bjratchf 4 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 I flashed to the latest firmware 1.5.4, and my CDU buttons are now not being recognized by SPAD.next. I'm convinced its a firmware problem, changing the hardware IDs and such. Is there a place to download older firmware to flash and try that?

Dean Salman 4 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 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 Link to comment https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/172494-old-firmware-download-spadnext-problems-with-new-firmware/#findComment-1087732 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LesOReilly 314 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 I run the current Hardware Firmware and it is not an Issue... Spad runs fine with it. SPAD has it's own integration with the device so that we can use it with MSFS (and P3D/XP) on the WTCJ4 / FBW A32NX / AS CRJ and the PMDG 737 ....

Dean Salman 4 Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Thanks, I did not know that, perfect, thanks Link to comment https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/172494-old-firmware-download-spadnext-problems-with-new-firmware/#findComment-1087745 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjratchf 4 Posted May 17, 2022 Author Share Posted May 17, 2022 Thanks… that rules out the firmware being the problem. I’m having trouble getting my CDU to talk to spad at all. None of the buttons are responsive within the Spad screen- I’ve set up the pmdg for SDK reporting, and imported the CDU into spad along with the programming string from c0nnex that had all the buttons programmed. But the CDU device just sits there with the screen asking if I’m wanting to use the left or right CDU Link to comment https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/172494-old-firmware-download-spadnext-problems-with-new-firmware/#findComment-1088090 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to hold the MENU key on the unit. That will switch to the menu screen where you press the LSK 1 key to switch to the CDU 1 page. I have used this for hours now as have numerous users in the spad discord. It works...
