PMDG 737 for MSFS does not support pop out windows at the moment and a fix must come from PMDG and ASOBO.

rksoftware will though soon release the new Oi4FS-p737CDU software to let user add the PMDG 737 for MSFS CDU screens to their Opencockpits CDU/FMC hardware modules. No need to scream about pop outs anymore for CDU/FMC owners.

It is now implemeted in the OIPMDG737 add-on driver software.

The Oi4FS_p737CDU v1.0 is now released and available.

As we all know the PMDG 737 for MSFS does not support pop out windows so the virtual screen of the CDUs/FMCs can be attached to the Opencockpits CDU/FMC hardware module.

With Oi4FS_p737CDU that issue is now solved.

Oi4FS_p737CDV v1.0 only support the Capatain's CDU/FCM. Support for the FO's CDU/FMC will be released next week and will be delivered free to users of the Oi4FS_p737CDU.

The Oi4FS_p737CDU is developed as an external program to the PMDG 737 for MSFS and has little to no FPS impact.

Hello Roar,

I can´t stablish the connection with the CDU. The screen is open, I can move it to CDU screen, but no data is showed (see the attached file).

Do I have to let this lines in the 737_options.ini?

[SDK]
EnableDataBroadcast=1
EnableDataBroadcast.0=1
EnableCDUBroadcast.0=1

[mvr1918]

SDK lines in 737_Options.ini should look like this:


[SDK]
EnableDataBroadcast=1
EnableCDUBroadcast.0=1


line1 initiate data outputs for all VC variables
line2 initiate CDU screen data output

To move the open screen window to you FMS/CDU hardware monitor use SHIFT-WIN-L or SHIFT-WIN-R.

When I change the lines and open the FS, the line of CDU disapear.

When I edit the file with Notepad ++, it goes well, but still no data on the screen.

PS; there´s no IDX to CDU in the SIOC. Could this be interfering?

Roar,

Updating my problem: now I have the screen on my FMC, but the buttons don't responde.

[mvr1918]

The CDU buttons should work OK if you have a correct configuration file(PMDG B737.ini in SIOC folder). Your SIOC image tells me you have not a correct configuration file that includes the FMC.

Do you have an old FMC module?

Do you have an old FMC module?

I think yes.
