757 FMC - please help (Read 7671 times)

	I tried to read through the posts but could not find an answer: It really makes me tired when you fly a 2 hour flight just to arrive at your destination and FMC ... gives you the RWY (sel) and STAR (sel) but nothing on the ND or in FltPln screen you desperately try to enter ILS Freq manually while approaching at 240knts and nothing happens and you have to fly manually with almost NO VC lighting down on a runway with a huge cockUP in the cockPIT because the FMC is having Jack Daniels in the galley It's not the first time that an approach is a mess because of a FMC that does not function properly. yes I have the latest AIRAC installed yes I know how to setup / program the FMC (have thousands of hours in the PeMDeeGee 738 and 744 with similar setups) Could someone please help me out here because I would love to get this going and fly without wondering 'if' the same thing will happen. Try land and LFSB (Basel) Rwy15 ILS via ALTIK and tell me if your FMC's (SEL) RWY and STAR work and shows in ND and in FlightPlan list on FMC? � Regards T

	Take a look at these two posts that I did for the Captain Sim 767. Fix for missing T/D in CDU/FMS Fix for missing end of route. They apply to 757 as well.

	Thank you Mark ... I'll give it a try If you only select the RWY does it still have ILS available in NAV pad or do you have to enter the freq manually? Regards Terblanche

	THIS IS A JOKE! Did a flight from EGNM/EDDL. I use a wonderful iPad App AirRoutes for ALL my aircraft using AIRAC ... I followed your steps 1 by 1 - got it to work around the RWY instead of ILS but had to step down through all Nav Points one by one with speed and ALT restriction and still it gave me 'discrepancies' I will park this aerie into a permanent hanger until version 5 is out. Maybe then it will be flyable yet alone enjoyable.

It's unfortunate that sometimes you need to try it a few times, or vary the time to wait before pressing LSK 6L ( <Erase ), before the T/D will stay.

	My impression is that this 'program' do not read the AIRAC database files correctly and if they do, then it is as you said - you have to wait or 'double up' and ERASE without ENTER - or in most cases nothing happens at all and you run out of patience Thank you for your help Mark but I'll wait and see if v5 will fix all of this.

It could be a long fruitless wait. Version 4.6 was supposed to correct the issues in Version 4.4. Do you think Version 5.0 is going to be any different? You better learn to fly it the was it is.

	I am hoping that this problem gets fixed in the 777, so that it can then be fixed for the 757 and 767 - Before they are both redone as completely new products (757 v5.0 and 767 v2.0).

One for the VC CDU/FMC and the other for the 2D CDU/FMC popup. This one is for the CDU/FMC. Left mouse clicking on the CDU Display (and only on the display area) will CLOSE the 2D CDU/FMC.

It is no big deal for me, I'm simply sharing the changes that I have made to the panel.cfg for my Captain Sim 757-200/200F/300. That way, all I do is click on CDU/FMC display in the VC, and the 2D CDU/FMC panel pops up (it beats pressing SHIFT+7 all the time). I also did this to my Captain Sim 767-300 and all the Expansion Models.

	Thanks Mark, your the man. I've been wondering how to do this. Great, no more shift 8. Thanks again Gabe P.S. You should start a post that has all your tweaks and fixes.

Some might have been done by members (who I haven't seen in here for years). I do try to give credit where it is due, so if it isn't my idea, then I won't take the credit for it. Here is another change I make to ALL my addon aircraft (if it isn't already done). I make these changes to all of the [CameraDefinition.XX] entries: External views default: [CameraDefinition.0] Title = "Right Side Window" Guid = {C0D1826B-81C9-4C7E-8C57-E40C4352D47A} Description = View of the right wing from the passenger cabin Origin = Center SnapPbhAdjust = Swivel SnapPbhReturn = FALSE PanPbhAdjust = Swivel PanPbhReturn = FALSE Track = None ShowAxis = FALSE AllowZoom = TRUE InitialZoom = 0.30 ShowWeather = Yes InitialXyz = 3.2, 1.80, -4.00 InitialPbh = 12.00, 0.00, 80.00 XyzAdjust = TRUE Category=Aircraft MomentumEffect=TRUE ClipMode=Minimum xyzRate=0.5 My modification to it: [CameraDefinition.0] Title = "Right Side Window" Guid = {C0D1826B-81C9-4C7E-8C57-E40C4352D47A} Description = View of the right wing from the passenger cabin Origin = Center SnapPbhAdjust = Swivel SnapPbhReturn = FALSE PanPbhAdjust = Swivel PanPbhReturn = FALSE Track = None ShowAxis = FALSE AllowZoom = TRUE InitialZoom = 0.30 ShowWeather = Yes PitchPanRate=30 HeadingPanRate=75 PanAcceleratorTime=0 InitialXyz = 3.2, 1.80, -4.00 InitialPbh = 12.00, 0.00, 80.00 XyzAdjust = TRUE Category=Aircraft MomentumEffect=TRUE ClipMode=Minimum xyzRate=0.5 The default interior views: [CameraDefinition.001] Title = "Captain Seat" Guid = {8ff6c134-098d-409f-baec-caba3f683f98} Origin = Virtual Cockpit MomentumEffect = YES SnapPbhAdjust = Swivel SnapPbhReturn = False PanPbhAdjust = Swivel PanPbhReturn = False Track = None ShowAxis = YES AllowZoom = TRUE InitialZoom = 0.45 SmoothZoomTime = 2.0 ZoomPanScalar = 1.0 ShowWeather = Yes XyzAdjust = TRUE ShowLensFlare=FALSE Category = Cockpit PitchPanRate=20 HeadingPanRate=60 InitialXyz=0.0, 0.0, 0.0 InitialPbh=5, 0, 20 xyzRate=0.5 My modification to it: [CameraDefinition.001] Title = "Captain Seat" Guid = {8ff6c134-098d-409f-baec-caba3f683f98} Origin = Virtual Cockpit MomentumEffect = YES SnapPbhAdjust = Swivel SnapPbhReturn = False PanPbhAdjust = Swivel PanPbhReturn = False Track = None ShowAxis = YES AllowZoom = TRUE InitialZoom = 0.45 SmoothZoomTime = 2.0 ZoomPanScalar = 1.0 ShowWeather = Yes XyzAdjust = TRUE ShowLensFlare=FALSE Category = Cockpit PitchPanRate=30 HeadingPanRate=75 PanAcceleratorTime=0 InitialXyz=0.0, 0.0, 0.0 InitialPbh=5, 0, 20 xyzRate=0.5 The PanAcceleratorTime=0 entry allows for the movement in the views to be instant. None of this waiting for the movement to gain speed! The PitchPanRate=30 and HeadingPanRate=75 mean the movement of your view, is at the same speed as it is in the default VC view (F9). Some [CameraDefinition.XXX] entries have these settings: SnapPbhAdjust = none SnapPbhReturn = False PanPbhAdjust = none PanPbhReturn = False If they do, then the view wont move. You will need to change them to this: SnapPbhAdjust = Swivel SnapPbhReturn = False PanPbhAdjust = Swivel PanPbhReturn = False so that the view can be changed. Another entry is this: MomentumEffect = YES which allows for the "head movement" to happens, which can get awkward when trying to press buttons or knobs. You can change it to this: MomentumEffect = NO So it doesn't happen. If it has NO, you can change it to YES if that is what you prefer. There are only a few addons that have all three PitchPanRate=XX, HeadingPanRate=XX and PanAcceleratorTime=0 Anyway, these are just a few more little tricks you may be interested in, so edit away to your heats content. *Always back the aircraft.cfg* and panel.cfg before editing them, just in case you make a mistake!** - I should have told you this in my first reply, but I forgot. I must be getting old! Note: If you haven't backed them up, reinstalling the aircraft using the repair option, will give you back the original aircraft.cfg and panel.cfg.
