dresoccer4 20 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I've reported an issues about the CRJ not correctly displayed the TOD countdown, but this time I captures more screenshots to show all of the different FMS pages so show I'm doing everything correctly (I think). I created the flight plan route manually (no import) and added an RNAV approach. There are no discontinuities in the route, and the TOD circle is shown on the map and waypoint page. However the normal TOD timer and countdown that is supposed to be there, per the manual, never shows up and there is no PATH or VNAV access. If some kind folks could take a look at the screenshots and let me know if they see a reason why this would be happening. Cheers! Please login to display this image.

LesOReilly 314 Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Did you enable coupled VNAV descent in the iPad settings screen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the only way for me to get PATH on the FMA hi, you don't need to press vnav to get the TOD countdown timer. it should just be there a long way back before the TOD. this is what should appear on the MFD Please login to display this image. The countdown timer. As you can see in my FMS screenshots there is a TOD marker on the map, but no TOD timer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dresoccer4 20 Posted January 23, 2022 Author Share Posted January 23, 2022 I've tried: 1) manually entering an altitude constraint 2) getting rid of all discontinuities 3) ensuring coupled vnav is active 4) filling out all PERF data 5) cruise altitude set 6) programmed an RNAV approach 7) ensuring the TOD is shown on the map and MFD pages However I can never get the TOD countdown timer in the MFD to appear. Please login to display this image. Screenshot showing my manually entered hard altitude constraint, TOD circle, and no TOD timer like there should be Please login to display this image. The sim knows exactly how far and when the TOD will arrive, as shown on this page. Still, there's no TOD timer on the MFD Please login to display this image. ******************* I really want to figure this out because I've got everything else down pat. I can fly the WT CJ4 VNAV perfectly, and it's pretty similar to this. Let's figure this out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRJay 429 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 On the PERF page, is Advisory VNAV switched on? I don't know why it wouldn't be but just something to check that I didn't see in your posts and screenshots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eag_a 9 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 TOD time is messed up anyways, you'll see that even if it shows up it's often wrong and doesn't match the TOD indicated in the DATA screen. ETA values are also wrong etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raptor05121 84 Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 I am also experiencing this issue, as well as the perpetual advisory snowflake shooting up and down when crossing fixes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dresoccer4 20 Posted January 28, 2022 Author Share Posted January 28, 2022 I just loaded a began a new flight with a new origin/destination and am having the same issue yet again. The TOD green circle is appearing on the map so the flight computer does indeed know exactly where and when the TOD is but still for some reason won't show it on the MFD like it's supposed to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dresoccer4 20 Posted January 28, 2022 Author Share Posted January 28, 2022 UPDATE: so the mystery continues. during this flight I did the exact setup and config as many other flights, except this time the TOD counter appeared. so strange Please login to display this image.
