Problem with GF-MCP

Hi,

I get a yellow status light within the PMDG interface. I have the GF-MCP (not Pro). My log looks like this:

Can you help?

Also, the last digit to the far right of the alt indicator on the GF-MCP panel doesn't light up. It does for the default FSX 737. Because of this I can't dial above 10,000`. Any suggestions?

 

Thank you!!

    Hi Mike,

    It's probably one of two things:

    - You haven't correctly added the GIT dll into dll.xml (details in the beta quide manual)

    - You are using an old version of the Goflight Drivers.

    Best wishes

    Thank you Steve!

    Where is the beta guide manual found and what is the latest driver version for GoFlight?

    Thanks again!

    Hi Mike,

    All Programs under PollyPot Software (Goflight Interface Tool User Guide).

    Latest drivers are here: http://www.goflightinc.com/pages/support

    Hi Steve,

    Was wondering, I am only using PMDG's 737 with a GF-MCP (not Pro)... Should I be using the GoFlight PMDG Interface or the GoFlight Interface Tool both found on your website...

     Also, would the latest GoFlight Drivers load if I loaded GF Config Setup 2.23 from GoFlight?

    Thanks,

    Mike Gruesen

    Hi Mike,

    The Goflight PMDG Interface is no longer being developed. GIT replaces it and does much more. GIT will be the product that will support the PMDG 777, so I would suggest moving to it at some point, but there is no rush since you only use the MCP (if you had GF166's I would recommend an immediate move).

    I haven't tried 2.23, but I can't see why you would have a problem. Give it ago and if it doesn't work you can quickly uninstall and reinstall your prior drivers.

    Best wishes

    Steve
