Hello guys,
maybe someone could help me.
I can get CIVA working, position alignement, waypoints, NAV, all ok but...
after TO INS does not affect autopilot hdg and after about 5 mins it turns off, no lights, no digits. Nothing to do to switch it on again.
I thought it could be low battery even if engines were working so i checked in FSUIPC battery long life. Nothing.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Ok Marco I'll check it out about electric power.

Kochmedia Concorde does not say anything more than "get the latest version of..", i may say this is the 2003 December version of the plane (and still goodlooking).
Now i have both 1.40 and 1.51, maybe it's an earlier one.
Thanks for your kind and fast reply.
Grazie Ciao, (versione inglese di cortesia verso i tuoi lettori).

> is the way INS communicate to AP the same as FSNavigator does with its flightplan?

Good question. And the answer is: "I don't know"

It all depends if the panel developer integrated CIVA into the gauges (using the CIVA SDK) or if CIVA is just added and there is no "link" between CIVA and the gauges.

In the first case (integrated CIVA) you will have to match the exact CIVA version they used, in the second case it should work with any CIVA version.

I think that if they have integrated CIVA into their gauge then very probably the NavMode gauge would not be required (as they supply an equivalent one), so try searching in panel.cfg for "INS!NavModeTriple", if you can't find it then CIVA has been, almost for sure, "integrated". In such case, if you have a mailbox capable of accepting few megabytes I can send you all major releases so that you can try to find the exact one. Let me know (ASAP as I'm going on holiday the 28th..otherwise you'll have to wait till the 7th of jan09).

Thanks and Merry Christmas and happy 2009 to you as well!
Kind regards
Marco
