MCP issues[SOLVED]

Post by Eytan_Ofir »

Is there a new driver to the zibo maybe? ever since i installed it two years ago it has been doing funny things.
the heading shows the heading im currently flying and not the one im selecting.
the VS window shows the current rate of climb and descend whenever climbing or descending on VNAV
the A/T green arm light dosent turn on
( it does in P3D )
i just didnt bother to post here but just wondering..
thank you

The latest OC4BA_XP v1.3.2 works fine on my PC and others using XPLANE 11.55 and ZIBO v3.45.

I also tested with the latest ZIBO version 3.51.11.

With this latest ZIBO driver, there is a problem with the AT/ARM Led as the ZIBO no longer sends out the correct state of the ATARM value.

You can try to send files in a PM to mvr1918 in Forum.

Also verify that you use the latest version of XPLANE11, ZIBO, SIOC, and OC4BA by sending me the version mumbers.

A newly updated win.xpl is ready for testing.

This new file should correct several issues with the MCP after the latest ZIBO Dataref changes.

Download link https://1drv.ms/u/s!AjRjRKdTF9fGqrpRtdC ... g?e=4Dl62j

Download, unzip and load copy over the existing win.xpl in the XPLANE's Resources/Plugins/OC4BA_XPz/64 folder.

Test and report any issues to be corrected.

Hi
this version actually almost fixed everything. the only problem i have with the zibo is that the speed tape never dissapears when im on vnav.
it just shows the vnav selected speed
but we almost got everything to work (:
got any idea about this one?

thanks as always

The IAS showing in VNAV is known by me. Going to be fixed in the next update coming soon.
