NAV and COM Radios Issue
Posted: Mon Nov 02, 2015 4:34 pm
Hi, I have a small issue with NAV and COM Radios,
Although they both work properly when comparing to IN SIM BEHAVIOR the displays on actual P&P modules don't update value when SWAP Frequency button is used..
the simplest i can explain is that STANDBY Frequencies do not UPDATE after SWAP
COM RADIO Example:
ACTIVE 130.00 STANDBY 100.00 (what is displayed when sim is started for the first time or rather when OC4BA is started and connects to sim)
when i tune into new Frequency ex. 128.000 Display: A=130.00 S=128.00
press the swap Button Display: A=128.00 S=128.00 SHOULD BE A=128.00 S=130.00
press swap again Display: A=130.00 S=128.00
In other words STANDBY frequency will never update to what was displayed in ACTIVE
NAV RADIO Example
ACTIVE 117.00 STANDBY 113.00
1. tune to new Freq, ex 115.00 Display: A=117.00 S=115.00
2. press the swap Button Display: A=115.00 S=115.00 SHOULD BE A=115.00 S=117.00
3. now with this one is little different when I press the SWAP button again ACTIVE and STANDBY will swap around and display correct values until i change STANDBY to new FREQ then again we get POINT #2 happen and again pressing SWAP again will start swapping displayed frequencies correctly.
My COM radio I recently ordered from OC, has actually 6 digits only 5 are working, but i don't care about that just mentioning it in case OC updated their modules and maybe older ones have only 5 digits...
Again in SIM everything is working OK, so its not a big deal would be nice if they swap properly on P&P modules but not the end of the world.
I tried to compare your most recent script (the full one with OVH and everything as this is what I use) and there are some differences compared with Older versions in the area that corresponds to NAV1 and COM1 radios they used to work correctly in older version, but for now Im not going to mess with that as I am not as good with SIOC.
Anyhow if you can look into the script when you have some time and see if its working OK for you maybe you can point me to something i can change in the script that would make it swap properly. Also my script is obviously very different from yours in matter of OVH as mine is home built so many DEVICE # and INPUT# had to be changed to match my hardware but in case of modules they all set up as they should no need to change anything. so device#'s and Input#'s are as i recall the only things i actually changed from original script and some other things like diplay# for OVH displays of electrical panel and altitude settign but anywyas they all working SUPER only the SWAP in NAV and COM seem to be an issue.
My SIOC ini just in case you wondering
Thanks for your time.
