Title: Installing 3 ADEU and info
Post by simbio on Feb 28^th, 2008, 10:36pm

Hi, Thank you for such incredible Utility, I am really having fun with it.
With it I am obliged to fly sid and star on my own and then maybe some coffe ;).
I have some question sorry to bother.
After look around on install the INS I copy another example for the same aircraft but was an old version for the civa.
So I was tryng to create a new window on the panel but I can't get the third ADEU, I have attach the JPEG and the parameters of the Panel.cfg, I know that there is no need of it but 3 its better then 2 ;).
Just for info, what's make any aircraft to follow the ins just the code inside the panel config, or there is something else.
If I use an aircraft with is proper ins but I want to use your INS, is the autopilot will follow the route after setup correctly?
When we set align and we read 6 095 is the API 6 error but If I have Parking brake and just the APU is because I am inserted wrong lat and long.
In one flight I was following the route with the ins but it start to go left and right and there was a wind of 250/25, was it an AP/aircraft problem or the ins?.
Thank you
Fabrizio Pascucci

Ciao Fabrizio,

Correct, and since it's not needed then the gauge has not been developed.

It depends on the autopilot the aircraft is equipped with. If it is FS default autopilot then the CIVA INS will be able to "reach" it. If it is a fully custom developed autopilot then CIVA will not be able to feed heading values into it.

There may be some error/warning codes to be cleared. Select DSRTK/STR and check Action and Malfunction Codes (if any).
Also please read the manuals 8-)

A 25 knots wind should not cause any problem to the INS, we tested it with winds as strong as 100+ KTS. Are you sure there were no strong wind variations?

I will contact you through email.
