I've updated this XML gauge for the CS 727-100/F and -200/F. Now includes LB / KG and °C / °F display.

Now in the Avsim library, search for:
V-One Gauge for B727-100/F 727-200/F with Call-Outs

The sounds:

• 80 knots
• V1
• VR
• V2
• Gear Up
• Flaps Up
• Slats Retract
• Trim Wheel Sound

The gauge will calculate the correct v-speeds for gross weight using flaps 5, 15 & 25 including the required trim units.
The v-speeds are also adjusted for altitude and temperature.
Optimum FL and EPR are displayed based on current gross weight and are continually updated.
Clean speed (no flaps) is calculated as is Vref30 and Vref40.
Fuel, Gross Weight, OAT (°C or °F) and CG are displayed.
If the current gross weight has exceeded the max gross weight a 'red' warning of overloading is displayed.
Elapsed flight time and fuel used can be reset at anytime by clicking on their displays.

The main gauge is a text display of:

• Vertical Speed
• Pitch
• EPR
• N1%
• Fuel Flow
• TAS
• TAT
• MCT (Maximum Continuous Thrust)
  
  After flap selection, the following will display:
• Flaps selected
• Required Trim/Current Trim
• Vr & V2

Note: EPR, N1% and FF are for Engine 2 only.

Both the main gauge and datacard can be toggled off and on via an icon.

Very, very good job Fsxpaul !

It works perfectly, congratulations... Thank you.

Do you prepare the same gauge for boeing 707?  

Does your V-One gauge work for CS727-200?

Got it, will look forward to the 707 one. I'm currently on a 707 binge so it will be really useful.

Yes a really useful tool and learning aid. It would be great to have one for the 200 as well. Great job.

That sounds great! I'm glad I could contribute to the simming community! Thanks

Make certain to change your cockpit view to the 2D view once to properly initialize the gauge.
If you’ve added the gauge icons to the 'Simicons' (Shift+1), you can click on ‘v1’ to initialize as well.

Also, the v-speeds will not show any value until you select flaps, 5, 15 or 25. All other flap setting (0, 2, 30 and 40) will display '0'.

Paul: In your intruction you indicate that adding the gauge by drag and drop would work just as well; What about the .cfg changes I suppose these would have to be done anyway ?
I just have difficulty keeping up with so many folders open at the same time.

Berlopez

Thanks for your Reply Paul. I managed to install the gauge it showed, the colored numbers and the card and the icon, Unfortunately I seem to have ommitted a change when adding it to one of the panel .cfg files/Or forgot to number something...So I didn't get the sound,as described....Like 80 knts,V1,gearup etc...
I realized this when i began to delete my edits and put the plane back to it's original stage.
I believe my mistake was under the vc cockpit edits?  

Thanks for your reply Paul; I just attempted to reinstall and got the same results...realized I had made a editting mistake and the icon wasn't showing; I fixed that easy enough...Then I tried a flight to test the sounds...
As soon as I the needle hits 80KTS my sim freezes,as I wait a little while to see if it goes to the next step I hear a bell Bung,Bing,Like the error windows makes when something is wrong?
I wil attemp at a later time to c/p the lines you have included in yoour post above to the [VCockpit01] And see if that helps. BTW I have also Mattews alt. call outs which sound on descending...But that shouldn't have anything to do with this?

BTW: How does your machine behave with FSX?; Personally I'm below specs.with a Intel Core 2 Cpu 1.8-1.79 @ 4300 1022 Mb.RAM Nvidia GeForce 7500 LE; Tuned with AlacrityPC I can get FSX to give some descent performance, 18.9 FPS Locked at 20 FPS. via FSX.cfg file.

I suspect your problem is your other sound gauge conflicting with the V-One gauge:

gauge36=CALLOUT_SOUND!dsd_xml_sound3, 0,0,0,0, Sound\CALLOUT\Sound.ini

does not work with

gaugexx=dsd_fsx_xml_sound!Sound,2,2,2,2,\panel\v-one\v-one_Sound.ini

Matthew's sound gauge is using an older version written by Doug Dawson.

I believe I still may have a copy of my first sound.ini file which references dsd_xml_sound3.gau that you're already using. I will look for it.

If you want to fly for now without the V-One sounds, comment out or remove:
gaugexx=dsd_fsx_xml_sound!Sound,2,2,2,2,\panel\v-one\v-one_Sound.ini
gaugexx=dsd_fsx_xml_sound!Debugger, 420,550,600,80

No, When the freeze happens I don't get any message just the freeze...The sound keeps going,as if the sim doesn't notice the freeze ( Strage)? Then when the needle hits 80 KTS the ding comes...Waiting a little longer another one comes,like if correspponding to the gear-up sound?...Then I close it via CRTL+Alt+Del then I notice that down on the task bar there a window dsd_fsx_xml_sound.gau. when I unstall the gauge,ie delete it from everywhere,put in my unedited .cfgs Try to fly I don't freeze...
I added your lines to the [VCockpit01] At the bottom,renumbered them to my next number in sequence...Didn't help?

ie:
...gauge46=CALLOUT_SmallJets!CALLOUTMIN,     0,0,0,0
gauge47=CALLOUT_SmallJets!CALLOUTAPPMIN,  0,0,0,0
gauge48=Captain_Sim.p727.sound!main, 0,0, 10,10, Captain_Sim\727\sound.ini
gauge49=dsd_fsx_xml_sound!Sound,2,2,2,2,\panel\v-one\v-one_Sound.ini
gauge50=dsd_fsx_xml_sound!Debugger, 420,550,600,80

Got them!...After reading your very explicit post,thank you very much Paul   And comparring what I had done..I realized I was missing a folder and of course the renumeration of the gauges; As you state. Now they work and in combination with Mathews alt_calls The 727 is a pleasure to fly  

Hi! I've installed the v-0ne gauge for my cs 727-100 and I can't get it to work at all. I edited both cfg files like it said to do and I check and rechecked to make sure that I didn't make a misstake in the editing of the files. I can't seem to find the the icon file where would it be? Is there another program that has to be loaded for it to work. I using Windows 7 64 bit.

Thanks, Bob out!

another silly question, will this work on the 100 freighter? (F)

Paul, I had a few cracks but was missing icons or in one instance could not install to get actual card to come up. Eventually removed it from the 100F. I don't know enough about the innards of these things. Hopefully one day you may consider expanding to the 100 F and 200 and 200F. I find this incredibly useful.

Just out of curiosity, how are you coming along with the one for the 707?

Lee Park wrote on Jun 23^rd, 2012 at 8:47am:


The 707 gauge is on hold right now as I'm currently working on another project. I'll be a few weeks out for sure.

I think I didn't make my question clear.
MY questions was, when I load "Payload" there are only three "Load Stations" available in FS Fuel/Payload page. Those three load stations are for Captain, FO and FE. No passenger load stations. If I divide total load 15,000 Lbs, I have to put each load 5,000Lbs. This will keep CG all the way nose of the plane.
In  Aircraft cfg Weight/Balance section you can see available Load Stations are 50, but CS did not open those 50 Stations.(May be CS did it and I missed it)
Now, I am testing 727-200  stations, I took all stations and reduced to 87 passenger stations and saved  to Aircraft Cfg, file ( I didn't make any changes for Containers load stations, YET). That is how I am making my TEST flights with out any problem, but I am sure this is  not the correct way to adjust Weight and Balance"stations for 727-100
I was wondering how did you over come proper payload loading?

Paul,
Thanks, all fixed
Sanal

I've updated the V-One gauge to now include the -200...freighters as well!
Also, Pounds (LB), Kilograms (KG), Celsius (C) and Fahrenheit (F) are supported!

Please see first post (original post) for details!

Hi Guys,

This should work ok with Michael's flight model mod?

Hmm I saw in the readme file "IMPORTANT: Do not use any modified .air file! Use only the cs727100.air and cs727200.air original files!"

This means a hard decision.. revert from Michael's mod to use this, or go without V-One mod.. 

Has anybody done any full test flights with both together?

thanks

Thanks Paul

I might give it a try.

Just curious how come you didn't keep Michael's mods? Is it the issue Tanya highlighted in her screenshot?

Or issue with the pitch?

I'm not real familiar with the real 727, so just trying to get the best result possible with what CS have given us, modded or not.

Thanks Paul

Also do you think you'll be doing the 707 Gauge soon

I really like the 707 more than the 727 and would love to use the V-One gauge

Thanks!

Great update. Have all your work for the 737 and 707 as well. Nice to see it included for the freighter and 200 versions. 

Just out of curiosity, did you do anything for the 757 and 767 at all? I have them, as getting my head around that FMC was a little too much at the time.

This is exactly what I needed, thanks!

Okay, this is a good starting point. Please check the following:

You have confirmed that dsd_fsx_xml_sound.gau is now in the \FSX\Gauges folder. Does the V-one gauge work?

What about dsd_xml_sound3.gau? Is it in the \FSX\Gauges folder?

Also, you had success before (02-Jun-2012), try installing Matts callout gauge without the V-one gauge.

Please let me know.

Hello Paul, Thanks for your reply, NO Go! for me. I also have installed the v-one gauge which worked perfectly until I installed the alt_calls and made the edits...Then It make a ding-dong and freeze; ONly way to exit it Crtl+Alt+DEl. And beggin to try again. I had it working one evening flew it an dit was a pleasure, thne the next morning the Gremlins got into my computer and messed thing up??? It didn't work???I've reinstalled new 727's from new download links to have fresh files,edited them accordingly. Just before I has the V-One gauge working...Then I added the alt cals and it got messed up.Now I have to start anew...Again... I wonder if gauges 36 and 38 are conflicting.I tried deleting one of them from the panle entries of the panel section I posted and all these sounds went away...
I'll continue giving this a try tomorrow I've been at it now for more than 48 hours.Is it possible to have them both? Or do the XML'S conflict??The plane load fine with the gauge in yellow showing at the top and when I call the card that shows as well...But! When I Crtl+Alt+"r" to load the cockpit sounds it freezes and I get the ding-dong.(Sorry to repeat)

Yes I do have have dsd_xml_sound3.gau in gauges folder; I was missing the .dll. A simmer I jsut met sent it to me and then i installed and the v-one worked. BUt when I added Matts' alt -calls it all went haywire and Ibegan to get the ding-dong and the freze again.

Here is an image of both the 727 panel.cfg ection and the intructions as I added the entries, I still get the sound and freeze, like is not calling the right XML sound gauge?...And or .dll????? they are both present in my gauges folder

1. When the plane loads the first time the v-one gauge shows and can be called via the icons. When I press Crtl+Shift+R to reload it to get cockpit sounds safeties,altimeter, lights' clicks etc.. it seems to crash and freeze everytime I touch a key I get the ding.dong and the only way to exit the sim is via Task manager,that I know of?
2. Can't say because it doesn't load that far... So the sounds can be heard?
3.In FSX/Gauges Folder
4. Under FSX\Sound folder in a folder "Callouts" ( I added the callout from your post # 53 They work, but I don't know,am sure? Exactly how to add the v-one? Since the way I have added it via intruction, gives me the issue...Ding-Dong and freeze  NOw I messed it up. Trying to install the v-one gauge again, by adding the XML lines at the bottom below the alt_calls and renumbering the gauges all has gone quite, even after Ctrl+Shift+R Stragely it loads Without the ding-dong or Freeze...But without cockpit sounds Here is my section of the VC01 section...I removed the entries to the V-one and only kept those for altcalls and the sound still don sound

affirmative Paul the sound are in exactly that location in my sim, the only differece is I have VLC to play them. so they show with a little orange cone.I had copied them from your post In "Red" and they worked earlier today...But! When i added the V-one entries at the bottom:
"gauge36=dsd_fsx_xml_sound!Sound,2,2,2,2,\panel\v-one\v-one_Sound.ini
gauge37=dsd_fsx_xml_sound!Debugger, 420,550,600,80" ALL SOUNDS got lost...Even after CTRL+ALT+R to load cockpit sounds, ONe thing though is the bing.Bong didn't sound and it didn't freeze???This is the bottom of my [VCockpit01] section now but I've lost all sound, except engines:

ALL I HAVE EDITED SO FAR CORRECTLY IS THE ICONS,WHICH I HAD IN A DOUBLE WINDOW, NOW I HAVE THEM LIKE IN YOUR POST IN THE FIRST PAGE.Just reinstalled and the cockpit sounds are back: Safeties ding.dongs,Altimeter dong and the panel is active again, before i couldn’t even switch the light on via the cursor, as if the panel had got corrupted.

HI Paul VLC is a Media PLayer that was included in this computer with win7 pro I bought The gauge(s) have sounded with it.

Paul, after a very lenghty day with this,I first got V-One to work as I reported. Then I attempted to install Matts' Alt_Calls and ruined everything.
After various attempts 9 hours I stopped, thinking I wasn't thinking straight anymore And deleted the whole thing, Uninstalled 727, reinstalled to get new fresh files and here I am editting air.cfg[Exits] so the jetways connect to the frontpax door and panel .cfg to get the a/p and GPS to have the NAV/ GPS switches to how I have had it before, I am in the middle of this as I write. I believe there is a conflict with Matts gauges and the v-one as I keep getting an error and Bing Bong nwindows makes. When I open task manager to see what the error is behind the window I can see parts."CREATESOUNDBUFFER FAILED and AFTER i CLICK "Ok"DIRECTSOUND FAILED TO INITIALIZE, And after clicking ok, do you want to exit Flight sim...? I am not sure, and don't know anything if Matts' gauges which I installed in the gauges folder have anything to do with this? I still have the originals...???If anyone else has succesfully install these two gauges together,including Matts' replacement gauges,that go in FSX\Gauges, please reveal the secret? Or does this only work with the Originals?

I will update both tomorrow and report,thanks Paul for surely a good idea, I have to start from scratch as I installed a complete new 727 to have clean .cfgs'
My old computer did have Media Player.

berlopez

Ps: Had it working last night impecably together with Matts' alt calls; Saved the panel .cfg folder to disc and memory stick.
Open this morning and the blasted thing gives me again the error sounds and freeze!!!???? Only way to exit is via Task Manager.There I see dsd_fsx_sound.gauge not responding!? In mygauges folder the gauge shows with a Blue content.In my unzipped folder it shows empty!? This can't be happening again?  

OK I manage to get the gauge dsd_fsx_xml_sound.gauge and rename it .dll to fallow the extention and it seems to work again.

After a computer restart,no joy,anymore it's gone quite, fist I got the error and  I removed from the FSX\gauges folder dsd_xml_sound.gauge, leaving another and the dsd_xml_sound,gauge.dll I renamed which worked just a while ago. Now!? no show, no trim,v1,v2,...Why doesn't it keep? This computer uses notesblok to edit these files.

I've been working on an upgrade for the 727 but I can't say when it'll be ready just yet    

I've also been working on the 707 in tantum  

fxpaul - Quick thank you. Great work and a fantastic addon. Sure saves a lot of chart crunching and looking for bits of paper around the PC. Well done from me.

Note - Installed into FSX with SP2 on a Win& 64 bit system. Followed the readme install instructions as provided. Worked well including after the reload of aircraft due to the CS sound issue (will this ever be fixed one wonders?). Gave it a run in the 727-100  and the whole thing worked faultlessly for me. Just like having a real copilot to do the speed calls and the pull up TOLD card is a gem.

Again great stuff and very much appreciated by me. 

Dear Paul
Thank you for the excellent work.

Question: are you using the Flight model mod by Michael2 ?

My weird thing in the -200 is the trim it recommends. Instead of something in the range of 3~5 I get numbers close to 1 for take off TRIM
I had done the aicraft.cfg changes per Michael2 instructions and replaced the cs727200.air file.

When I applied the V-One installation I just changed the couple of changes you instruct for aicraft.cfg (different from Michael2 instructions).

I use the V-one gauge with the Micheal 2 mods. With the two installed, everything works per real world numbers; V speeds, weight, temp, etc.....I stick with the Micheal 2 mods for trim values, and EPR. The combination of these two gauges, along with other fixes really bring the 727 to life, and as far as I can tell, very close to RW flying characteristics as confirmed by RL 727 pilots who have installed both these gauges. Amazing how this glitch filled AC came together as it has. Thanks goes out to Paul. I have his work installed on my 707 and 737 as well. The V-one gauges add so much to these planes.

Cheers,
Brian

Yes, the gauge (yellow text) needs to be visible for the sounds to play.

You can add the following to the panel.cfg to keep visible in all windows:

type=special

For example:

[Window06]
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=480,60
window_pos= 0.0, 0.055
position=0
visible=1
ident=130
type=special
gauge00=..\..\CS_B727-100\panel\V-One!V-One, 0,0,480,60

I agree with BrianG.  The V-One mod plus Michael2's mods are a great combination.  I have a Nav/GPS switch installed and I did the DME2 mod that makes the yellow DME display on the Captain's side display the NAV 2 distance info.  I just got done installing Matt's callouts, and this baby is TRICKED OUT!!

Don't forget about the pressurization fix. Works great but takes some patience and understanding to get it to work properly. But well worth the effort.

Thanks for your work on this Paul.  Works great in terms of letting me know where the trim position is on the aircraft.  Unfortunately without MS Acceleration this aircrafts A/P is a mess.  even with the patch you simply cannot control the elevator properly.  At least now I have some hope of getting the aircraft to settle into a reasonable climb or descent.  Regards,

Justin,

I tested my set-up this morning (FSX with Acceleration).
Performed the the 'Reload' and had all the sounds you've described.
Then I loaded the V-One gauge and still had the altitude alert, fire bell, apu and all the pilot and flight attendant sounds.

Your sounds not working is most likely another issue.
