Hi Luis,
Thank you for this very exhaustive review. So that I can work properly, could you :
- Do not report malfunctions due to the simulator itself
- List only the problems and describe the operating logic on the real airplane

In this way we will improve these instruments ;)

Hi pilots,
I just updated and submited the ATC/TCAS panel.
You can download it in the post 2 (following).

Here is an issue report of one of my friends with multi-monitor setup using your Overhead Panel since some weeks:

1.) The Landing Light Switches stuck until using an assigned hardware switch, then they are free for switching with the mouse.
2.) Exterial Power AVAIL light is sometimes dark, even it´s available, after restarting MSFS it´s lit again.
After this restart, when pushed, the Exterial Power is working but it still says AVAIL not ON.
3.) Sometimes Upper ECAM shows "STROBE LIGHT OFF", even they are AUTO or ON.

The issue I realized at my setup is, that after Strobe Lights were ON, I can switch to AUTO but when trying to switch back to off, the switch flips three times between ON and AUTO, then finsally to OFF.
Kind regards,
Herbert:

Hi Herbert,
Thanks for your report.
Could you specify the versions (A32NX FBW, AirManager, and the instruments) ?
1.) The Landing Light Switches stuck until using an assigned hardware switch, then they are free for switching with the mouse.
I use them every day without problems ... Can you make sure that in the first position, they come out well ? Then for the lighting there is a delay (5-8 seconds) before switching on ...
2.) Exterial Power AVAIL light is sometimes dark, even it´s available, after restarting MSFS it´s lit again.
After this restart, when pushed, the Exterial Power is working but it still says AVAIL not ON.
Could you give me an example location so that I can show the bug? Can you monitor the values ​​of these two variables:
- "EXTERNAL POWER ON","Bool"
- "EXTERNAL POWER AVAILABLE","bool"
3.) Sometimes Upper ECAM shows "STROBE LIGHT OFF", even they are AUTO or ON
Can you reproduce the error or does it only appear sometimes ? Can you monitor the values ​​of these three variables:
- "L:LIGHTING_STROBE_0","num"
- "LIGHT STROBE","bool"
- "L:STROBE_0_AUTO","num"
To put the strobe "off", the only solution that I have found for the moment is to double click downwards ... Attention, on the "auto" position the strobes only light up when the main gear strut is not compressed.

I have the same problems!

Thank you though for the great overhead!

I want to run it via a network with Air Player on a touchscreen panel but:

The landing lights don't move
Ext. power is not iluminated
And a lot of gauges show white text OFF while showing dark / nothing in the sim.

Greetings,

Robert

Hi pilots,
First, please indicate your FBW version.
I have updated the instruments to be compatible with the 0.7.4 stable version. But ! Submission must be reviewed by siminnovation and if accepted they will be online on next shop update (once a month). So, be patient... if you have online version, it will be updated automatically.
I'm working on development version and the overhead will soon have :
- "Opacity" instead "visible" lights logic (so progressive light)
- Sunlight (with the Toddimus831 code)
- Backlight
Stay tune ;)
