Hello,

 

I will like to know how to set the ALT LED correctly. It is on even if the autopilot is off. I am using the default profile. I have not change the default profile on the configurator v210.

 

Windows 10.

X-Plane 11

 

Thanks

Hi Ceiba,

 

Can you please first check if you can switch it off with this test tool ?

Thank you.

Sorry I hit the submit button to early. 

It also turn off all of the lights, even though I am selecting the FCU-ALT (bit 4)

If you right click on the ON or OFF button, it affects all the lights simultaneously.

To help narrow this down:

• The context suggests you're asking about MSFS. Please confirm.
• Is this on all the default (included) aircraft you've tried or specific add-on(s)? If the latter, which one(s)?
• Have you checked to ensure there are no key bindings (set in the sim) that activate altitude hold? If there are, clear them and see if that helps.
• Are you using any third-party add-ons that affect the autopilot?

I am not using MSFS. 

X-plane 11.

The behavior on the default aircraft is as I described.

Plugins:

Air Plugin

Gizmo64

PilotEdge

--XP-RealisticPro (macro)

 

No other plugin

That helps a lot. Thanks.

Hi Ceiba,
 

Are you able to temporary deactivate the external plugins as these may interfere with the annunciator signal ?

The goal is to get a clean setup and check at what level the issue occurs. 

 

Another question :
- Is the ALT LED relevant for the aircrafts you fly ?
- Is there a corresponding ALT LED in the simulator, and does it switch OFF while the ALT LED on the Bravo is still ON ?

 

Thank you.

Hi SimWare,

 

I was able to deactivate the external plugins. 

 

- Is the ALT LED relevant for the aircrafts you fly ?

Yes.
- Is there a corresponding ALT LED in the simulator, and does it switch OFF while the ALT LED on the Bravo is still ON ?

No. As soon as I press the physical autopilot button it shows on the sim the ALT LED turns on but it is not activated on the sim.

Then I press the physical alt and activate the sim autopilot alt, I press the physical key for the second time, the sim autopilot alt is deactivated but the LED still on.

 

Thanks
