, and on an iPhone, both with no luck. Please login to display this image. Please login to display this image.

DaveCT2003 2553 Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 This is something we're currently looking at. To be honest, I didn't try this during the Beta (I'm sure it was tested by one of the guys, I just don't know who), so give me a little time to dig out a second tablet and see if i can make it work. I should be able let you know by sometime tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KConlon 16 Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 I have it working on my iPad. Make sure you run the connector as administrator Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveCT2003 2553 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 I'm coming up with the blank screen and non-working MCDU on my Android tablets... I'll create a bug report and we'll see what we can do to improve this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, but how about using a web browser on the same computer where the sim is running? I thought this was possible? Would help a lot in a multi-monitor setup...

ydelta 4 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Same here, no luck on either an iPad or an external browser, connector ran with admin rights, port 4040 is authorized in the firewall (I tried even desactivating the firewall) but the MCDU remains blank (or black depending on how you see it :) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KConlon 16 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 I use the whole IP address with the port number into the address bar like below.

Deputy Sheriffs masterhawk 799 Posted July 15, 2018 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted July 15, 2018 I had problems during beta, but solved it by running connector with admin rights. I also have P3Dv4 runnIng with admin rights. Try to run both with same rights (admin or not admin). That was required in the past for APC. Make also sure that no firewall is blocking anything.
