Instruments Refreshing

#1 Post by EcstaticAviator »

Hi there,

I've got a strange problem where my instruments keep refreshing every couple of minutes. When using the FBW overhead panel, all the instruments grey out and go to default position and then all reload again. It continuously does this, even without the sim running and it just sitting there.

Thanks for any help

It would help if you gave more details - for example - what is an 'fbw overhead ?
I presume an overhead panel for something - what something ? from where ?
What simulator or game ?
What version of AM and plugin ?
What OS ?

Sounds like an ordinary connection issue. Make sure that you're using the latest plugin, and try the manual connection from the Settings tab.

Sorry more detail

Using the flybywire a32nx overhead panel.

Msfs

Windows 11

Latest air manager and msfs plug-in.

I have tried manual connection as per the wiki but it still does it even when connected through that.

I also have tried the air manager Beta version and it does it on there too

Any other ideas what it might be?

Have you tried another panel and aircraft? The default cessna?
What does that do?

Yes I have tried in other aircraft's and it does it as well. It's like it loses connection for a second and then has to load it again

Did you check if you see a lot of connecting and disconnecting in the log?
